Psalms 16
1 A writing of David. Keep me, O Lord; for I have hoped in you.
Aw Khawsa, ni loet sak lah, namah a venawh ni kang thuk law.
2 I said to the Lord, You are my Lord; for you has no need of my goodness.
Bawipa venawh, Nang taw ka Bawipa na awm hyk ti; nang kaa taw leeknaak tehca awm am ta nyng,” ka ti.
3 On behalf of the saints that are in his land, he has magnified all his pleasure in them.
Qam khuiawh ak awm thlang ciimkhqi ce, Boeimangnaak ing ak be kai a zeelnaak kungkhqi na awm uhy.
4 Their weaknesses have been multiplied; afterward they hasted. I will by no means assemble their bloody meetings, neither will I make mention of their names with my lips.
Ak chang khawsakhqi venna ak cenkhqi ak kawseetnaak taw pung khqoet kaw. A mingmih a thi ce khawsakhqi hamna am hawk pe kawng nyng saw, a mingmih ang ming awm ka hui awh ap kqawn qoe kawng nyng.
5 The Lord is the portion of mine inheritance and of my cup: you are he that restores my inheritance to me.
Bawipa, ka huh hly kawi ingkaw ka boet ce ni taak pe hyt hawh tiksaw; ka huh hly kawi ce ni taak pe khak hawh hyk ti.
6 The lines have fallen to me in the best places, yes, I have a most excellent heritage.
Khawqi ing a leeknaak soeih awh kai aham khan qu nawh; ka qo pang hly kawi awh ce zeel soeih nyng.
7 I will bless the Lord who has instructed me; my reins too have chastened me even till night.
Khaw anik poek peekkung Bawipa ce kyihcah vang; khawmthan awh awm kak kawlung ing ni cawngpyi hy.
8 I foresaw the Lord always before my face; for he is on my right hand, that I should not be moved.
Bawipa ce ka haiawh awm sak poepa nyng. Anih ce kak tang ben awh a awm dawngawh, am thyn qoe ti kawng.
9 Therefore my heart rejoiced an my tongue exulted; moreover also my flesh shall rest in hope:
Cedawngawh kak kawlung zeel nawh kam lai ak kaw zeel hy; ka pum awm a sa loet kaw.
10 because you will not leave my soul in hell, neither will you suffer your Holy One to see corruption. (Sheol h7585)
Ikawtih, nang ing phyi awh am ni cehta hyt kawm tiksaw, nak Thlang Ciim ce am thu sak kawp ti. (Sheol h7585)
11 You have made known to me the ways of life; you will fill me with joy with your countenance: at your right hand [there are] delights for ever.
Hqingnaak lam ce nani sim sak hawh a dawngawh; na haiawh zeelnaak, nak tang ben awhkaw kumqui zeelnaak ing ni be sak kawp ti.
