Psalms 52
1 For the end, [a Psalm] of instruction by David, when Doec the Idumean came and told Saul, and said to him, David is gone to the house of Abimelech. Why do you, O mighty man, boast of iniquity in [your] mischief? All the day
Edom Doeg loh cet tih Saul la, “David te Ahimelek im la cet coeng,” a ti nah tih a puen vaengkah, aka mawt ham David kah hlohlai. Hlangrhalh nang loh boethae neh bahamlae na thangthen uh. Pathen kah sitlohnah he hnin takuem ah cak.
2 your tongue has devised unrighteousness; like a sharpened razor you have wrought deceit.
Na lai loh a talnah a moeh. Palyal neh paihat bangla haat tih a hlueng.
3 You have loved wickedness more than goodness; unrighteousness better than to speak righteousness. (Pause)
Hno then lakah boethae na lungnah. Duengnah lakah a honghi te na thui. (Selah)
4 You has loved all words of destruction, [and] a deceitful tongue.
Hlangthai palat kah a lai loh dolhnah ol boeih te a lungnah.
5 Therefore may God destroy you for ever, may he pluck you up and utterly remove you from [your] dwelling, and your root from the land of the living. (Pause)
Te cakhaw Pathen loh nang te a yoeyah la m'voeih vetih, nang te m'poep ni. Te vaengah dap khui lamkah nang te m'phuk vetih, mulhing rhoek kah khohmuen lamloh nang m'phuk ni.
6 And the righteous shall see, and fear, and shall laugh at him, and say,
Tedae aka dueng rhoek loh a hmuh uh vaengah a rhih uh vetih anih te,
7 Behold the man who made not God his help; but trusted in the abundance of his wealth, and strengthened himself in his vanity.
“Hlang khaw ke, Pathen vik amah kah lunghim la khueh pawt tih a khuehtawn cangpai dongah pangtung tih a talnah neh tanglue,” tila a nueih thiluh.
8 But I am as a fruitful olive in the house of God: I have trusted in the mercy of God for ever, even for evermore.
Tedae kai tah Pathen im kah olive thinghing bangla kumhal ah Pathen kah sitlohnah te ka pangtung yoeyah.
9 I will give thanks to you for ever, for you have done [it]: and I will wait on your name; for [it is] good before the saints.
Namah loh na saii coeng dongah kumhal ah nang kan uem vetih na then dongah na ming te na hlangcim rhoek hmuh ah ka lamtawn ni.
