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
Nang tha ak awm soeih, kawtih ik-oeih amak leek awh nang oek qu hy voei? Khawsa mik huh awh chah qai na ak awm nang, kawtih myngawi nang oek qu paqap?
2 your tongue has devised unrighteousness; like a sharpened razor you have wrought deceit.
Nam lai ing seetnaak doeng cai sih nawh; zawzi ak hqat thak bat amyihna awm hy, qaai kqawnnaak doeng ce sai hyk ti.
3 You have loved wickedness more than goodness; unrighteousness better than to speak righteousness. (Pause)
Ik-oeih leek anglakawh ik-oeh che ce lungna lat tiksaw, awitak kqawn anglakawh amak thym awih kqawn ce ngaih bet hyk ti.
4 You has loved all words of destruction, [and] a deceitful tongue.
Aw qaai kqawnnaak ing ak be lai! Awih tlo kqawn ce lungna hyk ti.
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)
Khawsa ing kumqui plamnaak na ni nuk thla kaw; nang ce ni qawt kawmsaw na khawnghi im awhkawng nik dawk plawk kaw; na awmnaak qam awhkawng nak kqa mah na ni phu kaw.
6 And the righteous shall see, and fear, and shall laugh at him, and say,
Thlakdyngkhqi ing hu kawm usaw kqih kawm uh; a mingmih ing qaih na kawm usaw, vemyihna,
7 Behold the man who made not God his help; but trusted in the abundance of his wealth, and strengthened himself in his vanity.
Khawsa ce vawngcak na taak kaana amah a boeinaak ypna lat nawh thlang hqenaak ben awh tha ak awm thyk thlang vawh awm hy ve!” tina kawm uh.
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.
Cehlai, kai taw Khawsa ip khuiawh ak qah olive thing amyihna awm nyng; amak dyt thai Khawsa lungnaak ce ni kumqui ingkaw kumqui dyna ka ypnaak.
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.
Na ik-oeih sai awh kumqui dyna ni zoeksang kawng nyng saw; namah ang ming awh ngaih-unaak ce ta kawng nyng, kawtih namah ang ming taw leek hy. Nak thlang ciimkhqi haiawh nang ce nim kyih kawng nyng.
