Psalms 54

1 For the end, amongst Hymns of instruction by David, when the Ziphites came and said to Saul, Behold, is not David hid with us? Save me, O God, by your name, and judge me by your might.

Kathutkung: Devit Oe Cathut, na min lahoi na rungngang haw. Na thaonae hoi lawk na ceng pouh haw.

2 O God, hear my prayer; listen to the words of my mouth.

Oe Cathut, ka ratoum e heh thai haw. Ka dei e lawk heh na thai pouh haw.

3 For strangers have risen up against me, and mighty men have sought my life: they have not set God before them. (Pause)

Bangkongtetpawiteh, ramlouknaw ni kai taranlahoi a thaw awh teh, rep kacuengroenaw ni thei hanlah a kâcai awh. Cathut minhmai khoeroe khen awh hoeh. (Selah)

4 For behold! God assists me; and the Lord is the helper of my soul.

Khenhaw! Cathut teh na kabawmkung doeh. BAWIPA teh ka hringnae karingkungnaw koe ao.

5 He shall return evil to mine enemies; utterly destroy them in your truth.

A tawksak awh e thoenae hah ama ni a patho han. Ahnimouh teh na lawkkatang hoi raphoe haw.

6 I will willingly sacrifice to you: I will give thanks to your name, O Lord; for [it is] good.

Kai hai lungthocalah hoi nang koe thuengnae ka sak han. Oe BAWIPA, na min teh ka pholen han. Bangkongtetpawiteh, nang teh na hawi.

7 For you have delivered me out of all affliction, and mine eye has seen [my desire] upon mine enemies.

Kai hah runae phunkuep thung hoi na hlout sak teh, ka tarannaw koe ka phat e hah ka mit ni khei a hmu toe.
