< Psalms 63 >

1 A Psalm of David, when he was in the wilderness of Idumea. O God, my God, I cry to you early; my soul has thirsted for you: how often has my flesh [longed] after you, in a barren and trackless and dry land!
Aw Khawsa, nang taw ka Khawsa na na awm dawngawh nang ce ni sui khak nyng; tui a khanaak qamkoh khuiawh, ka hqingnaak ing tui na ni ngaih nawh, ka pum ing na myi kyng na hy.
2 Thus have I appeared before you in the sanctuary, that I might see your power and your glory.
Hun cim awh nang ce ni hu hawh nyng saw nak thaawmnaak ingkaw na boeimangnaak ce toek nyng.
3 For your mercy is better than life: my lips shall praise you.
Na lungnaak ce hqingnaak anglakawh awm a leek khqoet a dawngawh, ka hui ing nang ce nim kyihcah kaw.
4 Thus will I bless you during my life: I will lift up my hands in your name.
Ka hqing khuiawh nang ce nim kyihcah kawng nyng saw, nang ming awh ka kut ve phyl kawng.
5 Let my soul be filled as with marrow and fatness; and [my] joyful lips shall praise your name.
Buh ak tui soeih ka phyi amyihna ka hqingnaak ing ak phoen phyi kawmsaw; ka hui ing laa sak doena kam kha ing nang nim kyihcah kaw.
6 Forasmuch as I have remembered you on my bed: in the early seasons I have meditated on you.
Ka ihkhun awhkawng nang ce ni sim loet kawng nyng saw; than zung namah ce ning ngai kawng.
7 For you have been my helper, and in the shelter of your wings will I rejoice.
Nang taw ka hulkung na na awm dawngawh, nang hla hlip awh namah kyihcah doena laa sa kawng.
8 My soul has kept very close behind you: your right hand has upheld me.
Ka hqingnaak ing namah awh hawi nawh; namah ing nak tangkut ing nim tu hyk ti.
9 But they vainly sought after my soul; they shall go into the lowest parts o the earth.
Kai him aham ak caikhqi ce plawci bit kawm uh; dek a dungnaak khuina nu kun bit kawm uh.
10 They shall be delivered up to the power of the sword; they shall be portions for foxes.
Zawzi ce zawk kawm usaw kqawng ui a buh na coeng bit kawm uh.
11 But the king shall rejoice in God; every one that swears by him shall be praised; for the mouth of them that speak unjust things has been stopped.
Cehlai, sangpahrang taw Khawsa awh zeel kaw; Khawsa ang ming phuk doena awi ak kamkhqi ing anih ce kyihcah kawm uh, Cehlai qaai awi ak kqawnkhqi am kha taw sit kaw.
