< Psalms 97 >
1 For David, when his land is established. The Lord reigns, let the earth exult, let many islands rejoice.
Bawipa taw boei na ang ngawih dawngawh, Khawmdek zeel seh; ak hla na ak awm tuisang lak khqi awm zeel u seh.
2 Cloud, and darkness are round about him; righteousness and judgement are the establishment of his throne.
Myi ingkaw than ing zawl nawh; dyngnaak ingkaw thymnaak ce a boei ngawihdoelh hawihnaak na awm hy.
3 Fire shall go before him, and burn up his enemies round about.
A haiawh mai cet nawh a kengsam awhkaw a thunkhakhqi ce uih sak hy.
4 His lightnings appeared to the world; the earth saw, and trembled.
A Khawk phla ing Khawmdek ve coei hlap hlap nawh; Khawmdek ing a huh awh thyn hy.
5 The mountains melted like wax at the presence of the Lord, at the presence of the Lord of the whole earth.
Tlangkhqi awm Khawmdek a Bawipa haiawh khawiut amyihna tle uhy.
6 The heavens have declared his righteousness, and all the people have seen his glory.
Khankhqi ing a dyngnaak khypyi unawh, thlang boeih ing a boeimangnaak ce hu uhy.
7 Let all that worship graven images be ashamed, who boast of their idols; worship him, all you his angels.
Myihlip ak bawkkhqi boeih taw chahphyi uhy, myihlip awh ak oek qu thlangkhqi ce nangmih khawsakhqi boeih ing amah ce bawk lah uh!
8 Sion heard and rejoiced; and the daughters of Judea exulted, because of your judgements, O Lord.
Zion ing ang zaak awh ce zeel nawh Judah qam awhkaw vangcakhqi awm Bawipa, nang ak awidengnaakkhqi awh amik kaw zeel hy.
9 For you are Lord most high over all the earth; you are greatly exalted above all gods.
Nang taw, Bawipa, Khawmdek boeih ak khan awh Sawsang Soeih na awm hyk ti; khawsakhqi boeih ak khan awh zoeksang na awm hy.
10 You that love the Lord, hate evil; the Lord preserves the souls of his saints; he shall deliver them from the hand of sinners.
Bawipa ak lungnaak thlangkhqi ingtaw ak che ce sawh na u seh, amah a ypawm thlangkhqi ce awm pyi nawh thlakche a kut khui awhkawng hul hy.
11 Light is sprung up for the righteous, and gladness for the upright in heart.
Thlakdyng ak khan awh vangnaak awm nawh kawlung ak dyngkhqi venawh zeelnaak awm hy.
12 Rejoice in the Lord, you righteous; and give thanks for a remembrance of his holiness.
Nangmih thlakdyngkhqi aw, Bawipa awh zeel unawh taw, ang ming ciim ce kyihcah lah uh.
