< Psalms 17 >

1 A Prayer of David. Lord, listen to my justice, attend to my supplication. Pay attention to my prayer, which is not from deceitful lips.
O Yahweh Pakai adih thumna a kaka ogin hi nei jahpeh in, katao nahi nei ngaipeh in, lungthengsel le dih tah katao ahi.
2 Let my judgment proceed from your presence. Let your eyes behold fairness.
Kathem chan na neiphondoh peh'in, ajeh chu nangin thudih a natong namuchet ahi.
3 You have tested my heart and visited it by night. You have examined me by fire, and iniquity has not been found in me.
Nangin kalunggel ho napatep jin, janteng jongle kalungsung navelhaji. Nangin kapum changin neivechillin kathepmo na namupoi; kakamsung jenga jong set na potlou ding ahitai.
4 Therefore, may my mouth not speak the works of men. I have kept to difficult ways because of the words of your lips.
Keiman nathupeh Dan dungjuiin, migilou ho le mi-engseho ho khonung kajui ji poi.
5 Perfect my steps in your paths, so that my footsteps may not be disturbed.
Kakalson dan hin nalampi kajui jingin nangma lampia konnin kapotdoh pon ahi.
6 I have cried out because you, O God, have listened to me. Incline your ear to me and heed my words.
Keima nangma komma taova kahi ajeh chu O Elohim Pathen nangin neisanpeh teiding kahei. Kataona hi lunglut tah'in neingaipeh in.
7 Make your mercies wonderful, for you save those who hope in you.
Nami ngailutna longlou chu kidangtah in neimusah'in, agalmitea konna hoidohna ngaichaho chu nathahatna gimneitah chun nahuh doh ji e.
8 From those who resist your right hand, preserve me like the pupil of your eye. Protect me under the shadow of your wings,
Nangman namit teni na chintup jing bangin keima jong nei vesuijin. Nalhaving limnoija chun neisellin.
9 from the face of the impious who have afflicted me. My enemies have surrounded my soul.
Kavel a eidoujing migilouho a kon in eivengtup in, eithatgo kamelma hoa konnin nei huhdoh in.
10 They have concealed their fatness; their mouth has been speaking arrogantly.
Amahohi mi khotona bei ahiuvin akiletsah nao thucheng chu ngaitan!
11 They have cast me out, and now they have surrounded me. They have cast their eyes down to the earth.
Amahon eihin juilutnun eiumkimvel uvin tola selhuh dingin agomkom ahol un ahi.
12 They have taken me, like a lion ready for the prey, and like a young lion dwelling in hiding.
Anehding changlhih le keipi bahkai hangtah bang le keipinou vin gamthip lai matding avetlhih le tobang ahiuve.
13 Rise up, O Lord, arrive before him and displace him. Deliver my soul from the impious one: your spear from the enemies of your hand.
Hung kipat tan O Yahweh Pakai kidintepin lang seplhu jengin! Nachemjammin migilouhoa konnin neihuhdoh in.
14 Lord, divide them from the few of the earth in their life. Their gut has been filled from your hidden stores. They have been filled with sons, and they have bequeathed to their little ones the remainder.
O Yahweh Pakai naban thathatnin vannoia ama phatchomna ngaito hohi sumangin. Amavang nangma goulu hohi nangman vah va jing in. Achateu neijong suhnengpeh inlang ason apahteu goulo ding geija adalhah peh theina diuvin gontoh peh'in.
15 But as for me, I will appear before your sight in justice. I will be satisfied when your glory appears.
Monabeija hinkho Kaman jeh a namel kamu teiding ahi. Kathodoh tengleh nangma toh kimaitoa ikimuto ding chule kalungnachim tante.
