Psalms 18
1 Unto the end. For David, the servant of the Lord, who spoke the words of this canticle to the Lord, in the day that the Lord delivered him from the hand of all his enemies and from the hand of Saul. And he said: I will love you, O Lord my strength.
Keiman nangma kangailui Yahweh Pakai; Nangma hi kathahatna nahi.
2 The Lord is my firmament, my refuge, and my liberator. My God is my helper, and I hope in him: my protector, and the horn of my salvation, and my support.
Yahweh Pakai hi kasongpi, kakulpi, chuleh eihuhhingpu ahin, Elohim ka Pathen hi kasongpi ahin eiveng tup jing ahi. Amahi kalumdal, eihuhhinga thahat chu ahin, chuleh kahoidohna munpi chu ahi.
3 Praising, I will call upon the Lord. And I will be saved from my enemies.
Keiman thangvah dinga lomtah Yahweh Pakai chu kakouvin, aman kamelmatea konnin eihuhdoh'in ahi.
4 The sorrows of death surrounded me, and the torrents of iniquity dismayed me.
Thina khoisatna chun eiumkimvel tan, manthahna twipi chun eichup tan ahi.
Damun lungkhamna chun eiumkimvelin, kalampi a thinan thang akam e. (Sheol h7585)
6 In my tribulation, I called upon the Lord, and I cried out to my God. And he listened to my voice from his holy temple. And my cry in his presence entered into his ears.
Ka lungkham val phatnin Yahweh Pakai chu kakouvin, Elohim ka Pathen komma chun panpi ngaichan kataovin Aman ahouin thenga konnin kataona asangin ahi.
7 The earth was shaken, and it trembled. The foundations of the mountains were disturbed, and they were shaken, because he was angry with them.
Hi jouchun leiset akilingin akihot e. Molbul ho jeng jong kihot e ajeh chu Elohim Pathen lunghang a ahi.
8 A smoke ascended by his wrath, and a fire flared up from his face: coals were kindled by it.
Yahweh Pakai nah hom a meikhu ahung potdoh in, meikou gimneitah akam a konnin ahungkou doh'in chuleh Mei-am al lenglung Ama-a konnin ahung koudoh'in ahi.
9 He bent the heavens, and they descended. And darkness was under his feet.
Aman vanho chu ahongdoh'in meilom thimletlut chu ahin chotphan ahung kumsuh in,
10 And he ascended upon the cherubim, and he flew: he flew upon the feathers of the winds.
Yahweh Pakai chu vantil pipui khat chunga atouvin, huipi chu alhavingin amangin alengin ahi.
11 And he set darkness as his hiding place, with his tabernacle all around him: dark waters in the clouds of the air.
Yahweh Pakai chu muthim in ahung kitom in, meilom twi jingletlut pumin ahung lhungin ahi.
12 At the brightness that was before his sight, the clouds crossed by, with hail and coals of fire.
Yahweh Pakai vah'in ahintom chu meilom satah'in ahinkhu khum in gelchang le mei-am chu gojuh'in ahung julhan ahi.
13 And the Lord thundered from heaven, and the Most High uttered his voice: hail and coals of fire.
Yahweh Pakai chu vanna konnin ahung kisen in hatchungnung ogin chu gelchang leh mei-am koulah achun akithongin ahi.
14 And he sent forth his arrows and scattered them. He multiplied lightnings, and he set them in disarray.
Aman athalpi ahin kapmin agalmiho chu athe cheh'in, avah em lahlah chun amaho chu asuboi gamtan ahi.
15 Then the fountains of waters appeared, and the foundations of the world were revealed, by your rebuke, O Lord, by the inspiration of the Spirit of your wrath.
O Yahweh Pakai nangin nagalmi ho napho a lunghangtah a nakisen chun twikhanglen ato geijin akikangin, leiset bulpi jouse jong akeuvin aumjie.
16 He sent from on high, and he accepted me. And he took me up, out of many waters.
Aman vanna konnin akhut ahin lhangin eihin kaidoh'in, twipi thuh lah'a kon in jong eikaidoh'in ahi.
17 He rescued me from my strongest enemies, and from those who hated me. For they had been too strong for me.
Aman kagalmi hattah tah ho a konin eihuh doh in, kasang a hatjo ka dougal hoa kon in eihuhdoh'in ahi.
18 They intercepted me in the day of my affliction, and the Lord became my protector.
Hahsatna kato pettah'in amahon eihin delkhum un ahinlah Yahweh Pakai in eipanpin ahi.
19 And he led me out, into a wide place. He accomplished my salvation, because he willed me.
Aman kahoidohna mun nah eipuilut in eihuhdoh tai ajeh chu ama kipana kahi.
20 And the Lord will reward me according to my justice, and he will repay me according to the purity of my hands.
Yahweh Pakai in thildih kaboljeh in kipaman eipen mona kaneilou jeh'in eikiledohsah tai.
21 For I have preserved the ways of the Lord, and I have not behaved impiously before my God.
Keiman Yahweh Pakai lampi kajui in, thilse lam jon'in Elohim Pathen'a kon'in kakiheimang poi.
22 For all his judgments are in my sight, and his justice, I have not pushed away from me.
Keiman Yahweh Pakai chonphatna lampi kajui jingin, a Dan thupeh ho kapaidoh khapoi.
23 And I will be immaculate together with him, and I will keep myself from my iniquity.
Elohim Pathen masangah nolnabei kahin, chonsetna kon'in kaki kangse jing e.
24 And the Lord will reward me according to my justice and according to the purity of my hands before his eyes.
Yahweh Pakai in thildih kaboljeh in Aman kipaman eipejin ahi. Aman themmonabei kahi amui.
25 With the holy, you will be holy, and with the innocent, you will be innocent,
Mikitah kom'ah nangmatah jong nakitah'in, monabei ho kom'ah monabei nahi.
26 and with the elect, you will be elect, and with the perverse, you will be perverse.
Milungtheng ho kom'ah nalungtheng in ahinlah miphalouho kom'ah nakhohjin ahi.
27 For you will save the humble people, but you will bring down the eyes of the arrogant.
Nangin mikineosah ho nahuhdohjin ahinla mikiletsah ho nasujumjin ahi.
28 For you illuminate my lamp, O Lord. My God, enlighten my darkness.
Nangin thaomei neidetpeh'in, Yahweh Pakai, Elohim ka Pathen'in kamuthim jong neisalvah peh e.
29 For in you, I will be delivered from temptation; and with my God, I will climb over a wall.
Nangma hatna chun kagalmi hi neisuhchip peh'in Elohim ka Pathen toh kapankhom poupou leh itobang bang sang hijongleh kakal ngapchan ahi.
30 As for my God, his way is undefiled. The eloquence of the Lord has been examined by fire. He is the protector of all who hope in him.
Elohim Pathen lampi chu nolnabei ahi! Yahweh Pakai kitepna jouse alolhing jinge. Amahi ahuhdoh ding ngaicha jouse dinga lum le pho ahi.
31 For who is God, except the Lord? And who is God, except our God?
Yahweh Pakai tailou pathen dang um'am? Elohim Pathen tailou songpi det dang um'am?
32 It is God who has wrapped me with virtue and made my way immaculate.
Hiche Elohim Pathen hin eihatdoh sah'in kalampi jong hoibitnapen ahisah ahi.
33 It is he who has perfected my feet, like the feet of deer, and who stations me upon the heights.
Aman molsang hahsa chung dunga kadindet theina din kakeng jong sakhi keng bang'in atah sah e.
34 It is he who trains my hands for battle. And you have set my arms like a bow of brass.
Aman kakhut teni jong galsatna a manthei dingin agongin, kabanjang jong sum-eng thalpi loithei dingin ahatsah'in ahi.
35 And you have given me the protection of your salvation. And your right hand sustains me. And your discipline has corrected me unto the end. And your discipline itself will teach me.
Nangman nagaljona lum chu neipetan nabanjetnin neipanhun ahi. Neikithopina hin eithupi sah'in ahi.
36 You have expanded my footsteps under me, and my tracks have not been weakened.
Nang man kakeng phang tenin alhonal louna dingin kalampi neikehlet peh'in ahi.
37 I will pursue my enemies and apprehend them. And I will not turn back until they have failed.
Keiman kagalmite kadel'in kaman'in ahi; amahohi kajo kahsen katangpon ahi.
38 I will break them, and they will not be able to stand. They will fall under my feet.
Amahohi ahung ki thodoh jou louna diuvin kasat lhun kakeng noijah akijammun ahi.
39 And you have wrapped me with virtue for the battle. And those rising up against me, you have subdued under me.
Nangin kagalsatna dingin thahatnan neivon in; Nangman kagalmite chu kakengphang noi a neikoipeh e.
40 And you have given the back of my enemies to me, and you have destroyed those who hated me.
Nangin angongchang'u neichotpha sah'in eivetda ho jouse chu kasumang sohtan ahi.
41 They cried out, but there was none to save them, to the Lord, but he did not heed them.
Amahon panpi athummun koiman ahung huhdoh pouve. Amahon Yahweh Pakai akouvun ahinla Aman adonbut pon ahi.
42 And I will crush them into dust before the face of the wind, so that I will obliterate them like the mud in the streets.
Keiman amaho chu huilah a vutvai kithethang bangin tol ah kagoibong sel'in, bonlhoh lah'a kasunat gamatai.
43 You will rescue me from the contradictions of the people. You will set me at the head of the Gentiles.
Nangin eihouse jing ho chungah galjona neipetan ahi. Nangin namtin vaipi chungah vaihom'in neipansah tan ahi. Kanahet phahlou miho jeng jong kalhachan ahungpang tauvin ahi.
44 A people I did not know has served me. As soon as their ears heard, they were obedient to me.
Kamin ajah jah'un kanoijah alut un gamchommi hojeng jong ka-anga akisunem gamtauvin ahi.
45 The sons of foreigners have been deceitful to me, the sons of foreigners have grown weak with time, and they have wavered from their paths.
Hansanna aneijou tapouvin kithing pumpum'in ka-ang ahinbel tauvin ahi.
46 The Lord lives, and blessed is my God, and may the God of my salvation be exalted:
Yahweh Pakai ahing jinge, kasongpia apanjeh'in kathangvah e! Ka sochatna Elohim ka Pathen chu loupi jing tahen!
47 O God, who vindicates me and who subdues the people under me, my liberator from my enraged enemies.
Amahi eibolse ho lethuh jinga Elohim ka Pathen chu ahin, aman namtin vaipi hi eisuhnem peh'in kanoijah eikoipeh tai.
48 And you will exalt me above those who rise up against me. From the iniquitous man, you will rescue me.
Chuleh kagalmitea konnin eihuhdoh'in nangman kagalmiten aphah joulouna munnah neikoijin, eidouva mi-engse hoa konnin neihoidohsah tan ahi.
49 Because of this, O Lord, I will confess to you among the nations, and I will compose a psalm to your name:
Hichejeh hin O Yahweh Pakai namtin vaipi lah'a nathangvah ingkate, na min vahchoinan la sang nge.
50 magnifying the salvation of his king, and showing mercy to David, his Christ, and to his offspring, even for all time.
Nangin leng a natun pa din goljona loupitah chu napetai; Chuleh nathaonupa David leh achilhahte chunga nalungset longlou namusah e.
