< Psalms 20 >
1 Unto the end. A Psalm of David. May the Lord hear you in the day of tribulation. May the name of the God of Jacob protect you.
Katoeng kruek zaehoikung hanah. David ih saam laa. Dawnrai hoi na oh naah Angraeng mah na lok tahngai pae nasoe loe, Jakob ih Sithaw ahmin mah na pakaa nasoe.
2 May he send you help from the sanctuary and watch over you from Zion.
Hmuenciim hoiah nang abomh hanah patoeh nasoe loe, Zion hoiah thacakhaih na paek nasoe.
3 May he be mindful of all your sacrifices, and may your burnt-offerings be fat.
Na tathlang ih hmuennawk boih panoek nasoe loe, na sak ih angbawnhaih to talawk nasoe.
4 May he grant to you according to your heart, and confirm all your counsels.
Na koehhaih palungthin baktih toengah, na paek nasoe loe, na poekhaihnawk boih acungsak nasoe.
5 We will rejoice in your salvation, and in the name of our God, we will be magnified.
Na pahlonghaih pongah kang hoe o moe, aicae Sithaw ih ahmin hoiah pazawkhaih kahni ka payang o han: na hnik ih hmuennawk boih Angraeng mah na paek nasoe.
6 May the Lord fulfill all your petitions. Now I know that the Lord has saved his Christ. He will hear him from his holy heaven. The salvation of his right hand is in his power.
A qoih ih kami loe Angraeng mah pahlong; thacak pahlonghaih a bantang ban hoiah anih ih lok to angmah ih kaciim van hoiah tahngai pae, tiah vaihi ka panoek boeh.
7 Some trust in chariots, and some in horses, but we will call upon the name of the Lord our God.
Thoemto kaminawk loe hrangleengnawk to oep o, thoemto kaminawk loe hrangnawk to oep o: toe kaicae loe kaimacae Angraeng Sithaw ih ahmin ni ka oep o.
8 They have been bound, and they have fallen. But we have risen up, and we have been set upright.
Nihcae loe lu takhum o moe, amtim o: toe kaicae loe angthawk o moe, kacakah kang doet o.
9 O Lord, save the king, and hear us on the day that we will call upon you.
Aw Angraeng, pahlong ah! Kang kawk o naah siangpahrang mah pathim nasoe.
