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.

Ngaihkyi kawbing na na awm huiawh Bawipa ing nim hlat seitaw; Jacob a Khawsa ang ming ing ni hlip nik chung seh nyng.

2 May he send you help from the sanctuary and watch over you from Zion.

Ahun caih awhkawng na ham bawmnaak tyi law seitaw Zion awhkawng dylnaak ce ni pe seh nyng.

3 May he be mindful of all your sacrifices, and may your burnt-offerings be fat.

Lucik na sainaak boeih ce sim loet seitaw na hyihphumnaak ce zeel doena do seh nyng.

4 May he grant to you according to your heart, and confirm all your counsels.

Nak kawlung ngaihnaak ce ni pe seitaw nang cainaakkhqi boeih ce coeng sak seh nyng.

5 We will rejoice in your salvation, and in the name of our God, we will be magnified.

Noengnaak na huh awh zeel doena khy kawng unyng saw ni Khawsa ang ming ing hizan ce hak zoek kawng unyng. Bawipa ing na thoehnaak boeih ce ni pe seh nyng.

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.

Bawipa ing ak thlang tyh ce hul hy ti sim hawh nyng; ak tang ben awhkaw hulnaak tha ing ak khan caih nakawng anih ce hlat hy.

7 Some trust in chariots, and some in horses, but we will call upon the name of the Lord our God.

Thlang pynoet ing meqang phleng ypna unawh pynoet ing meqangkhqi ypna uhy, cehlai ningnih ingtaw Bawipa ni khawsa ang ming ce ni ypna uhy.

8 They have been bound, and they have fallen. But we have risen up, and we have been set upright.

Cekkhqi ing amim khuk tawk et nawh tlu hlai uhy, ningnih taw ni hang tho unawh ak cak na ning dyi uhy.

9 O Lord, save the king, and hear us on the day that we will call upon you.

Aw Bawipa, sangpahqang ve hul lah! Kaimih ing kamik khy awh nim hlat khqi lah!
