< Psalms 23 >
1 A Psalm of David. The Lord directs me, and nothing will be lacking to me.
Bawipa taw ka tuudoenkung na a awm dawngawh, am syt voel kawng nyng.
2 He has settled me here, in a place of pasture. He has led me out to the water of refreshment.
Qam a sainaak hun awh ni ih sak nawh, tui ang bymnaak hun na ni hqui hy.
3 He has converted my soul. He has led me away on the paths of justice, for the sake of his name.
Ka hqingnaak ve ni tlaih pe nawh ang ming ak caming dyngnaak lam benna ce ni sawi hy.
4 For, even if I should walk in the midst of the shadow of death, I will fear no evils. For you are with me. Your rod and your staff, they have given me consolation.
Thihnaak lawk-kqawng hqaw nyng seiawm, ap kqih tikawng; kawtih na thingboeng ingkaw na sawnghqawl ing kang ngaih ni qep sak hy.
5 You have prepared a table in my sight, opposite those who trouble me. You have anointed my head with oil, and my cup, which inebriates me, how brilliant it is!
Ka qaalkhqi haiawh kai aham caboei ni tloeng pe hyk ti, ka lu ve situi ing ni syp pe nawh; kak boet awh be ngen hy.
6 And your mercy will follow me all the days of my life, and so may I dwell in the house of the Lord for length of days.
Leeknaak ingkaw lungnaak ing ka hqing khui pyt awh ni hquut kawmsaw, Bawipa im awh kumqui dyna awm hawh kawng nyng.
