Psalms 109
1 To the chief Musician. Of David. A Psalm. O God of my praise, be not silent:
Kathutkung: Devit Oe ka pholen e ka Cathut, duem awm hanh.
2 For the mouth of the wicked [man] and the mouth of deceit are opened against me: they have spoken against me with a lying tongue,
Bangkongtetpawiteh, tamikathoutnaw hoi tami kadumyennaw ni, a pahni na ang sin awh teh, lai na thoe sin awh.
3 And with words of hatred have they encompassed me; and they fight against me without a cause.
Hmuhmanae lawk hoi na kalup awh teh, a khuekhaw awm laipalah na tuk awh.
4 For my love they are mine adversaries; but I [give myself unto] prayer.
Ka lungpataw e naw teh na katarankung lah a coung awh. Hatei, ratoum laihoi ka o.
5 And they have rewarded me evil for good, and hatred for my love.
Ahnimouh ni hawinae hah hawihoehnae hoi na patho awh teh, ka pahrennae hah hmuhmanae hoi na patho awh.
6 Set a wicked [man] over him, and let [the] adversary stand at his right hand;
Ahnimae lathueng vah tamikathoutnaw tat nateh, aranglah vah tarannaw awm naseh.
7 When he shall be judged, let him go out guilty, and let his prayer become sin;
Lawkceng navah sung naseh, a ratoumnae teh yonnae lah coung pouh naseh.
8 Let his days be few, let another take his office;
A hringnae hnin duem naseh, a thaw teh ayâ alouk ni patawm naseh.
9 Let his sons be fatherless, and his wife a widow;
A canaw teh nara lah awm awh naseh, a yu teh lahmai naseh.
10 Let his sons be vagabonds and beg, and let them seek [their bread] far from their desolate places;
A canaw teh kâva awh naseh, ka rawk tangcoung e amamae hmuen koehoi rawca tawng awh naseh.
11 Let the usurer cast the net over all that he hath, and let strangers despoil his labour;
Tangka kacawisaknaw ni a canaw teh laiba dawk lat pouh naseh, a tawk teh a tawn tangcoung e hai apimouh ti panue hoeh e ni koung lat pouh naseh.
12 Let there be none to extend kindness unto him, neither let there be any to favour his fatherless children;
A lathueng vah apinihai lungmanae kamnuek sak hanh naseh. A ca naranaw hai apinihai pahren hanh naseh.
13 Let his posterity be cut off; in the generation following let their name be blotted out:
A ca catounnaw hai dout naseh. A catoun awm laipalah a min kahmat naseh.
14 Let the iniquity of his fathers be remembered with Jehovah, and let not the sin of his mother be blotted out;
A na mintoenaw e yonnae teh, BAWIPA hmalah pou pâkuem naseh. A manu yonnae raphoe pouh hanh naseh.
15 Let them be before Jehovah continually, that he may cut off the memory of them from the earth:
Hotnaw teh BAWIPA hmalah pou kamnuek naseh. Het talai van vah, ahnimouh pahnimhoehnae awm hanh naseh.
16 Because he remembered not to shew kindness, but persecuted the afflicted and needy man, and the broken in heart, to slay him.
Bangkongtetpawiteh, lungmanae kamnue sak hanelah, panuek awh hoeh. A lung ka tangpawk e patenghai a thei thai awh nahanelah, a reikathai hoi mathoenaw hah a pacekpahlek awh.
17 And he loved cursing; so let it come unto him. And he delighted not in blessing; and let it be far from him.
Thoe a bo awh e hah amamouh lathueng bawt naseh. Banglahai a noutna awh hoeh e yawhawi ni ahla poungnae koe cettakhai naseh.
18 And he clothed himself with cursing like his vestment; so let it come into his bowels like water, and like oil into his bones;
Thoebonae hah angki lah a kho e patetlah, a von dawk tui patetlah kâen naseh. A hru thung satui patetlah kâen naseh.
19 Let it be unto him as a garment with which he covereth himself, and for a girdle wherewith he is constantly girded.
A kâkhu e hah a khohna patetlah coung naseh, taisawm patetlah a keng dawk pou kâyeng naseh.
20 Let this be the reward of mine adversaries from Jehovah, and of them that speak evil against my soul.
Hothateh, ka tarannaw koe BAWIPA ni moipathungnae lah awm naseh. Na pathoe awh dawkvah, a pang awh e lah awm naseh.
21 But do thou for me, Jehovah, Lord, for thy name's sake; because thy loving-kindness is good, deliver me:
Hateiteh Oe Bawipa Jehovah, kai hateh na min kecu dawk hawinae hoi na awmkhai haw. Na lungmanae dawkvah, na rungngang haw.
22 For I am afflicted and needy, and my heart is wounded within me.
Tami ka roedeng hoi tami ka vout e lah doeh ka o. Ka thung vah ka lungthin teh hmâ a ca.
23 I am gone like a shadow when it lengtheneth; I am tossed about like the locust;
Kanîka patetlah ka kahma teh, awsi patetlah ka kâhuet.
24 My knees are failing through fasting, and my flesh hath lost its fatness;
Ka khokpakhu teh rawcahai kecu dawk cak hoeh, ka takthai teh a kamsoe.
25 And I am become a reproach unto them; [when] they look upon me they shake their heads.
Ahnimouh ni na pathoe hanelah ka o teh, na hmu awh toteh lû na saling sin awh.
26 Help me, Jehovah my God; save me according to thy loving-kindness:
Oe BAWIPA ka Cathut, na kabawm haw. Na lungmanae patetlah na rungngang haw.
27 That they may know that this is thy hand; that thou, Jehovah, hast done it.
BAWIPA, hethateh na kut hoi sak e doeh tie a panue thai awh nahanlah.
28 Let them curse, but bless thou; when they rise up, let them be ashamed, and let thy servant rejoice.
Ahnimouh ni thoe na bo eiteh, nang ni yawhawi na poe haw. Ahnimouh a thaw awh navah kayak awh naseh. Hatei, na san teh konawm naseh.
29 Let mine adversaries be clothed with confusion, and let them cover themselves with their shame as with a mantle.
Na katukkungnaw teh kayanae ni ramuk awh naseh. Min mathoenae hni ni koung ramuk naseh.
30 I will greatly celebrate Jehovah with my mouth; yea, I will praise him among the multitude.
Ka pahni hoi BAWIPA teh puenghoi ka pholen han. Bokheiyah, maya hmalah ama teh ka pholen han.
31 For he standeth at the right hand of the needy, to save him from those that judge his soul.
Bangkongtetpawiteh, yon kapennaw kut dawk hoi rungngang hanelah, ka roedengnaw e aranglah a kangdue han.
