< Psalms 16 >

1 Michtam of David. Preserve me, O God: for I trust in thee.
David kah Laa Aw Boeipa Pathen namah dongah ka ying tih kai n'dawndah lah.
2 Thou [my soul] hast said to Jehovah, Thou art the Lord: my goodness [extendeth] not to thee; —
Ka Boeipa Yahovah namah taengah, “Nang phoeiah tah ka hnothen a om moenih,” ka ti.
3 To the saints that are on the earth, and to the excellent [thou hast said], In them is all my delight.
Diklai ah aka cim tih, aka khuet boeih taengah ka naep.
4 Their sorrows shall be multiplied that hasten after another: their drink-offerings of blood will I not offer, and I will not take up their names into my lips.
A tloe aka oei rhoek tah a nganboh la pung. Amih thii te tuisi ka bueih pawt vetih ka hmuilai neh amih ming te ka khuen mahpawh.
5 Jehovah is the portion of mine inheritance and of my cup: thou maintainest my lot.
BOEIPA tah kai kah buham khoyo neh ka boengloeng la om. Namah loh ka hmulung khaw na duel.
6 The lines are fallen unto me in pleasant places; yea, I have a goodly heritage.
Rhilong khaw kai ham tah, hmuennaep ah cet tih, kai ham rho then ngawn coeng.
7 I will bless Jehovah, who giveth me counsel; even in the nights my reins instruct me.
Kai aka uen aka to BOEIPA te a yoethen saeh. Khoyin ah khaw ka kuel loh kamah n'toel.
8 I have set Jehovah continually before me; because [he is] at my right hand, I shall not be moved.
BOEIPA loh kai kah bantang ben ah om tih, kamah hmai la ka mop taitu dongah ka tuen mahpawh.
9 Therefore my heart rejoiceth, and my glory exulteth; my flesh moreover shall dwell in hope.
Te dongah ka lungbuei a kohoe tih ka kah thangpomnah loh a omngaih vaengah, ka pumsa khaw ngaikhuek la duem ni.
10 For thou wilt not leave my soul to Sheol, neither wilt thou allow thy Holy One to see corruption. (Sheol h7585)
Ka hinglu he Saelkhui la na hnoo pawt vetih, namah kah hlangcim te hlan na hmuh sak mahpawh. (Sheol h7585)
11 Thou wilt make known to me the path of life: thy countenance is fulness of joy; at thy right hand are pleasures for evermore.
Hingnah caehlong te kai nan tueng tih, na hmai ah kohoenah kodam la om. Na bantang kut ah a yoeyah la ka ngailaem.
