Psalms 27
1 [A Psalm] of David. Jehovah is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? Jehovah is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?
Bawipa taw ka maihchoei ingkaw ka hulnaak na awm hy - u nu kak kqih bai kaw? Bawipa taw ka hqingnaak vawngcak na awm hy - u nu kak kqih re bai kaw?
2 When evil-doers, mine adversaries and mine enemies, came upon me to eat up my flesh, they stumbled and fell.
Ka sa daih aham thlak chekhqi ing ni pan unawh ka qaalkhqi ingkaw ka thunkhakhqi ing amim tu awh ce bah kawm usaw tlu kawm uh.
3 If a host encamp against me, my heart shall not fear; if war rise against me, in this will I be confident.
Qalkap ing nik chung khoep seiawm, kak kawlung am thyn qoe tikaw; tangboek ing ni boeng qoe seiawm kak kawlung yp khak kaw.
4 One [thing] have I asked of Jehovah, that will I seek after: that I may dwell in the house of Jehovah all the days of my life, to behold the beauty of Jehovah, and to inquire [of him] in his temple.
Bawipa venawh ik-oeih pynoet doeng thoeh nyng, ka thoeh taw veni; ka hqing khui pyt Bawipa im awh awm aham ingkaw Bawipa a myi daw soeih ce toek doena a bawkim khuiawh amah sui ve doeng ni.
5 For in the day of evil he will hide me in his pavilion; in the secret of his tent will he keep me concealed: he will set me high upon a rock.
Ikawtih kyinaak ka um awh ce a awmnaak hun awh kai ce ngaihding cana ni awm sak kaw; a hizan im awmnaak khuiawh ni thuh kawmsaw lungnu awh ce ak sang na nim hawih kaw.
6 And now shall my head be lifted up above mine enemies round about me; and I will offer in his tent sacrifices of shouts of joy: I will sing, yea, I will sing psalms unto Jehovah.
Cawhtaw kai anik chung khoep ka qaalkhqik khanawh ka luu ve zoeksang kaw; a hizan im awh zeel doena khy nawh lucik nawn nyng saw; Bawipa kyihcah ing laa sa hawh kawng nyng.
7 Hear, Jehovah; with my voice do I call; be gracious unto me, and answer me.
Aw Bawipa, ka nik khy awh ce kak awi ngai law lah; nim qeen nawhtaw nim hlat lah.
8 My heart said for thee, Seek ye my face. Thy face, O Jehovah, will I seek.
Kak kawlung ing “A haai sui lah!” ni tina hy. Bawipa nang haai ni ka sui hly.
9 Hide not thy face from me; put not thy servant away in anger: thou hast been my help; cast me not off, neither forsake me, O God of my salvation.
Na haai ce koeh thuh valh nawh, na tyihzawih ve koeh mang taak; nang taw kai anik bawmkung ni. Aw Khawsa ka hulkung, koeh ni qoeng nawhtaw koeh ni cen taak.
10 For had my father and my mother forsaken me, then had Jehovah taken me up.
Ka pa ingkaw ka nu ing ni cehta seiawm, Bawipa ing ni do ngai kaw.
11 Teach me thy way, Jehovah, and lead me in an even path, because of mine enemies.
Aw Bawipa, na lam ce ni cawng sak nawh; kai anik thekhanaakkhqi awh na lap dyng awh ni sawi lah.
12 Deliver me not over to the will of mine adversaries; for false witnesses are risen up against me, and such as breathe out violence.
Ka qaalkhqi ngaihnaak awh kai ce koeh ni pe, amak thym dyihthingkhqi ing ni thawh sih unawh, amak leek ben awi ce amik kqawn a dawngawh.
13 Unless I had believed to see the goodness of Jehovah in the land of the living...!
Ka hqingnaak qam awh ve Bawipa a leeknaak hu ngai kawng tinawh yp qu na mang kang nyng.
14 Wait for Jehovah; be strong and let thy heart take courage: yea, wait for Jehovah.
Bawipa mah qeh lah; kawlung cak doena nak tha awm sak nawh, Bawipa mah qeh lah.
