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?
Kathutkung: Devit BAWIPA nang teh angnae hoi kaie rungngangnae doeh. Apihai ka taket ma hoeh. BAWIPA nang teh na kanguekung ka rapan la doeh na o ka lungpuen mahoeh.
2 When evil-doers, mine adversaries and mine enemies, came upon me to eat up my flesh, they stumbled and fell.
Tami kahawihoehnaw ni na tuk teh thei hanlah na nout navah ouk a rawp awh teh ouk a tâlaw awh.
3 If a host encamp against me, my heart shall not fear; if war rise against me, in this will I be confident.
Ransahu kalenpoung ni na kalup nakunghai ka lungpuen mahoeh. Taran ni na ka tuk nahai Cathut nang teh na kângue mingming han.
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 koe hno hei han ka ngai e hno buet touh doeh kaawm. Hothateh ka hring yunglam BAWIPA imthung o hane hoi yah, kângai runae lahoi lam na hrawi tie hah doeh.
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.
Rucatnae atueng dawkvah hnâroumcalah a rathei rahim na o sak. A bawkim thung vah hnâroumcalah na ta, ka rasang e lungsong van na thueng.
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.
Hatdawkvah ka tengpam e kaawm e ka taran teh katâ han lunghawinae pawlawk hoi a bawkim thungvah thuengnae teh ka poe han.
7 Hear, Jehovah; with my voice do I call; be gracious unto me, and answer me.
BAWIPA pahren lahoi, kai ni na kaw navah ka lawk na thai pouh nateh kahei e na thai pouh haw.
8 My heart said for thee, Seek ye my face. Thy face, O Jehovah, will I seek.
Kai koe, Tho haw na ka tet e BAWIPA koe ka tho han.
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.
Kai koe na minhmai hrawk hanh. Kai koe na lungphuen hanh, na san heh na pâlei hanh lah a. Oe Cathut kaie rungngangnae nang teh kabawmkung doeh. Na cettakhai hanh. Pak na tha hanh lah a.
10 For had my father and my mother forsaken me, then had Jehovah taken me up.
Anu hoi apa ni na ka pahnawt nakunghai BAWIPA nang ni pou na khenyawn lah a.
11 Teach me thy way, Jehovah, and lead me in an even path, because of mine enemies.
Oe, BAWIPA taran ka tawn dawkvah roumnae lam koe lahoi na cetkhai lah a. Na ngainae na pâtu haw.
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.
Laithoe hoi pou na ka yue e taran koe na tat hanh.
13 Unless I had believed to see the goodness of Jehovah in the land of the living...!
A taminaw lathueng BAWIPA hawinae ka hmu roeroe han telah ka yuem.
14 Wait for Jehovah; be strong and let thy heart take courage: yea, wait for Jehovah.
BAWIPA teh kângue awh, yuemnae tawn awh, na lungpout awh hanh. BAWIPA teh kângue awh.
