< Psalms 52 >
1 To the chief Musician: an instruction. Of David; when Doeg the Edomite came and told Saul, and said unto him, David came to the house of Ahimelech. Why boastest thou thyself in evil, thou mighty man? The loving-kindness of God [abideth] continually.
Nang tha ak awm soeih, kawtih ik-oeih amak leek awh nang oek qu hy voei? Khawsa mik huh awh chah qai na ak awm nang, kawtih myngawi nang oek qu paqap?
2 Thy tongue deviseth mischievous things, like a sharp razor, practising deceit.
Nam lai ing seetnaak doeng cai sih nawh; zawzi ak hqat thak bat amyihna awm hy, qaai kqawnnaak doeng ce sai hyk ti.
3 Thou hast loved evil rather than good, lying rather than to speak righteousness. (Selah)
Ik-oeih leek anglakawh ik-oeh che ce lungna lat tiksaw, awitak kqawn anglakawh amak thym awih kqawn ce ngaih bet hyk ti.
4 Thou hast loved all devouring words, O deceitful tongue!
Aw qaai kqawnnaak ing ak be lai! Awih tlo kqawn ce lungna hyk ti.
5 God shall likewise destroy thee for ever; he shall take thee away, and pluck thee out of [thy] tent, and root thee out of the land of the living. (Selah)
Khawsa ing kumqui plamnaak na ni nuk thla kaw; nang ce ni qawt kawmsaw na khawnghi im awhkawng nik dawk plawk kaw; na awmnaak qam awhkawng nak kqa mah na ni phu kaw.
6 The righteous also shall see, and fear, and shall laugh at him, [saying, ]
Thlakdyngkhqi ing hu kawm usaw kqih kawm uh; a mingmih ing qaih na kawm usaw, vemyihna,
7 Behold the man that made not God his strength, but put confidence in the abundance of his riches, [and] strengthened himself in his avarice.
Khawsa ce vawngcak na taak kaana amah a boeinaak ypna lat nawh thlang hqenaak ben awh tha ak awm thyk thlang vawh awm hy ve!” tina kawm uh.
8 But as for me, I am like a green olive-tree in the house of God: I will confide in the loving-kindness of God for ever and ever.
Cehlai, kai taw Khawsa ip khuiawh ak qah olive thing amyihna awm nyng; amak dyt thai Khawsa lungnaak ce ni kumqui ingkaw kumqui dyna ka ypnaak.
9 I will praise thee for ever, because thou hast done [it]; and I will wait on thy name, before thy godly ones, for it is good.
Na ik-oeih sai awh kumqui dyna ni zoeksang kawng nyng saw; namah ang ming awh ngaih-unaak ce ta kawng nyng, kawtih namah ang ming taw leek hy. Nak thlang ciimkhqi haiawh nang ce nim kyih kawng nyng.
