Psalms 58
1 To the chief Musician. 'Destroy not.' Of David. Michtam. Is righteousness indeed silent? Do ye speak it? Do ye judge with equity, ye sons of men?
Aka mawt ham David kah, “Phae boeh “laa Duengnah he olmueh na ti uh tih, hlang ca rhoek taengah vanatnah neh lai na tloek uh tang a?
2 Yea, in heart ye work wickedness; ye weigh out the violence of your hands in the earth.
Tedae, lungbuei neh dumlai na saii. Diklai ah kuthlahnah te na kut dongah na thuek.
3 The wicked go astray from the womb; they err as soon as they are born, speaking lies.
Halang rhoek tah bung khui lamloh kholong uh coeng tih, laithae aka thui rhoek khaw a bungko khui lamloh kho a hmang uh.
4 Their poison is like the poison of a serpent: [they are] like the deaf adder which stoppeth her ear;
Amih kah kosi te rhul sue phek la om tih minta hnapang bangla a hna a buem.
5 Which doth not hearken to the voice of enchanters, of one charming ever so wisely.
Te vaengah aka hloih thai rhoek loh a hloih vaengkah a sisuk ol te ya pawh.
6 O God, break their teeth in their mouth; break out the great teeth of the young lions, O Jehovah.
Pathen aw, amih ka dongkah a no te koengloeng pah. BOEIPA aw sathueng kah kamkenno te thuk pah.
7 Let them melt away as waters that flow off; when he aimeth his arrows, let them be as blunted:
Amih te tui aka long bangla yip kak uh saeh. Thaltang, thaltang a phuk te haih pah tangloeng saeh.
8 Let them be as a snail that melteth as it passeth away; [like] the untimely birth of a woman, let them not see the sun.
Hnap neh aka thoeih lainat neh huta aka rhumpu bangla khomik hmu uh boel saeh.
9 Before your pots feel the thorns, green or burning, — they shall be whirled away.
Na umam loh a yakming uh hlan ah cangpalam loh a yawn bangla hling khaw, thinghing khaw thingkoh khaw yawn saeh.
10 The righteous shall rejoice when he seeth the vengeance; he shall wash his footsteps in the blood of the wicked:
Phulohnah a hmuh vaengah hlang dueng loh a kohoe vetih halang kah thii neh a kho a silh ni.
11 And men shall say, Verily there is fruit for the righteous; verily there is a God that judgeth in the earth.
Te vaengah pilnam loh, “Aka dueng ham thapang om pai. Diklai ah Pathen loh lai a tloek pai,” a ti ni.
