< Psalms 60 >
1 To the chief Musician. On Shushan. Testimony. Michtam of David; to teach: when he strove with the Syrians of Mesopotamia, and the Syrians of Zobah, and Joab returned, and smote the Edomites in the valley of salt, twelve thousand. O God, thou hast cast us off, thou hast scattered us, thou hast been displeased: restore us again.
Aramnaharaim neh Aramzobah te a hnueih phoeiah Joab ha bal tih kolrhawk ah Edom thawng hlai nit a ngawn vaengkah a tukkil te aka mawt ham David kah Olphong Tuilipai laa Pathen aw, kaimih he nan hlahpham tih, na thintoek ah kaimih nan phaek. Kaimih he koep m'mael puei lah.
2 Thou hast made the earth to tremble, thou hast rent it: heal the breaches thereof; for it shaketh.
Diklai na hinghuen tih phak na boe. A tuen vaengkah a hma te hoeih sak lah.
3 Thou hast shewn thy people hard things; thou hast made us to drink the wine of bewilderment.
Na pilnam te mangkhak la na hmuh tih ngaengainah misurtui te kaimih nan tul.
4 Thou hast given a banner to them that fear thee, that it may be displayed because of the truth, (Selah)
Nang aka rhih ham tah, tiktam hmai la rhaelrham saeh tila rholik na thoh pah. (Selah)
5 That thy beloved ones may be delivered. Save with thy right hand, and answer me.
Na lungnah rhoek te na bantang neh khang lamtah pumcum uh van saeh. Te dongah kaimih he n'doo lamtah kamah khaw n'doo mai.
6 God hath spoken in his holiness: I will exult, I will divide Shechem, and mete out the valley of Succoth.
Pathen loh a hmuencim lamkah, “Ka sundaep vetih, Shekhem te ka boe phoeiah Sukkoth kol te ka suem ni.
7 Gilead is mine, and Manasseh is mine, and Ephraim is the strength of my head; Judah is my law-giver;
Gilead he kai kah tih, Manasseh khaw kamah kah. Ephraim khaw ka lu kah lunghim tih, Judah khaw ka taem.
8 Moab is my wash-pot; upon Edom will I cast my sandal; Philistia, shout aloud because of me.
Moab tah kai kah tuihluknah am ni. Edom soah ka khokhom ka voeih tih Philistia te ka yuhui thil,” a ti.
9 Who will bring me into the strong city? who will lead me unto Edom?
Vongup khopuei la ulong kai n'khuen eh? Edom la ulong kai m'mawt eh?
10 [Wilt] not thou, O God, who didst cast us off? and didst not go forth, O God, with our armies?
Pathen nang loh kaimih nan hlahpham pawt tih Pathen namah te kaimih kah caempuei rhoek taengla na pawk moenih a?
11 Give us help from trouble; for vain is man's deliverance.
Hlang kah loeihnah a poeyoek la a om dongah rhal taengah khaw kai he bomnah m'pae lah.
12 Through God we shall do valiantly; and he it is that will tread down our adversaries.
Pathen neh caem ka tloek rhoi vetih ka rhal ka suntlae ni.
