Psalms 61

1 To the chief Musician. On a stringed instrument. [A Psalm] of David. Hear, O God, my cry; attend unto my prayer.

Katoeng kruek zaehoikung hanah. Neginah ah sak koi David ih Saam laa. Aw Sithaw, ka qahhaih lok hae tahngai ah loe, lawk ka thuihaih hae tahngai ah.

2 From the end of the earth will I call unto thee, when my heart is overwhelmed: thou wilt lead me on to a rock which is too high for me.

Palungthin thazok naah, long boenghaih hoiah nang to kang kawk; kai pongah kasang kue lungsong khaeah na caeh haih ah.

3 For thou hast been a refuge for me, a strong tower from before the enemy.

Nang loe ka buephaih ah na oh moe, ka misanawk hmaa ah sipae kacak ah na oh.

4 I will sojourn in thy tent for ever; I will take refuge in the covert of thy wings. (Selah)

Nang ih kahni im ah dungzan khoek to ka oh han; na pakhraeh tahlip ah ka buep han. (Selah)

5 For thou, O God, hast heard my vows; thou hast given [me] the inheritance of those that fear thy name.

Aw Sithaw, ka sak ih lokkamhaih nang thaih pae boeh; na hmin zii kaminawk ih qawk to nang paek boeh.

6 Thou wilt add days to the days of the king: his years shall be as many generations.

Siangpahrang to hinglung sawksak ah loe, boeng thai ai ah dungzan khoek to caksak poe ah.

7 He shall abide before God for ever: bestow loving-kindness and truth, that they may preserve him.

Anih loe Sithaw hmaa ah dungzan khoek to om nasoe loe, tahmenhaih hoi loktang lok mah, anih to ohhaih poe nasoe.

8 So will I sing forth thy name for ever, performing my vows from day to day.

To naah na hmin pakoehhaih laa to ka sak poe moe, lok ka maihaih to ni thokkruek ka sak han.
