Psalms 101

1 A psalm for David himself. Mercy and judgment I will sing to thee, O Lord: I will sing,

Kasakkung: Devit Lungmanae hoi kângingnae la ka sak han. BAWIPA nang koe pholennae la ka sak han.

2 And I will understand in the unspotted way, when thou shalt come to me. I walked in the innocence of my heart, in the midst of my house.

Ka kuep e lamthung dawk lungang lahoi ka hring han. Oe, nâtuek ne kai koe na tho han vai. Ka imthungkhu dawk ka thoung e lungthin hoi ka o han.

3 I did not set before my eyes any unjust thing: I hated the workers of iniquities.

Ka mithmu vah hawihoehnae banghai ka tat mahoeh. Katâlawnaw ni tawksaknae hah ka hmuhma teh, kai dawk kâbet mahoeh.

4 The perverse heart did not cleave to me: and the malignant, that turned aside from me, I would not know.

Lungthin longkawinae ni na ceitakhai vaiteh, hawihoehnae hah ka panuek mahoeh.

5 The man that in private detracted his neighbour, him did I persecute. With him that had a proud eye, and an unsatiable heart, I would not eat.

Arulahoi a imri ka pathoe e pueng ka raphoe vaiteh, a minhmai kâoup niteh, a lungpouk ka rasang e naw hah ka panguep mahoeh.

6 My eyes were upon the faithful of the earth, to sit with me: the man that walked in the perfect way, he served me.

Yuemkamcu e khocanaw teh kai koe ao awh nahanelah, ka khetyawt han. Ka kuep e lamthung ka dawn e ni kaie thaw a tawk awh han.

7 He that worketh pride shall not dwell in the midst of my house: he that speaketh unjust things did not prosper before my eyes.

Tami ka dumyen e teh, ka im dawk awm mahoeh. Laithoe kadeinaw teh, ka hmalah pou awm awh mahoeh.

8 In the morning I put to death all the wicked of the land: that I might cut off all the workers of iniquity from the city of the Lord.

Hawihoehnae ka sak e naw hah BAWIPA e khopui dawk hoi raphoe nahanlah, tamikathoutnaw pueng teh palang a raphoe han toe.
