Psalms 116
1 I have loved, because the Lord will hear the voice of my prayer.
Ka huithuinah ol te BOEIPA loh a yaak coeng dongah ka lungnah.
2 Because he hath inclined his ear unto me: and in my days I will call upon him.
Kai taengla a hna a kaeng dongah ka hing tue khuiah ka khue ni.
3 The sorrows of death have encompassed me: and the perils of hell have found me. I met with trouble and sorrow: (Sheol h7585)
Dueknah rhuihet neh saelkhui longcaek loh kai n'caeng. Citcai loh kai m'hmuh tih kothae loh m'vuei. (Sheol h7585)
4 And I called upon the name of the Lord. O Lord, deliver my soul.
Te vaengah, “Aw BOEIPA ka hinglu he poenghal sak lah,” tila BOEIPA ming te ka khue.
5 The Lord is merciful and just, and our God sheweth mercy.
Lungvatnah BOEIPA tah dueng tih mamih kah Pathen loh a haidam.
6 The Lord is the keeper of little ones: I was little and he delivered me.
BOEIPA loh hlangyoe a ngaithuen. Ka tlayae vaengah kai n'khang.
7 Turn, O my soul, into thy rest: for the Lord hath been bountiful to thee.
BOEIPA loh nang ham a phai coeng dongah aw ka hinglu na ngolbuel la ha mael laeh.
8 For he hath delivered my soul from death: my eyes from tears, my feet from falling.
Ka hinglu he dueknah lamkah, ka mik he mikphi lamkah, ka kho khaw thuihkoek dong lamkah nan pumcum sak.
9 I will please the Lord in the land of the living.
Te dongah mulhing khohmuen kah BOEIPA mikhmuh ah ka pongpa van ni.
10 I have believed, therefore have I spoken; but I have been humbled exceedingly.
Kai loh, “Ka tholh tangkik,” ka ti vaengah pataeng ka tangnah.
11 I said in my excess: Every man is a liar.
Kai loh ka tamto vaengah, “Hlang boeih he laithae ni,” ka ti.
12 What shall I render to the Lord, for all the things he hath rendered unto me?
Kai ham a thennah boeih he BOEIPA taengah metlam ka thuung eh?
13 I will take the chalice of salvation; and I will call upon the name of the Lord.
Khangnah boengloeng te ka pom vetih BOEIPA ming te ka khue ni.
14 I will pay my vows to the Lord before all his people:
BOEIPA taengkah ka olcaeng te a pilnam boeih kah mikhmuh ah ka thuung pawn ni.
15 Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of his saints.
A hlangcim rhoek kah dueknah he BOEIPA mikhmuh ah vang.
16 O Lord, for I am thy servant: I am thy servant, and the son of thy handmaid. Thou hast broken my bonds:
Aw BOEIPA, kai he na sal pai ni. Na salnu kah a ca, na sal kai he, ka kuelrhui lamloh nan hlam.
17 I will sacrifice to thee the sacrifice of praise, and I will call upon the name of the Lord.
Nang taengah uemonah hmueih ka nawn vetih BOEIPA ming te ka khue ni.
18 I will pay my vows to the Lord in the sight of all his people:
BOEIPA taengkah ka olcaeng te a pilnam boeih kah mikhmuh ah,
19 In the courts of the house of the Lord, in the midst of thee, O Jerusalem.
BOEIPA im vongup neh Jerusalem nang khuiah ka thuung pawn ni. BOEIPA tah thangthen uh.
