Psalms 17
1 The prayer of David. Hear, O Lord, my justice: attend to my supplication. Give ear unto my prayer, which proceedeth not from deceitful lips.
David kah Thangthuinah Duengnah he han ya lah BOEIPA! ka tamlung he hnatung lamtah ka ka ah hlangthai palat om kolla ka thangthuinah he na hna han kaeng lah.
2 Let my judgment come forth from thy countenance: let thy eyes behold the things that are equitable.
Ka laitloeknah he namah taeng lamkah halo saeh lamtah na mik loh vanatnah te hmuh van saeh.
3 Thou hast proved my heart, and visited it by night, thou hast tried me by fire: and iniquity hath not been found in me.
Ka lungbuei he noem lah, khoyin ah nan cawh tih kai nan picai dae na hmu moenih. Ka ka he a tholh pawt ham ka mangtaeng coeng.
4 That my mouth may not speak the works of men: for the sake of the words of thy lips, I have kept hard ways.
Hlang kah thaphu dongah na hmuilai lamkah olka nen ni kai loh dingca kah a caehlong te ka rhael.
5 Perfect thou my goings in thy paths: that my footsteps be not moved.
Na namtlak kah ka khokan khaw ka kho a paloe pawt ham n'duel dae.
6 I have cried to thee, for thou, O God, hast heard me: O incline thy ear unto me, and hear my words.
Kai nan doo dongah kamah loh nang ni kang khue. Pathen aw kai taengla na hna han duen lamtah ka olthui he hnatun lah.
7 Shew forth thy wonderful mercies; thou who savest them that trust in thee.
Caemrhal lamkah aka ying rhoek te na bantang kut neh aka khang, na sitlohnah tah khobaerhambae la tueng.
8 From them that resist thy right hand keep me, as the apple of thy eye. Protect me under the shadow of thy wings.
Na mikhmuh ah thenhnaih nu bangla na phae hlip ah kai n'ying sak lamtah,
9 From the face of the wicked who have afflicted me. My enemies have surrounded my soul:
kai aka rhoelrhak sak halang rhoek neh, kai taengah ka hinglu aka vael ka thunkha rhoek hmai lamkah kai he n'dawndah lah.
10 They have shut up their fat: their mouth hath spoken proudly.
Amih te a komoelh uh, a kam a khuep uh tih hoemdamnah a thui uh.
11 They have cast me forth and now they have surrounded me: they have set their eyes bowing down to the earth.
Tahae ah kaimih kah khokan te a hil uh tih amih mik loh kaimih he m'vael uh coeng. Kaimih he Diklai la aka tulh ham tawn uh.
12 They have taken me, as a lion prepared for the prey; and as a young lion dwelling in secret places.
A mueisa mah rhamsa ngaeh ham aka moo sathueng neh sathuengca bangla a huephael ah kho a sak.
13 Arise, O Lord, disappoint him and supplant him; deliver my soul from the wicked one: thy sword
Aw BOEIPA thoo lah, anih hmai ah khoep mah lamtah bung sak. Na cunghang neh halang kut lamkah ka hinglu he han hlah lah.
14 From the enemies of thy hand. O Lord, divide them from the few of the earth in their life: their belly is filled from thy hidden stores. They are full of children: and they have left to their little ones the rest of their substance.
BOEIPA namah kut dongkah hlang rhoek lamloh, khosaknah lamkah hlang rhoek lamloh, na hingnah dongah amih kah hamsum khaw na khoem pah tih a bung na hah sak. Ca rhoek khaw hah uh tih a coih te a camoe patoeng ham a paih uh.
15 But as for me, I will appear before thy sight in justice: I shall be satisfied when thy glory shall appear.
Kai ngawn tah, duengnah dongah na maelhmai ka hmuh vetih, namah kah muei la ka haenghang vaengah, ngaikhuek la ka om ni.
