Psalms 101

1 A psalm of David. I will sing of your faithful love and good judgment. I will sing praises to you, Lord.

[David kah Tingtoenglung] Na sitlohnah neh tiktamnah te ka hlai vetih BOEIPA nang te kan tingtoeng ni.

2 I will make sure my life is blameless. When will you come and help me? My life will be one of integrity even in private.

Longpuei cuemthuek la ka cangbam van eh. Me vaengah nim kai taengla na lo ve? Ka imkhui lung ah ka thinko kah thincaknah nen ni ka pongpa eh.

3 I will not look at anything evil. I hate doing wrong—I won't have anything to do with it.

Aka muen kah hno te ka mikhmuh ah ka khueh mahpawh. Vilvak vilvak aka saii khaw ka thiinah dongah kai taengla ha pangnael boel saeh.

4 I won't think bad thoughts—I won't even consider anything evil.

Thinko voeldak nang kai taeng lamkah khoe uh tih boethae he ka ming moenih.

5 I will silence anyone who secretly slanders their neighbor. I won't tolerate anyone who is proud and arrogant.

Yinhnuk ah a hui a thet, a thet tih a mikdai aka oek te khaw ka koeih pah ni. Te vaengah anih kah a thinko a mungkung khaw ka naep puei mahpawh.

6 I look for faithful people to live with me; only those who are trustworthy will serve me.

Khohmuen loh a tangnah rhoek te kamah taengah khosak sak ham ka mik ah om. Cuemthuek longpuei ah aka pongpa loh kai bi bi saeh.

7 No one who is dishonest will live in my house; no liars will be allowed in my presence.

Vuelvaeknah aka saii loh ka imkhui lung ah om boel saeh. Laithae aka thui khaw ka mikhmuh ah pai mahpawh.

8 I work every day to silence the wicked in the land, to rid the city of the Lord of all who do evil.

Boethae kah a saii boeih te BOEIPA khopuei khui lamkah thup ham atah khohmuen kah halang rhoek boeih te mincang ah bat ka biit ni.
