Psalms 20

1 For the music director. A psalm of David. May the Lord answer you when you are in trouble; may the name of the God of Jacob protect you.

Kathutkung: Devit Runae hnin dawk BAWIPA ni na pato naseh. Jakop Cathut min lahoi na roum sak naseh.

2 May the Lord send you help from the sanctuary, and may he support you from Zion.

Hmuen kathoung koehoi kabawpnae teh tâcawt sak naseh. Zion hoi tha awm sak naseh.

3 May the Lord remember all your offerings, and accept all your burnt sacrifices. (Selah)

Na thuengnae pueng na thai pouh naseh. Hmaisawi thuengnae hai dâw naseh.

4 May the Lord give you whatever you really want; may he make all your plans successful.

Na ngainae patetlah na poe naseh, na pouknae patetlah kuep sak naseh.

5 May we shout for joy over your victory, and set up banners in the name of our God. May the Lord answer all your requests.

Na rungngangnae dawk ka konawm awh vaiteh, Cathut min lahoi lukkarei a yap awh han. BAWIPA ni na hei e pueng kuep sak lawiseh.

6 Now I know that the Lord saves the one he has anointed. He will answer him from his holy heaven, and save his anointed by his powerful right hand.

BAWIPA ni satui awi e a rungngang tie atuvah panue awh toe. Kathounge kalvan hoi a rungngangnae aranglae kut, athakaawme hoi na pato han.

7 Some trust in chariots and some in war horses, but we trust in who the Lord our God is.

Atangawn ni leng a kâuep awh teh, atangawn ni marang a kâuep awh. Hatei, kaimouh teh, BAWIPA Cathut min hah pou ka kâuep awh han.

8 They collapse and fall down, but we rise and stand up.

Ahnimouh teh tabut hoi a rawp awh. Hatei, kaimouh teh ka thaw awh teh, kalancalah ka kangdue awh.

9 May the Lord save the king! Please answer us when we call for help!

BAWIPA rungngang haw. Ka kaw toteh siangpahrang ni na pato naseh.
