< Psalms 63 >
1 A psalm of David, when he was in the Judean desert. God, you are my God, I eagerly look for you. I am thirsty for you; all that I am longs for you in this dry, weary, waterless land.
Judah khosoek ah a om vaengkah David tingtoenglung Pathen namah tah ka Pathen ni. Namah ni kan toem coeng. Namah te ka hinglu loh halthi tih, ka pumsa loh namah te a hue, Diklai ah he rhamrhae neh buhmueh rhathih, tui mueh la om.
2 I see you in the Temple; I watch your power and glory.
Tedae na sarhi neh na thangpomnah hmuh ham hmuencim ah nang kan dan.
3 Your trustworthy love is better than life itself; I will praise you.
Na sitlohnah he hingnah lakah then tih ka hmuilai he nang taengah domyok ti uh saeh.
4 I will thank you as long as I live; I lift up my hands as I celebrate your wonderful character.
Te dongah ka hingnah neh nang kan uem vetih, na ming neh ka kut ka thueng ni.
5 You satisfy me more than the richest food; I will praise you with joyful songs.
A th a neh maehhloi bangla ka hinglu hah vetih ka ka loh omngaih laa kah hmuilai neh a thangthen ni.
6 I think of you all night long as I lie on my bed meditating about you.
Ka rhaenghmuen lamkah loh nang kan poek vaengah nang te hlaempang pakhat puet kan mangtuk.
7 For you are the one who helps me; I sing happily from under your wings.
Kai ham bomnah la na om dongah na phae hlip ah ka tamhoe.
8 I hold on to you; your strong arms lift me up.
Nang dongah ka hinglu pangnal tih kai he na bantang kut loh n'duel.
9 Those who are trying to destroy me will go down into the grave.
Amih loh ka hinglu pocinah ham a mae uh dae diklai hmui la kun uh bitni.
10 They will be killed by the sword; they will become food for jackals.
cunghang kut ah pat uh vetih maetang buham la om uh ni.
11 But the king will be happy for what God has done. All who follow God will praise him, but those who tell lies will be silenced.
Tedae, manghai tah Pathen rhang neh a kohoe ni. Amah dongah ol aka caeng boeih te a thangthen vaengah laithae aka thui kah a ka te a biing pah ni.
