< Psalms 68 >
1 For the music director. A psalm of David. A song. Stand up, God, and scatter your enemies. Let those who hate him run away from him!
[Aka mawt ham David kah tingtoeng laa] Pathen he thoo vetih a thunkha rhoek taekyak uh mako. A lunguet rhoek khaw a mikhmuh lamkah rhaelrham uh mako.
2 Blow them away as if they were smoke; melt them like beeswax in a fire. Let the wicked die in God's presence.
Halang rhoek he Pathen hmai ah hmaikhu a yah bangla na yah vetih, hmai hmai ah khoirhat a paci bangla milh uh saeh.
3 But those who are right with God are happy, and they celebrate in God's presence, full of joy.
Tedae hlang dueng rhoek tah kohoenah neh Pathen hmai ah a sundaep neh a kohoe uh saeh lamtah ngaingaih uh saeh.
4 Sing praises to God! Sing praises to his wonderful reputation! Praise the rider of the clouds—his name is the Lord! Be happy in his presence!
Pathen te hlai lamtah a ming te tingtoeng uh lah. Vaan kolken dongah aka ngol BOEIPA ming te pomsang uh lamtah a hmai ah sundaep uh.
5 He is a father to the orphans, a protector of widows. This is who God is, who lives in his holy place.
Amah kah khuirhung hmuencim ah aka om Pathen tah cadah rhoek kah a napa neh nuhmai rhoek kah laitloekkung la om.
6 God gives those who are abandoned a family to live with. He sets prisoners free with celebration. But those who rebel live in a desert wasteland.
Pathen loh oingaih cangloeng te imlo neh kho a sak sak tih thongtla rhoek te lolmangcil neh a khuen. Tedae thinthah rhoek tah rhamrhae ah kho a sak uh.
7 God, when you led your people out, when you marched through the desert, (Selah)
Pathen aw na pilnam hmai ah na caeh vaengah, khopong la na luei vaengah. (Selah)
8 the earth quaked, and the heavens shook before God, the one of Sinai; before God, the God of Israel.
Israel Pathen, Pathen hmai ah, Sinai Pathen hmai ah, diklai he hinghuen tih vaan khaw cip.
9 You sent plenty of rain to water the promised land; refreshing it when it was dry.
Pathen namah loh kothoh khonal nan suep tih thahnoeng khaw na rho neh na thoh.
10 Your people settled there, and because of your kindness, God, you looked after the poor. (Selah)
Pathen nang loh mangdaeng ham na hnothen te na soepboe pah tih a khuiah na hingnah loh kho a sak uh.
11 The Lord gives the command, and a great army of women spread the good news.
Ka Boeipa loh a olkhueh te a paek tih olthangthen aka phong caempuei khaw len.
12 The kings of the foreign armies are quick to run away, and the women who stayed at home divide the plunder!
Manghai rhoek kah caempuei loh yong rhoela yong uh tih im kah toitlim te kutbuem la a tael.
13 Why are you staying at home? There are ornaments in the shape of a dove with wings of silver and feathers of fine gold to be taken.
Tuvong ah na yalh uh vaengkah te, cak neh a hluk vahui phae, sui hing neh a hluk phaemul van pawn ni.
14 The Almighty scattered the foreign kings like a snowstorm on Mount Zalmon.
Tlungthang Pathen loh a khuikah manghai rhoek a taek a yak vaengah Zalmon ah vuel bo.
15 “Mountain of God,” Mount Bashan, with your many high peaks, Mount Bashan,
Pathen kah tlang, Bashan tlang, Bashan tlang kah tlang som rhoek,
16 why do you look enviously, mountain with many peaks, at the mountain God chose as his home, where the Lord will live forever?
Ba dongah tlang som rhoek loh na pangoe uh. Tekah tlang te Pathen amah loh khosak thil ham a nai tih BOEIPA loh yoeyah la kho a sak thil ni.
17 God's chariots can't be counted; there are thousands and thousands of them. He comes among them from Sinai into his Temple.
Pathen kah leng tah a rhaepnah thawng thawngrha lo. Hmuencim kah aka om Sinai kah amih lakli ah Boeipa om.
18 As you ascended to your high throne you led a procession of prisoners. You received gifts from the people, even from those who had rebelled against the home of the Lord God.
Hmuen sang la na luei tih tamna rhoek na sol vaengah BOEIPA Pathen namah loh khosak puei ham hlang taeng neh thinthah rhoek taengkah kutdoe pataeng na doe.
19 May the Lord be blessed, for every day he carries our burdens. God is our salvation. (Selah)
Ka Boeipa tah a hnin, hnin ah a yoethen pai saeh. Mamih kah khangnah Pathen tah mamih ham thinrhih coeng. (Selah)
20 For us, God is a God who saves. The Lord God provides our escape from death.
Mamih kah Pathen tah khangnah Pathen la om tih, ka Boeipa Yahovah taengah dueknah lamkah longrhael khaw om.
21 But God will crush the heads of his enemies, the hairy heads of those who continue to sin.
Amah kah tholhnah neh aka pongpa tah Pathen loh thunkha lu bangla a luki sam soah a phop ni.
22 The Lord says, “I will drag them down from Bashan; I will drag them up from the depths of the sea,
Ka Boeipa loh, “Bashan lamkah kam bal puei vetih tuitunli kah a laedil lamkah kam mael puei ni.
23 so that you may walk in their blood. Even your dogs will have their share of your enemies.”
Te vaengah thunkha lamkah thii na kho na nuem thil te na ui rhoek loh a lai neh a laeh uh vetih, amih kah rhuimal khaw na pang uh ni,” a ti.
24 People watch your processions, God—the processions of my God and King as they go into the Temple.
Pathen namah kah lambong rhoek, ka Pathen, ka manghai kah lambong rhoek loh hmuencim la a khong uh te a hmuh uh coeng.
25 The singers are at the front, the musicians at the back, and in the middle girls playing tambourines.
Laa sa rhoek loh lamhma uh tih a hnukthoi loh a tumbael a tum, a laklung kah hula rhoek loh toemrhang a tum uh.
26 Praise God, everyone who has come to worship; praise the Lord, everyone who belongs to Israel.
Pathen te khangkhung lakli ah, BOEIPA te Israel thunsih ah uem lah.
27 There is the little tribe of Benjamin, followed by the many leaders from Judah; then come the leaders of Zebulun and Naphtali.
Canoi Benjamin loh Judah mangpa hlangkuk rhoek, Zebulun mangpa rhoek, Naphtali mangpa rhoek te a taemrhai.
28 Display your power, God! Reveal your strength, Lord, as you have done for us in the past.
Pathen namah loh na sarhi te uen lamtah kaimih ham na saii bangla Pathen namah te mah tanglue lah.
29 Because of your Temple in Jerusalem, kings bring tribute to you.
Na bawkim rhang neh manghai rhoek loh nang ham kutdoe te Jerusalem la hang khuen uh ni.
30 Condemn the beasts of the reeds, the bulls and calves! May they be humbled and bring bars of silver in tribute! Scatter the war-loving nations!
Capu mulhing ke tluung lah. Pilnam saelca rhoek neh aka lueng rhaengpuei khaw cak boeng neh a san thil. Caemrhal aka ngaih pilnam rhoek khaw a haeh.
31 Let Egypt come with bronze gifts; let Ethiopia come quickly and hand over their tributes to God!
Egypt lamkah laipai rhoek halo uh ni. Kusah loh Pathen taengah a kut a duen ni.
32 Sing to God, kingdoms of the earth, sing praises to the Lord. (Selah)
Diklai ram rhoek loh Pathen te hlai uh lamtah ka Boeipa te tingtoeng uh. (Selah)
33 Sing to the rider of the ancient heavens, his strong voice sounding like thunder!
Hlamat lamkah vaan dong vaan dongah aka ngol loh a ol neh sarhi ol a paek coeng ke.
34 Let everyone know of God's power: how his majesty extends over Israel, how his strength is revealed in the heavens.
Pathen kah sarhi te doek uh lah. A hoemnah neh khomong dongkah a sarhi tah Israel soah om.
35 How awesome is God in his Temple! The God of Israel gives strength and power to his people! Praise God!
Pathen namah kah rhokso ah a rhih om pai. Israel Pathen amah loh pilnam taengah sarhi neh thadueng a paek. Pathen tah a yoethen pai saeh.
