< Psalms 70 >
1 For the music director. A psalm of David. For a memorial. God, save me! Hurry, Lord, help me!
Katoeng kruek zaehoikung hanah. David mah tahmen hnikhaih. Aw Sithaw, karangah na pahlong ah; Aw Angraeng, kai abomh hanah karangah angzo ah.
2 Please defeat and humiliate the people who are trying to kill me; turn back in disgrace those who want to hurt me.
Ka hinghaih lak han pakrong kaminawk loe azathaih tongh o nasoe loe, anghmanghaih hoiah om o nasoe; kai raihaih paek koeh kaminawk loe hnuk amlaem o nasoe loe, palungboenghaih hoiah om o nasoe.
3 May they be shocked at their defeat, those who taunted me.
Kai hanah Aha, Aha, tiah pahnuithuih kaminawk loe azathaih hoiah amlaem o let nasoe.
4 But may everyone who comes to you be happy and glad; may those who love your salvation always say, “God is great!”
Nang pakrong kaminawk boih, nang ah anghoe o nasoe loe, nawm o nasoe; na pahlonghaih koeh kaminawk mah, Sithaw loe dungzan khoek to lensawkhaih om nasoe, tiah thui o nasoe.
5 As for me, I am poor and needy. Hurry, God, help me! Save me! Lord, don't wait!
Toe kai loe amtang moe, caaknaek vawt kami ah ka oh; Aw Sithaw, kai khaeah karangah angzo ah; nang loe kai bomkung hoi kai pahlongkung ah na oh; aw Angraeng, akra hmah.
