Psalms 83
1 A song. A psalm of Asaph. God, please do not stay silent! You can't remain unmoved! God, you must not keep quiet!
Kathutkung: Asaph Oe Cathut, duem awm hanh leih, lawk tho laipalah duem awm hanh. Oe Cathut duem awm hanh.
2 Can't you hear the roars of your enemies? Can't you see how those who hate you are defiantly lifting up their heads?
Na tarannaw teh ruengruengti awh. Nang kahmuhmanaw teh a loungouk awh.
3 They invent cunning plans to conspire against your people; they plot against those you treasure.
Na taminaw taranlahoi hnephnap hoi kho a khan awh teh, na hro e na taminaw taran laihoi pouknae a kâoup awh.
4 They say, “Come on! Let's destroy them as a nation so the name ‘Israel’ will be completely forgotten.”
Tho awh, miphun lah aonae koehoi raphoe awh sei, Isarel min hai panue hoeh nahanlah ati awh.
5 They all agree in their conspiracy; they've made a treaty together to attack you—
Lungpouk buet touh lah, a kâpan awh teh, nang taranlahoi lawkkamnae teh a sak awh.
6 the people of Edom, the Ishmaelites, Moab, and the Hagirites;
Edom hoi Ishmael rim dawk kaawmnaw, Moab hoi Hagar,
7 the people of Gebal and Ammon and Amalek, Philistia, and the inhabitants of Tyre.
Gebal hoi Amon, Amalek hoi Filistin, hoi Taire kaawm e naw hoi lawkkam a sak awh.
8 Assyria too has joined them, allied with the descendants of Lot. (Selah)
Assyria hai ahnimouh koelah a kambawng teh, Lot catounnaw hah a kabawp. (Selah)
9 Do to them what you did to Midian, what you did to Sisera and Jabin at the Kishon River.
Ahnimouh teh Midian koe na sak e patetlah, Kishion palang vah Sisera koehoi Jabin koe na sak e patetlah, bout sak pouh haw.
10 They were destroyed at Endor and became like manure to fertilize the ground.
Ahnimouh teh Endor vah a due awh teh, talai dawk vaipuen lah a coung awh.
11 Make their leaders like Oreb and Zeeb; all their rulers like Zebah and Zalmunna,
A tami kalennaw teh Oreb hoi Zeeb patetlah sak nateh, Bokheiyah, ahnimae siangpahrang pueng hah Zeeb hoi Zalmunna patetlah sak haw.
12 for they said, “Let's take the pastures of God for ourselves!”
Hotnaw ni Cathut e saring pânae hmuen koehoi, kamamouh hanlah ka la awh han ati awh.
13 My God, make them like whirling tumbleweeds, chaff blown away by the wind.
Oe Cathut ahnimouh teh vaiphu kahlî ni palek e hoi vaikong kahlî ni a palek e patetlah coung sak haw.
14 Just like fire that burns the forest, a flame that sets fire to the mountains,
Hmai ni thing a kak e hoi, mon hah hmai ni a kak e patetlah coung sak haw.
15 in the same way chase them down with your storm, terrify them with your whirlwind.
Ahnimouh teh na kahlî kathout hoi pâlei nateh, puenghoi katang e kahlî hoi pakhi haw.
16 Shame them in defeat so that they come to you, Lord!
Oe BAWIPA, na min a tawng awh nahan lah a minhmai ka paling lah kayak sak ngala haw.
17 Make them ashamed, terrify them forever so that they die in disgrace.
Nang dueng doeh BAWIPA min ka sin e hoi talai van pueng dawk Lathueng Poung lah na o e hah na panue thai awh nahanelah,
18 Let them understand that you alone, called the Lord, are the Most High who rules over all the earth.
Yeiraipo hoi rucat hoi pou awm sak haw. Bokheiyah, kaya hoi awm sak nateh, koung kahmat naseh.
