Psalms 39
1 To the excellent musician Ieduthun. I thought, I will take heede to my wayes, that I sinne not with my tongue: I will keepe my mouth brideled, while the wicked is in my sight.
Ka cehnaak lam awh ce kang ngaih ta nawh kam lai awm thlawlhnaak awhkawng khoem vang; thlakchekhqi ka haiawh a awm khui awhtaw kam kha ve cyp vang,” ti nyng.
2 I was dumme and spake nothing: I kept silece euen from good, and my sorow was more stirred.
Cehlai awimyh na awm poek poek nawh, ik-oeih leek kqawn kaana ka awm awh zani, kak kawseetnaak ing pung hy.
3 Mine heart was hote within me, and while I was musing, the fire kindeled, and I spake with my tongue, saying,
Kak kawk khuiawh kak kawlung hlawk nawh, poek typ typ nyng saw, mai ce kqawng hy; cawhtaw kam lai ing awi ce kqawn nyng.
4 Lord, let me know mine ende, and the measure of my dayes, what it is: let mee knowe howe long I haue to liue.
Aw Bawipa, ka hqing dytnaak ce nim huh nawhtaw khawnyn iqyt nu ka hqing kaw tice nim huh lah; ka hqingnaak ve choet ca mai ni ti ni sim sak lah.
5 Beholde, thou hast made my dayes as an hand breadth, and mine age as nothing in respect of thee: surely euery man in his best state is altogether vanitie. (Selah)
Ka hqing khui khawsaknaak ve kut pha teh doeng ni sai tiksaw; ka hqingnaak ve na haiawh ik choet awm am law hy. Thlang boeih a hqingnaak ve hqi doek khoeih mai ni.
6 Doubtlesse man walketh in a shadowe, and disquieteth himselfe in vaine: he heapeth vp riches, and cannot tell who shall gather them.
Thlanghqing ve huhai na ak cet myihlip ing myih hy; amah poek awhtaw tamtaw soeih lawt hlai hy, a zap mai ni; them awm cun hlai hy, u ing a pang kaw tice am sim hy.
7 And now Lord, what wait I for? mine hope is euen in thee.
Cehlai tuh Bawipa, kai ing u nu ka sui? Kang ngaih-u-naak taw nang awh ni a awm.
8 Deliuer me from all my transgressions, and make me not a rebuke vnto the foolish.
Ka sai thawlhnaak ak khui awhkawng ni hul nawhtaw; thlakqawkhqi ak kqawnseet na koeh ni sai.
9 I should haue bene dumme, and not haue opened my mouth, because thou didest it.
Awimyh na awm nyng saw; kam kha am awng nyng, kawtih, ve ve nang ing na sai hawh ni.
10 Take thy plague away from mee: for I am consumed by the stroke of thine hand.
Na ni vyknaak ve ka ven awhkawng khoe hlah; na kut zawk hawh nyng.
11 When thou with rebukes doest chastise man for iniquitie, thou as a mothe makest his beautie to consume: surely euery man is vanitie. (Selah)
A thawlhnaak awh thlangkhqi ce zyi nawh toel hyk ti; thlang boeih ve hqi doek khoeih mai ni.
12 Heare my prayer, O Lord, and hearken vnto my cry: keepe not silence at my teares, for I am a strager with thee, and a soiourner as all my fathers.
Aw Bawipa, kak cykcahnaak ve ngai law lah, qeennaak thoeh doena kak khynaak awi ve ngai lah; kang kqangnaak ve nang haa koeh kqek sih lah. Ikawtih, na venawh khin amyihna awm nyng saw, ka pakhqi amyihna thlak chang na awm nyng.
13 Stay thine anger from me, that I may recouer my strength, before I go hence and be not.
Cet nawh am ka awm voel naak tym apha hlan awh ka zeelnaak tlaih aham, ak chang na ning mang tak mai.
