Psalms 144

1 A Psalm of David. Blessed be the LORD my Rock, who traineth my hands for war, and my fingers for battle;

David kah Caemtloek ham ka kutdawn neh caemrhal ham ka kut aka cang puei, ka lungpang BOEIPA tah a yoethen pai saeh.

2 My lovingkindness, and my fortress, my high tower, and my deliverer; my shield, and He in whom I take refuge; who subdueth my people under me.

Ka sitlohnah neh ka rhalvong, ka imsang neh kai ham kai aka hlawt ka photling, ka hmuiah ka pilnam aka hnaa amah dongah ni ka ying.

3 LORD, what is man, that Thou takest knowledge of him? or the son of man, that Thou makest account of him?

BOEIPA aw hlang te metlam nim na ming tih amah hlanghing capa te amah la na moeh.

4 Man is like unto a breath; his days are as a shadow that passeth away.

Hlang he a hohing la lutlat tih a khohnin khaw mueihlip bangla khum.

5 O LORD, bow Thy heavens, and come down; touch the mountains, that they may smoke.

BOEIPA namah kah vaan ke koisu lamtah ha rhum laeh. Tlang ke puei lamtah khuu uh kangna saeh.

6 Cast forth lightning, and scatter them; send out Thine arrows, and discomfit them.

Rhaek daeh sak lamtah amih te taekyak lah. Na thaltang dong lamtah amih te khawkkhek lah.

7 Stretch forth Thy hands from on high; rescue me, and deliver me out of many waters, out of the hand of strangers;

Hmuensang lamkah na kut yueng lamtah kai m'paco lah. Tui len lamkah khaw, kholong hlang kah kut lamlong khaw kai n'huul lah.

8 Whose mouth speaketh falsehood, and their right hand is a right hand of lying.

Amih ka te a poeyoek la cal uh tih a bantang bantang ah laithae om.

9 O God, I will sing a new song unto Thee, upon a psaltery of ten strings will I sing praises unto Thee;

Pathen namah taengah laa thai ka sa saeh lamtah namah te thangpa parha neh kan tingtoeng eh.

10 Who givest salvation unto kings, who rescuest David Thy servant from the hurtful sword.

Manghai rhoek te loeihnah aka pae tih a sal David te boethae cunghang lamloh aka paco.

11 Rescue me, and deliver me out of the hand of strangers, whose mouth speaketh falsehood, and their right hand is a right hand of lying.

Kai he m'paco lamtah kholong ca rhoek kut lamloh kai n'huul lah. Amih ka te a poeyoek la cal tih a bantang bantang ah a honghi kak la om.

12 We whose sons are as plants grown up in their youth; whose daughters are as corner-pillars carved after the fashion of a palace;

Kaimih koca rhoek tah a camoe vaengah mupoe bangla rhoeng. Ka tu rhoek te bawkim muei la a saek rhungsut bangla omuh.

13 Whose garners are full, affording all manner of store; whose sheep increase by thousands and ten thousands in our fields;

Ka thaidi loh a com a luem lamkah te a khawk la a dang. Ka khohmuen ah ka boiva loh thawt tih pungtai.

14 Whose oxen are well laden; with no breach, and no going forth, and no outcry in our broad places;

Ka boeihlum aka tloeng khaw puut pawt tih khumpael pawh. Te dongah henah loh kaimih toltung ah om pawh.

15 Happy is the people that is in such a case. Yea, happy is the people whose God is the LORD.

Amah kah pilnam te tah a yoethen pai. BOEIPA te a Pathen la aka khueh pilnam te tah a yoethen pai.
