Psalms 16
1 Michtam of David. Keep me, O God; for I have taken refuge in Thee.
Miktam lok hoi sak koi David ih Saam laa. Aw Sithaw, na pakaa ah, nang khaeah ni ka buep.
2 I have said unto the LORD: 'Thou art my Lord; I have no good but in Thee';
Aw ka hinghaih, nang mah Angraeng khaeah, Nang loe ka Angraeng ni; nang ai ah loe ka hoihhaih tetta doeh ka tawn ai, tiah na naa.
3 As for the holy that are in the earth, they are the excellent in whom is all my delight.
Toe long ah kaom kaciim kaminawk hoi lensawkhaih hoiah koi kaminawk to ka palung.
4 Let the idols of them be multiplied that make suit unto another; their drink-offerings of blood will I not offer, nor take their names upon my lips.
Kalah sithaw khaeah caawn kaminawk loe palungsethaih pung aep tih: naek han a paek o ih athii hoiah angbawnhaih ka sah mak ai; pahni hoiah nihcae ih ahminnawk bokhaih lok to ka thui mak ai.
5 O LORD, the portion of mine inheritance and of my cup, Thou maintainest my lot.
Angraeng loe ka toep han koi kai ih qawk hoi boengloeng ah oh: ka toep han koi taham doeh nang pahoe pae boeh.
6 The lines are fallen unto me in pleasant places; yea, I have a goodly heritage.
Kahoih koek ahmuen ah nang suek; ue, kahoih qawk to ka toep boeh.
7 I will bless the LORD, who hath given me counsel; yea, in the night seasons my reins instruct me.
Ka poekhaih paekkung, Angraeng to ka pakoeh han: aqum ah doeh ka plungthin mah na lok hoiah ang thuitaek.
8 I have set the LORD always before me; surely He is at my right hand, I shall not be moved.
Angraeng to ka hmaa ah ka suek toepsoep: anih loe ka bantang bangah oh pongah, kang thui mak ai.
9 Therefore my heart is glad, and my glory rejoiceth; my flesh also dwelleth in safety;
To pongah ka palungthin loe anghoe moe, ka lensawkhaih doeh anghoe: ka taksa doeh oephaih hoiah om tih.
10 For Thou wilt not abandon my soul to the nether-world; neither wilt Thou suffer Thy godly one to see the pit. (Sheol h7585)
Ka muithla hae hell thungah na caeh taak mak ai; Ciimcai nangmah ih kami doeh na qongsak mak ai. (Sheol h7585)
11 Thou makest me to know the path of life; in Thy presence is fulness of joy, in Thy right hand bliss for evermore.
Kai hanah hinghaih loklam to na patuek tih: kacung anghoehaih loe na hmaa ah oh, na bantang bangah loe dungzan anghoehaih to oh.
