< Psalms 21 >
1 For the Leader. A Psalm of David. O LORD, in Thy strength the king rejoiceth; and in Thy salvation how greatly doth he exult!
Katoeng kruek zaehoikung hanah, David ih Saam laa. Aw Angraeng, siangpahrang loe na thacakhaih ah anghoe; na pahlonghaih pongah cae loe kawkruk maw anih anghoe tih!
2 Thou hast given him his heart's desire, and the request of his lips Thou hast not withholden. (Selah)
A pahni hoiah hnikhaih to na tamuep pae khoep ai moe, a koehhaih palung baktih toengah na paek boeh.
3 For Thou meetest him with choicest blessings; Thou settest a crown of fine gold on his head.
Anih hanah kahoih tahamhoihaih to na paek: a lu nuiah kaciim suitui hoi sak ih lumuek to nang mueksak boeh.
4 He asked life of Thee, Thou gavest it him; even length of days for ever and ever.
Anih mah hinghaih ang hnik naah, na paek, dungzan hoi dungzan khoek to kasawk hinghaih to na paek boeh.
5 His glory is great through Thy salvation; honour and majesty dost Thou lay upon him.
Na pahlonghaih rang hoiah anih loe paroeai len: pakoehhaih hoi huham ohhaih to a nuiah na suek pae.
6 For Thou makest him most blessed for ever; Thou makest him glad with joy in Thy presence.
Anih han dungzan tahamhoihaih na paek: na hmaa ah paroeai anghoehaih hoi na koisak.
7 For the king trusteth in the LORD, yea, in the mercy of the Most High; he shall not be moved.
Siangpahrang loe Angraeng to oep moe, Ranui koek tahmenhaih rang hoiah anih loe angthui mak ai.
8 Thy hand shall be equal to all thine enemies; thy right hand shall overtake those that hate thee.
Na ban mah na misanawk boih to hnu tih, na bantang ban mah nang hnuma kaminawk to hnu tih.
9 Thou shalt make them as a fiery furnace in the time of thine anger; the LORD shall swallow them up in His wrath, and the fire shall devour them.
Palung na phui naah nihcae to hmai kamngaeh omthuh baktiah na ohsak: Angraeng mah nihcae to palungphuihaih hoiah paaeh tih, nihcae to hmai mah kang tih.
10 Their fruit shalt thou destroy from the earth, and their seed from among the children of men.
Nihcae ih athaih to long hoiah nang hmaasak ueloe, kaminawk salak hoiah nihcae ih caanawk to nam rosak tih.
11 For they intended evil against thee, they imagined a device, wherewith they shall not prevail.
Nihcae loe na nuiah kasae sak han ih pacaeng o moe, kahoih ai hmuen to a poek o, toe nihcae mah sah o thai ai.
12 For thou shalt make them turn their back, thou shalt make ready with thy bowstrings against the face of them.
To pongah kalii to na nueng thuih moe, nihcae mikhmai ah na patoep naah, nihcae to hnukbang ah nam laemsak tih.
13 Be Thou exalted, O LORD, in Thy strength; so will we sing and praise Thy power.
Aw Angraeng, na thacakhaih hoiah nang pakoehhaih to om nasoe; na thacakhaih to laasakhaih hoiah kang saphaw o han.
