Psalms 31
1 For the Leader. A Psalm of David. In thee, O LORD, have I taken refuge; let me never be ashamed; deliver me in Thy righteousness.
Aw Bawipa, nang awh ni kang thuk hy, chah koeh ni phyih sak; na dyngnaak awh ce ni hul lah.
2 Incline Thine ear unto me, deliver me speedily; be Thou to me a rock of refuge, even a fortress of defence, to save me.
Nang haa keng law nawhtaw, kai hul aham ang tawnna law lah; kang thuknaak lungnu na awm nawh, ka hulkung vawngcak na awm lah.
3 For Thou art my rock and my fortress; therefore for Thy name's sake lead me and guide me.
Nang taw kang thuknaak ingkaw ka vawngnu na, na awm a dawngawh nang ming ak caming ni ceh pyi nawhtaw ni hqui lah.
4 Bring me forth out of the net that they have hidden for me; for Thou art my stronghold.
Ka haiawh a dun qu thang awhkawng ni loet sak lah, nang taw kang thuknaak kung na na awm a dawngawh.
5 Into Thy hand I commit my spirit; Thou hast redeemed me, O LORD, Thou God of truth.
Na kut awh kang myihla ni pe nyng; Aw Bawipa awitak Khawsa ni hul lah.
6 I hate them that regard lying vanities; but I trust in the LORD.
Kawna amak awm myiqawl ak bawkkhqi ce sawh na nyng saw; Bawipa ce ypna nyng.
7 I will be glad and rejoice in Thy lovingkindness; for Thou hast seen mine affliction, Thou hast taken cognizance of the troubles of my soul,
Na lungnaak awh ce zeelmang ing awm vang, kawtih nang ing ka kyinaak ce hu law tiksaw kang myihla ing a khuikhanaak ce sim hyk ti.
8 And Thou hast not given me over into the hand of the enemy; Thou hast set my feet in a broad place.
Ka qaal a venawh amni pe nawh ka khaw qawi ve hun nepnaak awh ning dyih sak hyk ti.
9 Be gracious unto me, O LORD, for I am in distress; mine eye wasteth away with vexation, yea, my soul and my body.
Aw Bawipa ngaihang kawbin na ka awm a dawngawh, kai ve nim qeen lah; kak kawseet aih awh mik awm am dai hqa voel nyng; kang myihla ingkaw ka pum awm kawseet lungnat zawk hy.
10 For my life is spent in sorrow, and my years in sighing; my strength faileth because of mine iniquity, and my bones are wasted away.
Ka hqingnaak ve kawsetnaak ing daih nawh ka kumkhqi awm ko ang kqangnaak ing khaw kum boeih hy; ka khuikha aih awh kak tha awm boet hqoeng nawh, ka quh awm ak tha am awm voel hy.
11 Because of all mine adversaries I am become a reproach, yea, unto my neighbours exceedingly, and a dread to mine acquaintance; they that see me without flee from me.
Ka qaalkhqi dawngawh, ka pilnamkhqi ing ni hep unawh; ka pyikhqi ing nik kqih uhy - lam awh kai anik hukhqi ing ni centaak boeih uhy.
12 I am forgotten as a dead man out of mind; I am like a useless vessel.
Ak thi hawh amyihna cekkhqi ing nim hilh boeih uhy; dek-am ak kqek zak amyihna ni ka awm hqoeng hawh.
13 For I have heard the whispering of many, terror on every side; while they took counsel together against me, they devised to take away my life.
Thlang khawzah ing a mini tengnaak awi doeng za nyng; voei a vang awh kqihnaak hqoeng na awm hy; kai ing am ka ngaihnaak ben awh ce za qu unawh ka hqingnaak him aham cai uhy.
14 But as for me, I have trusted in Thee, O LORD; I have said: 'Thou art my God.'
Cehlai, Bawipa nang ni ka ni ypnaak; “nang taw ka Khawsa ni” ti nyng.
15 My times are in Thy hand; deliver me from the hand of mine enemies, and from them that persecute me.
Ka tymkhqi ve nang a kut khuiawh ni a awm; ka qaalkhqi ingkaw kai anik hqutkhqi kut khui awhkawng ni hul lah.
16 Make Thy face to shine upon Thy servant; save me in Thy lovingkindness.
Na tyihzawih ak khan awh na haai hlangpan sak nawh; amak dyt thai na lungnaak ing ni hul lah.
17 O LORD, let me not be ashamed, for I have called upon Thee; let the wicked be ashamed, let them be put to silence in the nether-world. (Sheol h7585)
Aw Bawipa, chah koeh ni phyih sak, nang a venawh ni kak khy law; cehlai thlak chekhqi taw chah phyih sak nawh phyi khuiawh awimyh na zaih sak khing lah. (Sheol h7585)
18 Let the lying lips be dumb, which speak arrogantly against the righteous, with pride and contempt.
Cekkhqi ing qaai awi amik kqawnnaak hui ce sit sak lah, oek qunaak ingkaw hepnaak ing thlakdyngkhqi ce amik kaa naak a dawngawh.
19 Oh how abundant is Thy goodness, which Thou hast laid up for them that fear Thee; which Thou hast wrought for them that take their refuge in Thee, in the sight of the sons of men!
Nang anik kqihkhqi aham cun pe nawh, thlanghqingkhqi haiawh nang awh ak thukkhqi aham na taak zoseennaak taw bau soeih hy.
20 Thou hidest them in the covert of Thy presence from the plottings of man; Thou concealest them in a pavilion from the strife of tongues.
Ang hyp na ak tengkungkhqi ven awhkawng na haai awhkaw awmnaak hun awh ak mawng na ta hyk ti.
21 Blessed be the LORD; for He hath shown me His wondrous lovingkindness in an entrenched city.
Khawk bau cak awh ka awm awh kawpoek kyi qeennaak ce ang dang law sak a dawngawh, Bawipa venawh thangleeknaak awm seh nyng.
22 As for me, I said in my haste: 'I am cut off from before Thine eyes'; nevertheless Thou heardest the voice of my supplications when I cried unto Thee.
Ka ly aih awh, “ning hawi taak valh hawh amih hyk ti!” ti nyng. Cehlai, qeennaak ka thoeh law awh ce qeennaak ing kak khynaak awi ce ngai law hyk ti.
23 O love the LORD, all ye His godly ones; the LORD preserveth the faithful, and plentifully repayeth him that acteth haughtily.
A thlakciimkhqi boeih aw, Bawipa ce lungna lah uh! Bawipa ing ypawm thlangkhqi ce hqui a sawi nawh ak oek qu thlangkhqi taw a khawboe amyihna thung pehy.
24 Be strong, and let your heart take courage, all ye that wait for the LORD.
Nangmih Bawipa awh ngaih-unaak ak takhqi boeih namik tha awm sak unawh na mim thin caksak lah uh.
