< Psalms 40 >
1 For the Leader. A Psalm of David. I waited patiently for the LORD; and He inclined unto me, and heard my cry.
Bawipa ce kawdungnaak ing ka qeh dawngawh; kai benna mang law nawh kang kqangnaak awi ce za hy.
2 He brought me up also out of the tumultuous pit, out of the miry clay; and He set my feet upon a rock, He established my goings.
Lawk-kqawng dek nawng ak plai ak khui awhkawng nik dawk nawh, lungnu awh ka khaw ce ni leh sak hy, kang dyihnaak na hun nep ce ni pehy.
3 And He hath put a new song in my mouth, even praise unto our God; many shall see, and fear, and shall trust in the LORD.
Ningmih a Khawsa kyihcahnaak lak thai ce kam kha awh ta law hy. Thlang khawzah ing ami huh awh ce kqih kawm usaw Bawipa ce ypna kawm uh.
4 Happy is the man that hath made the LORD his trust, and hath not turned unto the arrogant, nor unto such as fall away treacherously.
Bawipa ak ypnaak thlang, amak thym khawsakhqi benna hawi unawh ak oek qu thlang amak toek taw a zoseen hy.
5 Many things hast Thou done, O LORD my God, even Thy wonderful works, and Thy thoughts toward us; there is none to be compared unto Thee! If I would declare and speak of them, they are more than can be told.
Aw Bawipa ka Khawsa, kawpoek kyi na saikhqi doem soeih hy. Kaimih aham ik-oeih na qaalkhqi ve a doem soeih a dawngawh u ingawm am dang sak thai noeng hy, cemyihkhqi ce kqawn qoe nyng seiawm, noet noeng kaa ingkaw kqawn noeng kaana doem soeih hy.
6 Sacrifice and meal-offering Thou hast no delight in; mine ears hast Thou opened; burnt-offering and sin-offering hast Thou not required.
Bulnaak lucik nawn ce am hy tiksaw, kang haa ni vyh pe hawh hyk ti; hyih phumnaak ingkaw thawlh bulnaak ce am ngoe hyk ti.
7 Then said I: 'Lo, I am come with the roll of a book which is prescribed for me;
Cawhtaw kai ing, “Vena awm nyng, law hawh nyng cahawn khuiawh ka kawng qee na awm hawh hy.
8 I delight to do Thy will, O my God; yea, Thy law is in my inmost parts.'
Aw ka Khawsa, nak kawngaih ce sai aham hy nawh; na anaa awi ce kak kawlung awh khoem khak nyng,” ka ti.
9 I have preached righteousness in the great congregation, lo, I did not refrain my lips; O LORD, Thou knowest.
Dyngnaak ce thlangkqeng anglakawh kqawn nawh; AW Bawipa na sim hawh amyihna ka hui am khyp nyng.
10 I have not hid Thy righteousness within my heart; I have declared Thy faithfulness and Thy salvation; I have not concealed Thy mercy and Thy truth from the great congregation.
Na dyngnaak ce kak kawk khuiawh am thuh nyng saw; na ypawmnaak ingkaw na hulnaak khqi ce kqawn nyng. Thlangkqeng khawzah anglakawh na lungnaak awitak ce am phah nyng.
11 Thou, O LORD, wilt not withhold Thy compassions from me; let Thy mercy and Thy truth continually preserve me.
Aw Bawipa, nam qeennaak ce ka hamna koeh hlawh lah; na lungnaak ingkaw nak awitak ing nik chung poepa seh.
12 For innumerable evils have compassed me about, mine iniquities have overtaken me, so that I am not able to look up; they are more than the hairs of my head, and my heart hath failed me.
Ikawtih, noet boeih kaa kyinaakkhqi ing nik chung khoep nawh; ka thawlhnaak ing anik chung hawh dawngawh, ka mik am dang voel hy. Ka lu awhkaw ka lusam anglakawh doem khqoet unawh, kak kaw boet hqoeng hy.
13 Be pleased, O LORD, to deliver me; O LORD, make haste to help me.
Aw Bawipa, kai hul aham nak kaw zeel sak lah; Aw Bawipa, kai hul aham ang tawnna law lah.
14 Let them be ashamed and abashed together that seek after my soul to sweep it away; let them be turned backward and brought to confusion that delight in my hurt.
Ka hqingnaak hqe aham ak tengkhqi ce chah qai phyi kawt na awm u seitaw ngai hangtum na awm lah u seh; kai plawci sak aham ak ngaihkhqi ce kawboet doena hlat u seh.
15 Let them be appalled by reason of their shame that say unto me: 'Aha, aha.'
A ha! kai anik tinaakkhqi ce amik chah aih awh cat lyt lyt u seh.
16 Let all those that seek Thee rejoice and be glad in Thee; let such as love Thy salvation say continually: 'The LORD be magnified.'
Cehlai, nang anik suikhqi boeih taw zeel u seitaw nang ak khan awh ce amik kaw zeel seh; ang quina, “Bawipa taw zoeksang na awm seh!” ti u seh.
17 But, as for me, that am poor and needy, the Lord will account it unto me; Thou art my help and my deliverer; O my God, tarry not.
Cehlai, kai taw khawdeng thlang ingkaw ak syt thlang na awm nyng; Bawipa ing nik poek seh. Nang taw ka hulkung ingkaw anik hulkung na awm hyk ti; Aw ka Khawsa, koeh yih.
