Psalms 43

1 Be Thou my judge, O God, and plead my cause against an ungodly nation; O deliver me from the deceitful and unjust man.

Kathutkung: Korah capanaw Oe Cathut, lawk na ceng pouh haw. Cathutlaipa e miphunnaw hmalah ka kong heh lawk na ceng pouh haw. Oe tamikathoutnaw hoi kadumyennaw koehoi na rungngang haw.

2 For Thou art the God of my strength; why hast Thou cast me off? Why go I mourning under the oppression of the enemy?

Bangkongtetpawiteh, nang teh kaie Cathut rapanim doeh. Bangkongmaw na hnoun. Bangkongmaw na ka tarannaw kecu ka lung ouk a mathoe.

3 O send out Thy light and Thy truth; let them lead me; let them bring me unto Thy holy mountain, and to Thy dwelling-places.

Oe, na angnae hoi lawkkatang hah patoun haw. Hot niyah na hrawi naseh. Na mon kathoung hoi na onae lukkareiim dawk na phatkhai naseh.

4 Then will I go unto the altar of God, unto God, my exceeding joy; and praise Thee upon the harp, O God, my God.

Hottelah Cathut e thuengnae khoungroe, ka konawmnae Cathut koe ka cei han. Oe Cathut, ka Cathut, ratoung hoi na pholen han.

5 Why art thou cast down, O my soul? and why moanest thou within me? Hope thou in God; for I shall yet praise Him, the salvation of my countenance, and my God.

Oe ka hringnae Bangkongmaw na lung a mathoe. Bangkongmaw ka thung vah, runae na kâhmo. Cathut hah kâuep haw, ama teh ka pholen han. Na kabawmkung hoi na kadamsakkung Cathut doeh.
