< Psalms 56 >

1 For the Leader; upon Jonath-elem-rehokim. A Psalm of David; Michtam; when the Philistines took him in Gath. Be gracious unto me, O God, for man would swallow me up; all the day he fighting oppresseth me.
Katoeng kruek zaehoikung hanah. Anih mah oih ih bungmu loe, angthla parai oak thing pong ih pahuu baktiah oh. Gath ah Philistin kaminawk mah David naeh o naah David ih miktam. Aw Sithaw, na tahmen ah, kaminawk loe kai caak hanah, ni thokkruek ang pacaekthlaek o.
2 They that lie in wait for me would swallow me up all the day; for they are many that fight against me, O Most High,
Aw Kasang koek, ka misanawk mah kai caak hanah, ni thokkruek ang tuk o; nihcae loe paroeai pop o.
3 In the day that I am afraid, I will put my trust in Thee.
Zithaih hoi ka oh naah, nang khaeah ka buep han.
4 In God — I will praise His word — in God do I trust, I will not be afraid; what can flesh do unto me?
A lok to ka pakoeh han, Sithaw ka oep pongah ka zii mak ai, kami mah kawbangmaw na naa thai tih?
5 All the day they trouble mine affairs; all their thoughts are against me for evil.
Nihcae loe ni thokkruek ka loknawk to tamet o, ka nuiah kahoih ai poekhaih a tawnh o.
6 They gather themselves together, they hide themselves, they mark my steps; according as they have waited for my soul.
Nihcae mah ka hinghaih tamit hanah angang o naah, nawnto amkhueng o, anghawk o moe, ka caehhaih khok tangkan to khet parui o.
7 Because of iniquity cast them out; in anger bring down the peoples, O God.
Nihcae loe sakpazaehaih hoiah loih o tih maw? Aw Sithaw, palung na phuihaih hoiah to kaminawk to amtimsak ah.
8 Thou has counted my wanderings; put Thou my tears into Thy bottle; are they not in Thy book?
Ahmuen kruekah kam hethaih to na poek paeh loe, ka mikkhraetuinawk hae nangmah ih pailang thungah na khrum paeh: to mikkhraetuinawk loe na cabu thungah oh na ai maw?
9 Then shall mine enemies turn back in the day that I call; this I know, that God is for me.
Sithaw kai khaeah oh pongah, kang kawk naah, ka misanawk loe hnukbangah angnawn o tih, tiah ka panoek.
10 In God — I will praise His word — in the LORD — I will praise His word —
Sithaw oephaih hoiah a lok to ka pakoeh han; Sithaw oephaih hoiah a lok to ka pakoeh han.
11 In God do I trust, I will not be afraid; what can man do unto me?
Sithaw ka oep pongah ka zii mak ai; kami mah kawbangmaw na naa thai tih?
12 Thy vows are upon me, O God; I will render thank-offerings unto Thee.
Aw Sithaw, na hmaa ah lokmaihaih ka sak baktih toengah; nang pakoehhaih laa to ka sak han.
13 For thou hast delivered my soul from death; hast Thou not delivered my feet from stumbling? that I may walk before God in the light of the living.
Tipongah tih nahaeloe duekhaih thung hoiah nang loisak boeh; Sithaw hmaa ah ka hing kaminawk ih aanghaih hoiah ka caeh thai hanah, ka khok hae nam thaeksak ai.
