Psalms 57
1 For the Leader; Al-tashheth. A Psalm of David; Michtam; when he fled from Saul, in the cave. Be gracious unto me, O God, be gracious unto me, for in Thee hath my soul taken refuge; yea, in the shadow of Thy wings will I take refuge, until calamities be overpast.
Aw Khawsa, nim qeen lah, nim qeen lah, kawtih nang awh ni ka hqingnaak ang thuk. Plawcinaak ang khum hlan dy nang hlak khuiawh thuk vang nyng.
2 I will cry unto God Most high; unto God that accomplisheth it for me.
Kai aham ang cainaak ak soep sak Khawsa, sawsang soeih Khawsa venawh khy nyng.
3 He will send from heaven, and save me, when he that would swallow me up taunteth; (Selah) God shall send forth His mercy and His truth.
Anih ing khan nakawng tyi nawh kai ce ni hul hy, kai anik hquut khqek khqekkhqi ce toel hy.
4 My soul is among lions, I do lie down among them that are aflame; even the sons of men, whose teeth are spears and arrows, and their tongue a sharp sword.
Kai taw samthyyn anglak li awh awm nyng saw; qamsak tlung anglakawh zaih nyng – ce thlangkhqi a ha taw ak hqat soeih zawzi na awm hy.
5 Be Thou exalted, O God, above the heavens; Thy glory be above all the earth.
Aw Khawsa, khan poeng voelh dyna hak zoeksang qu lah; na boeimangnaak ve khawmdek boeih ak khan awh awm lah seh.
6 They have prepared a net for my steps, my soul is bowed down; they have digged a pit before me, they are fallen into the midst thereof themselves. (Selah)
Ka khaw ang awhnaak aham lawk zan law unawh kawboet doena ngam hqoeng nyng. Ka cehnaak lam awh lawk-kqawng co law hlai hy – a mimah ce lawk-kqawng awh tla lat uhy.
7 My heart is stedfast, O God, my heart is stedfast; I will sing, yea, I will sing praises.
Kam thin taw cak hy, Aw Bawipa kam thin ce cak hy; tingtoeng tum nawh laa sa vang.
8 Awake, my glory; awake, psaltery and harp; I will awake the dawn.
Ka hqingnaak, hqyng lah! Tingtoeng ingkaw qaw tingtoeng nang, hqyng lah! Kai taw mymcang hqit awh hqyng hawh kawng nyng.
9 I will give thanks unto Thee, O Lord, among the peoples; I will sing praises unto Thee among the nations.
Pilnam thlang anglak li awh, Aw Bawipa, nang ce nim kyihcah vang. Thlanghqing lak awh nang ce laa na ni sa vang.
10 For Thy mercy is great unto the heavens, and Thy truth unto the skies.
Ikawtih, na lungnaak taw bau nawh, khan hak pha hy; na ypawmnaak ing khan hak pha hy.
11 Be Thou exalted, O God, above the heavens; Thy glory be above all the earth.
Aw Khawsa, khan poe voelh dyna hak zoeksang qu lah; na boeimangnaak ve khawmdek boeih ak khan awh awm lah seh.
