Psalms 81
1 For the Leader; upon the Gittith. A Psalm of Asaph. Sing aloud unto God our strength; shout unto the God of Jacob.
Ningmih a Khawsa thak awm soeih a venawh zeel doena laa sa lah uh; Jacob a Khawsa venawh khawteh na khy lah uh!
2 Take up the melody, and sound the timbrel, the sweet harp with the psaltery.
Tumding tum unawh, poeng ak beei khoek lah uh, ak awi ak ding tingtoeng ingkaw qaw tingtoeng ing kyihcah lah uh.
3 Blow the horn at the new moon, at the full moon for our feast-day.
Pihla a thei nyn awh tuu’m cai ak ki yng unawh pihla a lum awh ce, ningnih a khawnghig nyn awh;
4 For it is a statute for Israel, an ordinance of the God of Jacob.
Ve ve Israelkhqi ham awipeek na awm hy, Jacob a Khawsa bawknaak awipeek na awm hy.
5 He appointed it in Joseph for a testimony, when He went forth against the land of Egypt. The speech of one that I knew not did I hear:
Ningmih ing am ning zaak sim awi ningzak naak Izip qam na a ceh awh, Joseph aham awipeek amyihna cak pe sak hy.
6 'I removed his shoulder from the burden; His hands were freed from the basket.
Anih ing ak phleng awhkaw phyihqih ce khoe pe nawh; ami kutkhqi ing vaihqang awm am nen sak voel nyng.
7 Thou didst call in trouble, and I rescued thee; I answered thee in the secret place of thunder; I proved thee at the waters of Meribah. (Selah)
Ngaihkyi doena nik khy tiksaw nim hlat nyng, khawhum ak khui awhkawng nim hlat khqi nyng saw, Meribah tui awhkawng ni noekdak khqi nyng.
8 Hear, O My people, and I will admonish thee: O Israel, if thou wouldest hearken unto Me!
Aw kak thlangkhqi, ngai lah uh, ngaihtaaknaak awi nik kqawn pek khqi vang – Aw Israel, kak awi ve ngai lah thaw voei uk ti!
9 There shall no strange god be in thee; neither shalt thou worship any foreign god.
Qap chang a khawsa ce nangmih anglak li awh koeh ta kawm u tiksaw; thalk chang a khawsa a venawh koeh ta kawm uk ti.
10 I am the LORD thy God, who brought thee up out of the land of Egypt; open thy mouth wide, and I will fill it.
Kai taw Izip qam awhkawng nangmih ak hquikung, Bawipa na Khawsa na awm nyng.
11 But My people hearkened not to My voice; and Israel would none of Me.
Cehlai kak thlangkhqi ing kak awi am ngai uhy; Israel ing ka venawh am ap qu uhy.
12 So I let them go after the stubbornness of their heart, that they might walk in their own counsels.
A mimah am thinsahnaak amyihna a mimah a ngaihnaak hqut aham hlah khqi hyt nyng.
13 Oh that My people would hearken unto Me, that Israel would walk in My ways!
Kak thlangkhqi ing kak awi mah aming ngai mantaw, Israel ing ka lam ve mah a hqut mantaw,
14 I would soon subdue their enemies, and turn My hand against their adversaries.
a qaalkhqi ce ang tawnna noeng pe nyng saw a qaalkhqi benna ka kut ve hlah pe voei nyng!
15 The haters of the LORD should dwindle away before Him; and their punishment should endure for ever.
Bawipa ak sawhnaak thlangkhqi ce a haiawh kqih doena kyn hqoeng kawm uh, a mingmih a toelnaak ce kumqui dyna awm hawh kaw.
16 They should also be fed with the fat of wheat; and with honey out of the rock would I satisfy thee.'
Cehlai nang ingtaw buh ak tui soeih ai kawm tiksaw, lungkaw awhkaw khawitui ing nak phoen ni phyi sak kawng nyng,” tihy.
