< Psalms 10 >

1 Why stand you afar off, O LORD? why hide you yourself in times of trouble?
Aw Bawipa, kawtih ak hla na nang dyih? Kyinaak a awm huiawh kawtih nang thuh qu valh?
2 The wicked in his pride does persecute the poor: let them be taken in the devices that they have imagined.
Ak oek qu soeih thlak che ing tha amak awm thlangkhqi, amah ing teng nawh am tu thlangkhqi ce hquut hy.
3 For the wicked boasts of his heart’s desire, and blesses the covetous, whom the LORD abhors.
Ak kawlung hymnaak awh oek qu nawh; ak lawn na ak ngaih ce zoeksang nawh Bawipa taw hlah phlam hy.
4 The wicked, through the pride of his countenance, will not seek after God: God is not in all his thoughts.
Ak oek qu thlak che ingtaw amah ingkaw amah am sui qu nawh; Ak poeknaak boeih awh Khawsa ham hun qoe am awm hy.
5 His ways are always grievous; your judgments are far above out of his sight: as for all his enemies, he puffs at them.
A lamkhqi boeih awh a zo awm hy. Anaa a hqam aih awh nang a cawngpyinaak awi ing hla qu hy nih; a qaalkhqi boeih ce huhsitnaak ing qaih na hy.
6 He has said in his heart, I shall not be moved: for I shall never be in adversity.
Amah ingtaw, Ikaw ingawm am ning tah sak tikaw; zeel loet nyng saw kyinaak am hu tang tikawng” tinawh poek hy.
7 His mouth is full of cursing and deceit and fraud: under his tongue is mischief and vanity.
Anih am kha taw seet lawhnaak, qaainaak ingkaw kqih am hqinnaak ing be hy, am lai awh awm kyinaak ingkaw seetnaak doek khoeih ni.
8 He sits in the lurking places of the villages: in the secret places does he murder the innocent: his eyes are privately set against the poor.
Khawkeng imceng khqi awh ngawi nawh, ak awm poek poek khqi ce mam nawh him hy.
9 He lies in wait secretly as a lion in his den: he lies in wait to catch the poor: he does catch the poor, when he draws him into his net.
Sendeih ing ak kawk khui awhkawng a qeh dym amyihna, a hlip naak awh qeh hy, hulkung amak awm thlang ce tu aham qeh nawh; bawmkung amak awmkhqi ce lawk ing sing hy.
10 He crouches, and humbles himself, that the poor may fall by his strong ones.
A thekhanaak thlangkhqi ce kqih am hqin hy; cekkhqi ce ak thaawmnaak khuiawh tlaak sak khqi hy.
11 He has said in his heart, God has forgotten: he hides his face; he will never see it.
Amah ingtaw Khawsa ing hilh hawh hy; a hai sing khoep nawh am hu thai voel hy” tina poek hy.
12 Arise, O LORD; O God, lift up your hand: forget not the humble.
Aw Bawipa, tho hlah! Aw Khawsa na kut thlek hlah, hulkung amak ta thlangkhqi ce koeh hilh.
13 Why does the wicked scorn God? he has said in his heart, You will not require it.
Thlak che ing kawtih Bawipa a thekha naak? Ikawtih amah ingkaw amah, “Ikaw am ni tina tang”, tina ak poek hy voei?
14 You have seen it; for you behold mischief and spite, to requite it with your hand: the poor commits himself to you; you are the helper of the fatherless.
Cehlai aw Khawsa, kyinaak ingkaw ko kqangnaak ve toek nawhtaw; na kut khuiawh lawh aham poek lah. Kyinaak ak hukhqi ing nang a venawh pe qu unawh, pa amak takhqi ak hulkung na awm hyk ti.
15 Break you the arm of the wicked and the evil man: seek out his wickedness till you find none.
Thlak chekhqi ingkaw thlak thawlh a baan ce hqem pe nawh; huh thai na ama awm hlan dy awh a thawlhnaak ce tlet pe lah.
16 The LORD is King for ever and ever: the heathen are perished out of his land.
Bawipa taw kumqui awhkawng kumqui dy sangpahrang na awm hy; pilnam thlangkhqi taw a kut awhkawng kqeng bang kawm uh.
17 LORD, you have heard the desire of the humble: you will prepare their heart, you will cause your ear to hear:
Aw Bawipa, khuikha ak hukhqi a ngaihnaak ce zaak penawh; tha na peek coengawh, cekkhqi ang kqangnaak awi ce ngai pe hyk ti.
18 To judge the fatherless and the oppressed, that the man of the earth may no more oppress.
Pa amak takhqi ingkaw a thenaak khqi ce dyih pyi nawh, khawmdek thlangkhqi ing cekkhqi ce am huhsit hqa voel hy.
