Psalms 143
1 Hear my prayer, O LORD, give ear to my supplications: in your faithfulness answer me, and in your righteousness.
Aw Bawipa, kak cykcahnaak awi ve ngai law nawhtaw, nam qeennaak thoeh doena kak khynaak awi ve ngai law lah; na ypawmnaak ingkaw na dyngnaak ce kai aham hoeihkhangnaak na awm lah seh.
2 And enter not into judgment with your servant: for in your sight shall no man living be justified.
Na tyihzawih ve awi koeh deng cang, kawtih na haiawh ak dyng thlang pynoet awm am awm hy.
3 For the enemy has persecuted my soul; he has smitten my life down to the ground; he has made me to dwell in darkness, as those that have been long dead.
Ka qaal ing ni hquut nawh dek nik khawng na hy; ak thi ce thlangkhqi amyihna thannaak khuiawh ni ta hyt hy.
4 Therefore is my spirit overwhelmed within me; my heart within me is desolate.
Cedawngawh ka kawk khuiawh kang myihla zai hqoeng nawh; kak kawlung kqihnaak ing be hy.
5 I remember the days of old; I meditate on all your works; I muse on the work of your hands.
Ak kqym a tym khqi poek nyng; na ik-oeih saikhqi boeih ce poek typ typ nyng saw na kut saikhqi ce poek nyng.
6 I stretch forth my hands to you: my soul thirsts after you, as a thirsty land. (Selah)
Nang benna kut phyl law nyng; qamkoh ing tui a ngaih amyihna ka hqingnaak ing nang ce tui amyihna ni ngaih hy.
7 Hear me speedily, O LORD: my spirit fails: hide not your face from me, lest I be like to them that go down into the pit.
Aw Bawipa, ang tawnna nim hlat lah; kang myihla zai hqoeng hawh hy. Ka venawh na haai koeh thuh law, cemyih am mantaw lawk-kqawng khuina khaw ak sakhqi amyihna awm hau lawt kawng unyng.
8 Cause me to hear your loving kindness in the morning; for in you do I trust: cause me to know the way wherein I should walk; for I lift up my soul to you.
Amak dyt thai nang a lungnaak ce mymcang ing haw law seh, kawtih nang ni ka ni ypnaak. Ka ceh hly kawi lam nim huh lah, nang benna ka hqingnaak ve hak zoek law nyng.
9 Deliver me, O LORD, from my enemies: I flee to you to hide me.
Aw Bawipa, ka qaal khqing lak awhkawng ni hul lah, nang ak khuiawh ni kang thuh qu hy.
10 Teach me to do your will; for you are my God: your spirit is good; lead me into the land of uprightness.
Ka Khawsa na na awm a dawngawh, nak kawngaih sai thainaak aham ni cawng sak lah; nang a koe ak leek Myihla ing lamtlang awh ni sawi lah seh.
11 Quicken me, O LORD, for your name’s sake: for your righteousness’ sake bring my soul out of trouble.
Aw Bawipa, nang ming ak caming ka hqingnaak ve khoem law lah; na dyngnaak ak caming kyinaak anglak li awhkawng ni loet sak lah.
12 And of your mercy cut off my enemies, and destroy all them that afflict my soul: for I am your servant.
Amak dyt thai na lungnaak ing, ka qaalkhqi sit sak lah; na tyihzawih na ka awm a dawngawh, ka qaalkhqi boeih ve hqe law lah.
