Psalms 35
1 Plead my cause, O LORD, with them that strive with me: fight against them that fight against me.
Kathutkung: Devit Oe BAWIPA, kai na ka tarannaw hah, taran van haw. Kai na katuknaw hah tuk van haw.
2 Take hold of shield and buckler, and stand up for my help.
Taisawm hoi bahling lat nateh, kai kabawp hanelah kangdout haw.
3 Draw out also the spear, and stop the way against them that persecute me: say to my soul, I am your salvation.
Tahroe hai patuem nateh, na kapâleinaw hah ngang haw. Ka hringnae koe vah na kaie rungngangnae doeh tie dei haw.
4 Let them be confounded and put to shame that seek after my soul: let them be turned back and brought to confusion that devise my hurt.
Ka hringnae la hanelah, kakâcainaw hah kayayeirai hoi awm sak nateh, runae poe hanlah kakâcainaw hah yawng sak nateh, lungpout hoi awm sak haw.
5 Let them be as chaff before the wind: and let the angel of the LORD chase them.
Kahlî ni vaikong palek e patetlah awm awh naseh. BAWIPA e kalvantami ni koung kahmat lah pâlei naseh.
6 Let their way be dark and slippery: and let the angel of the LORD persecute them.
Ahnimouh ni a dawn awh e lamthung teh, kahmot e, ka pâhnan e lam lah awm naseh. Hawvah, BAWIPA e kalvantaminaw ni pâlei naseh.
7 For without cause have they hid for me their net in a pit, which without cause they have dig for my soul.
Bangkongtetpawiteh, a khuekhaw awm laipalah, ka kâman nahanelah arulahoi tamlawk a yap awh toe. A khuekhaw awm laipalah, ka bo nahane tangkom a tai awh.
8 Let destruction come on him at unawares; and let his net that he has hid catch himself: into that very destruction let him fall.
Pouk laipalah ahnimouh teh rawk awh naseh. Arulahoi tamlawk a yap awh e dawk amamouh kâman awh naseh. Amamae tangkom dawk amamouh bawt awh naseh.
9 And my soul shall be joyful in the LORD: it shall rejoice in his salvation.
Ka hringnae heh BAWIPA dawk a lunghawi vaiteh, a rungngangnae dawk a konawm han.
10 All my bones shall say, LORD, who is like to you, which deliver the poor from him that is too strong for him, yes, the poor and the needy from him that spoils him?
Ka hru pueng ni, BAWIPA nang patetlah apimaw kaawm. Ahnimouh hlak a tha kaawmnaw thung hoi mathoenaw hah na rasa. Bokheiyah, mathoe hoi ka voutthoup e hah, ahnimouh karaphoekung thung hoi na rungngang toe, ati awh han.
11 False witnesses did rise up; they laid to my charge things that I knew not.
Kapanuekkhai kaphawk a tho awh teh, ka panue hoeh e naw hah na pacei awh.
12 They rewarded me evil for good to the spoiling of my soul.
Ka muitha lungmathoe sak nahanelah, hawinae hah thoenae hoi a patho awh.
13 But as for me, when they were sick, my clothing was sackcloth: I humbled my soul with fasting; and my prayer returned into my own bosom.
Hatei, kai niteh, a pataw awh navah, buri ka kâkhu, rawcahai hoi kârahnoum hoi ka o. Hahoi, ka ratoumnae teh ka lungthin koe letlang a ban.
14 I behaved myself as though he had been my friend or brother: I bowed down heavily, as one that mourns for his mother.
Hui hoi hmaunawngha ka khui e patetlah, manu hoi ka khui e patetlah ka kâhlai teh ka tabut.
15 But in my adversity they rejoiced, and gathered themselves together: yes, the attackers gathered themselves together against me, and I knew it not; they did tear me, and ceased not:
Hatei, ahnimouh niteh, ka kangduenae a mathoe toteh, konawm laihoi a kamkhueng awh. Na ka tarannaw teh cungtalah a kamkhueng awh teh, hot hah ka panuek hoeh. Kâhat laipalah, koung na phi awh.
16 With hypocritical mockers in feasts, they gnashed on me with their teeth.
Cathutlaipa e naw ni, pawibu vennae koe na panuikhai awh teh, a hâkam na kata sin awh.
17 Lord, how long will you look on? rescue my soul from their destructions, my darling from the lions.
BAWIPA nâtotouh maw sut na khet han. Raphoe hanlah kâcainae thung hoi na rungngang haw. Sendek koehoi ka hringnae hah hlout sak haw.
18 I will give you thanks in the great congregation: I will praise you among much people.
Ka lentoe e kamkhuengnae koe, konawmnae lawk hah ka dei vaiteh, tami moikapap hmalah ka pholen han.
19 Let not them that are my enemies wrongfully rejoice over me: neither let them wink with the eye that hate me without a cause.
Laithoehrawnghrang lahoi ka tarannaw ni kai dawk a konawm hanh naseh. A khuekhaw awm laipalah, na kahmuhmanaw ni, na hmaiet hanh naseh.
20 For they speak not peace: but they devise deceitful matters against them that are quiet in the land.
Bangtelah tetpawiteh, roumnae lawk hah dei awh hoeh niteh, hete ram taminaw duem ao awh lahunnah, dumnae lawk dueng doeh a dei awh.
21 Yes, they opened their mouth wide against me, and said, Aha, aha, our eye has seen it.
A pahni na ang sin awh teh, vehveh, ka mit hoi ka hmu toe ati awh.
22 This you have seen, O LORD: keep not silence: O Lord, be not far from me.
Oe BAWIPA, het heh na hmu doeh. Duem awm hanh. Oe BAWIPA, na hlat takhai hanh.
23 Stir up yourself, and awake to my judgment, even to my cause, my God and my Lord.
Ka Cathut hoi ka BAWIPA, kai dawk ka phat e lawkceng hane kabawp hanelah, kâhlaw nateh, thaw haw.
24 Judge me, O LORD my God, according to your righteousness; and let them not rejoice over me.
Oe BAWIPA, ka Cathut, na lannae lahoi lawk na ceng pouh haw. Kai dawk a konawm awh nahanh seh.
25 Let them not say in their hearts, Ah, so would we have it: let them not say, We have swallowed him up.
Ahnimouh ni a lung thung hoi maimae lungngai akuep han toe, koung payawp awh han toe tet awh hanh naseh.
26 Let them be ashamed and brought to confusion together that rejoice at my hurt: let them be clothed with shame and dishonor that magnify themselves against me.
Ka rucatnae dawk a lungkahawi e naw hah, kayak awh naseh. Kai lathueng kâoupnaw hah kayayeirai hoi awm awh naseh.
27 Let them shout for joy, and be glad, that favor my righteous cause: yes, let them say continually, Let the LORD be magnified, which has pleasure in the prosperity of his servant.
Ka lannae dawk kanawmkhaikung teh, lunghawi hoi la sak naseh. A san dawk a lung ka hawi e BAWIPA teh, pholen lah awm seh telah pou dei awh naseh.
28 And my tongue shall speak of your righteousness and of your praise all the day long.
Hahoi, ka lai ni na lannae lawk a dei vaiteh, kanîruirui nang na pholen han.
