Psalms 74
1 O God, why have you cast us off for ever? why does your anger smoke against the sheep of your pasture?
Aw Khawsa, kawtih kumqui dyna nani qoek khqi? Ikawtih na qamno a sainaak awhkaw tuukhqik khan awh nak kaw a so aih.
2 Remember your congregation, which you have purchased of old; the rod of your inheritance, which you have redeemed; this mount Zion, wherein you have dwelled.
Ak kqym awhkaw thlang nak thlaihkhqi, namah ing tlan hyk ti, nang a qo ak pang thlangkhqi na awmnaak Zion tlang ce poek cang lah thoeih ti.
3 Lift up your feet to the perpetual desolations; even all that the enemy has done wickedly in the sanctuary.
Vawhkaw kumqui dy ak plawcikhqi, na hun ciim awh na qaalkhqi ing a hawlaw vawhkaw seetnaak boeih benna nak kaw hawi lah.
4 Your enemies roar in the middle of your congregations; they set up their ensigns for signs.
Nang ing kaimih na ning hqumnaak hun awh na qaalkhqi ing khy am kqang unawh; a mimah ang dyih hun simhatnaak ce ling uhy.
5 A man was famous according as he had lifted up axes on the thick trees.
Kqawng thing ak ding khyng ce hqaica ing a hlam sih amyihna awm uhy.
6 But now they break down the carved work thereof at once with axes and hammers.
Kut ing ami suk biit biit ik-oeihkhqi boeih hqaica ing deh pheng uhy.
7 They have cast fire into your sanctuary, they have defiled by casting down the dwelling place of your name to the ground.
Na hun ciim ce dawi unawh tluk sak uhy; Nang ming a awmnaak hun ce tyih awm sak uhy.
8 They said in their hearts, Let us destroy them together: they have burned up all the synagogues of God in the land.
Ak kawk khuiawh, “A cuna nawi hoem u sih!” ti uhy. Qam khui awhkaw Khawsa bawknaak imkhqi boeih ce dawi uhy.
9 We see not our signs: there is no more any prophet: neither is there among us any that knows how long.
Kawpoek kyi hatnaak kaimih a venawh ikawmyih awm am awm hy; tawnghakhqi awm am awm voel hawh nawh, handy nu vemyihna a awm khing kaw tice u ingawm am sim hy.
10 O God, how long shall the adversary reproach? shall the enemy blaspheme your name for ever?
Aw Khawsa, handy awh nu na qaalkhqi ing anik kqawn set kaw? anik qaalnaak ing nang ming ce kqawn seet hly let hawh unawh nu?
11 Why withdraw you your hand, even your right hand? pluck it out of your bosom.
Ikawtih nak tang kut ben ce nak dawh tlaih? Na hibai ak khui awhkawng na kut ce soeng nawhtaw cekkhqi ce him hlah.
12 For God is my King of old, working salvation in the middle of the earth.
Cehlai, Aw Khawsa nang taw ak kqym awhkawng kai a sangpahrang na awm hyk ti; nang ing khawmdek awh hulnaak hawlaw hyk ti.
13 You did divide the sea by your strength: you brake the heads of the dragons in the waters.
Nang ing ni tuicunli ce nak thaawmnaak ing pek a bo nawh, tui khuiawh ak awm qaihkhqui a lukhqi ce kqek pe sak hyk ti.
14 You brake the heads of leviathan in pieces, and gave him to be meat to the people inhabiting the wilderness.
Nang ing ni Leviathan a lukhqi ve vyk pe kqek kqek nawh qamkoh awhkaw qamsa ham buh na be hyk ti.
15 You did split the fountain and the flood: you dried up mighty rivers.
Nang ing ni tui bym ingkaw lawngca tuikhqi phyt sak nawh; lawngnu tuipakhqi awm kak sak qup qup hyk ti.
16 The day is yours, the night also is yours: you have prepared the light and the sun.
Khawkdai ve nang a koena awm nawh, khawmthan awm nang a koe ni; nang ing khawmik ingkaw pihla ce sai hyk ti.
17 You have set all the borders of the earth: you have made summer and winter.
Nang ing ni khawmdek awhkaw a qi a mawngkhqi boeih na syn hy; khawhqai ingkaw chikca awm sai hyk ti.
18 Remember this, that the enemy has reproached, O LORD, and that the foolish people have blasphemed your name.
Aw Bawipa, na qaal ing ikawmyihna ani thenaak tice sim loet lah, thlakqawkhqi ing nang ming ami seet ami bat ce.
19 O deliver not the soul of your turtledove to the multitude of the wicked: forget not the congregation of your poor for ever.
Na kqukkqu a hqingnaak ce qam sak tlungkhqi venawh koeh pe; namah a khawdeng khuikha thlangkhqi a hqingnaak kumqui dyna koeh hilh.
20 Have respect to the covenant: for the dark places of the earth are full of the habitations of cruelty.
Na paipi ce sim lah, kawtih khawboe seetnaak ing qam khui awhkaw thannaak boeih ce sing hawh hy.
21 O let not the oppressed return ashamed: let the poor and needy praise your name.
Ak khuikha thlangkhqi ak kawboet ce sing hawh hy, khawdengkhqi ingkaw ak voethlauhkhqi ing nang ming ce kyihcah lah u seh.
22 Arise, O God, plead your own cause: remember how the foolish man reproaches you daily.
Aw Khawsa, hang dyi nawhtaw na ik-oeih sai ce hul lah; thlakqawkhqi ing a poepa na ani thenaak ce sim loet lah.
23 Forget not the voice of your enemies: the tumult of those that rise up against you increases continually.
Na qaalkhqi a tym awi ce ang ngai ngak kana koeh awm, a boet kana ak khy ak kqang na qaalkhqi ak awi ce.
