< Psalms 80 >
1 Give ear, O Shepherd of Israel, you that lead Joseph like a flock; you that dwell between the cherubim, shine forth.
Katoeng kruek zaehoikung hanah. Shoshanim-Eduth ah sak koi Asaph ih Saam laa. Tuu baktiah Joseph zaehoikung, Aw Israel tuu toepkung, tahngai ah; Cherubim salakah anghnu nang, aanghaih to amtuengsak ah.
2 Before Ephraim and Benjamin and Manasseh stir up your strength, and come and save us.
Ephraim, Benjamin hoi Manasseh hmaa ah, na thaa pathok ah, angzo ah loe, kaicae hae pahlong ah.
3 Turn us again, O God, and cause your face to shine; and we shall be saved.
Aw Sithaw, kaicae hae angthasak let ah loe, na mikhmai to aangsak ah; to tiah nahaeloe pahlong ah ka om o tih.
4 O LORD God of hosts, how long will you be angry against the prayer of your people?
Aw misatuh kaminawk ih Angraeng Sithaw, nangmah ih kaminawk lawkthuihaih nuiah nasetto maw palung na phui thuih han vop?
5 You feed them with the bread of tears; and give them tears to drink in great measure.
Nihcae to mikkhraetui takaw hoiah na pacah moe, boengloeng kakoi ah mikkhraetui naek hanah nihcae to na paek boeh.
6 You make us a strife to our neighbors: and our enemies laugh among themselves.
Ka imtaeng kaminawk mah palungphui thuih hanah nang sak, ka misanawk mah kaicae ang pahnuih o thuih boeh.
7 Turn us again, O God of hosts, and cause your face to shine; and we shall be saved.
Aw misatuh kaminawk ih Sithaw, kaicae hae angthasak let ah loe, na mikhmai to aangsak ah; to tih nahaeloe pahlong ah ka om o tih.
8 You have brought a vine out of Egypt: you have cast out the heathen, and planted it.
Misurkung to Izip prae hoiah nang sinh; Sithaw panoek ai kaminawk to na haek bit pacoengah, na thlingh.
9 You prepared room before it, and did cause it to take deep root, and it filled the land.
Thlingh hanah long to na takaeh, tangzun na saksak moe, prae thungah na koisak.
10 The hills were covered with the shadow of it, and the boughs thereof were like the goodly cedars.
Anih ih tahlip mah maenawk to khuk moe, anih ih tanghangnawk mah thacak Sidar thingnawk to khuk.
11 She sent out her boughs to the sea, and her branches to the river.
Anih ih tanghang loe tuipui khoek to phak, tadoknawk doeh vapui khoek to phak.
12 Why have you then broken down her hedges, so that all they which pass by the way do pluck her?
Tipongah loklam ah kacaeh kaminawk boih mah misurthaih pakhrik o hanah, takha to na phraek ving loe?
13 The boar out of the wood does waste it, and the wild beast of the field does devour it.
Pangaeh mah akung to amuui moe, taw ih moisannawk mah caak o boeh.
14 Return, we beseech you, O God of hosts: look down from heaven, and behold, and visit this vine;
Aw misatuh kaminawk ih Sithaw, angqoi let hanah, kang pacae o; van hoiah dan tathuk ah, hae misurkung hae khet hanah angzo ah;
15 And the vineyard which your right hand has planted, and the branch that you made strong for yourself.
na bantang ban hoiah akung to na thlingh, nangmah hanah tanghang to tha na caksak.
16 It is burned with fire, it is cut down: they perish at the rebuke of your countenance.
Akung loe hmai hoiah thlaek moe, pakhruk ving boeh; na mikhmai hoi thuitaek ih kaminawk loe amro o boih boeh.
17 Let your hand be on the man of your right hand, on the son of man whom you made strong for yourself.
Na bantang bang ih kami hoi nangmah han tha na caksak ih kami capa nuiah na ban to koeng nasoe.
18 So will not we go back from you: quicken us, and we will call on your name.
To tiah nahaeloe nang to kang qoi o taak mak ai; na hmin kang kawk o hanah, kaicae hae pathawk ah.
19 Turn us again, O LORD God of hosts, cause your face to shine; and we shall be saved.
Aw misatuh kaminawk ih Sithaw, kaicae hae angthasak let ah loe, na mikhmai to aangsak ah; to tiah nahaeloe pahlong ah ka om o tih.
