Psalms 10
1 WHY standest thou afar off, O Lord? why hidest thou thyself in times of trouble?
Aw BOEIPA, balae tih mueirhih tue vaengah a hla la na thuh tih na pai?
2 The wicked in his pride doth persecute the poor: let them be taken in the devices that they have imagined.
Halang kah a hoemnahloh mangdaeng te a hlak dae tangkhuepnah neh a moeh rhoek long te amamih lat a tuuk.
3 For the wicked boasteth of his heart’s desire, and blesseth the covetous, whom the Lord abhorreth.
Halang tah a hinglu kah hoehhamnah dongah yan uh tih, aka mueluem loh BOEIPA yah aka bai te a uem.
4 The wicked, through the pride of his countenance, will not seek after God: God is not in all his thoughts.
Halang tah oeknah neh a thintoek a khueh. Pathen te toem pawt tih, a thuepnah boeih dongah om pawh.
5 His ways are always grievous; thy judgments are far above out of his sight: as for all his enemies, he puffeth at them.
A longpuei a longpuei te a tue boeih ah kilkul. Na laitloeknah te anih hmai lamloh a sang pah. Anih aka daengdaeh boeih khaw amamih te lat a sat.
6 He hath said in his heart, I shall not be moved: for I shall never be in adversity.
A lungbuei ah, “Thawnpuei lamkah thawnpuei due ka tuen pawt vetih ka yoethae mahpawh,” a ti.
7 His mouth is full of cursing and deceit and fraud: under his tongue is mischief and vanity.
A ka dongah olthae olkha, hlangthai palat ya neh hnaephnapnah bae tih a lai dongah thakthaenah neh boethae ni aka om.
8 He sitteth in the lurking places of the villages: in the secret places doth he murder the innocent: his eyes are privily set against the poor.
Vong kaep kah rhong ah ngol tih, a huephael ah ommongsitoe a ngawn. A mik neh mangdaeng mangtok te a mae uh.
9 He lieth in wait secretly as a lion in his den: he lieth in wait to catch the poor: he doth catch the poor, when he draweth him into his net.
Mangdaeng te tuuk ham a huephael kah po khuiah sathueng bangla rhongngol. Mangdaeng te a tuuk vaengah amah kah lawk neh a sol.
10 He croucheth, and humbleth himself, that the poor may fall by his strong ones.
Te dongah paep la paep tih a ngawm phoeiah tah tatthai khaw a pilnu hmuiah ni mangdaeng mangtok la a cungku.
11 He hath said in his heart, God hath forgotten: he hideth his face; he will never see it.
A lungbuei ah, “Pathen loh a hnilh coeng, a maelhmai a thuh tih yoeyah la hmu mahpawh,” a ti.
12 Arise, O Lord; O God, lift up thine hand: forget not the humble.
Aw BOEIPA Pathen thoo lah, na kut thueng lah. Mangdaeng kodo te nang loh hnilh boeh.
13 Wherefore doth the wicked contemn God? he hath said in his heart, Thou wilt not require it.
Balae tih halang loh Pathen yah a bai te amah lungbuei ah, “Nan cae tang mahpawh,” a ti?
14 Thou hast seen it; for thou beholdest mischief and spite, to requite it with thy hand: the poor committeth himself unto thee; thou art the helper of the fatherless.
Tedae, na hmuh coeng dongah, thakthaenah neh konoinah, na kut dongah khueh ham na paelki. Namah tah cadah aka bom la na om dongah, na taengah mangdaeng mangtok khaw a hal.
15 Break thou the arm of the wicked and the evil man: seek out his wickedness till thou find none.
Boethae halang kah a ban te khaem pah. A halangnah te cae pah lamtah hlun boeh.
16 The Lord is King for ever and ever: the heathen are perished out of his land.
BOEIPA tah kumhal ah manghai yoeyah tih, a khohmuen kah namtom rhoek tah milh uh ni.
17 Lord, thou hast heard the desire of the humble: thou wilt prepare their heart, thou wilt cause thine ear to hear:
Kodo rhoek kah ngaihlihnah te BOEIPA nang loh na hna neh na hnatung tih, na yaak dongah, a lungbuei na cikngae sak.
18 To judge the fatherless and the oppressed, that the man of the earth may no more oppress.
Cadah neh hlanghnaep pahnap ham laitloek pah. Diklai lamkah hlanghing taengah, a sarhing ham te koep khoep boel saeh.
