< Psalms 28 >
1 Unto thee will I cry, O Yhwh my rock; be not silent to me: lest, if thou be silent to me, I become like them that go down into the pit.
Aw Bawipa ka lungnu, namah ni ka nik khy; am hlat kaana koeh ni awm taak. Nang ing am na ning ngainaak awhtaw lawk-kqawng khuiawh ak tlakhqi amyihna ni ka awm hly.
2 Hear the voice of my supplications, when I cry unto thee, when I lift up my hands toward thy holy oracle.
Nam qeennaak huh aham ni doet nyng, na hun caih soeih benna ka kut qawi ka soeng law awh qeennaak thoeh doena kak khynaak awi ve ngai law lah.
3 Draw me not away with the wicked, and with the workers of iniquity, which speak peace to their neighbours, but mischief is in their hearts.
Thlak chekhqi, ik-oeih amak leek ak sai thlangkhqi mi koeh nik dawh sih qen, cekkhqi ing a pilnamkhqi venawh zeelnaak awi taw kqawn kaa lawt hlai uhy, ak kawlung khui awhtaw ak che khqoet ni a awm.
4 Give them according to their deeds, and according to the wickedness of their endeavours: give them after the work of their hands; render to them their desert.
Ak che ik-oeih ami sainaak amyihna thung pek khqi tloep lawt lah; a mimah ing ak tyng na amah a kut sainaak ce thung pe lah.
5 Because they regard not the works of Yhwh, nor the operation of his hands, he shall destroy them, and not build them up.
Bawipa a bibinaakkhqi ingkaw a kut saikhqi ce kaw na awm a maming ngaih dawngawh, cekkhqi ce khqai poet poet kawmsaw ityk awh awm am thawh khqi voel tikaw.
6 Blessed be Yhwh, because he hath heard the voice of my supplications.
Qeennaak ka thoehnaak khqi ve a ning zaak peek a dawngawh, Bawipa venawh zoeksangnaak awm seh nyng.
7 Yhwh is my strength and my shield; my heart trusted in him, and I am helped: therefore my heart greatly rejoiceth; and with my song will I praise him.
Bawipa taw kak thaawmnaak ingkaw ka phuhqa na awm hy; kak kawlung ing amah ce ka ypnaak a dawngawh ni bawm hy. Kak kaw zeel soeih nawh amah venawh zeelnaak awi kqawn doena laa sa vang.
8 Yhwh is their strength, and he is the saving strength of his anointed.
Bawipa taw ak thlangkhqi ham thaawmnaak na awm nawh, amah ing a caksak thlangkhqi ham hulnaak vawngcak na awm hy.
9 Save thy people, and bless thine inheritance: feed them also, and lift them up for ever.
Nak thlangkhqi ce hul nawhtaw na qo ak pangkhqi ce zosennaak pe lah; a mingmih a tuudoenkung na awm nawh kumqui dyna khai khqi loet lah.
