Psalms 89
1 [A Psalm] of instruction for Aetham the Israelite. I will sing of your mercies, O Lord, for ever: I will declare your truth with my mouth to all generations.
Ezrahite Ethan ih Maskil. Angraeng palungnathaih to dungzan khoek to laa ah ka sak han; na oepthohhaih to kaminawk boih khaeah ka pakha hoi roe ka thuih han.
2 For you have said, Mercy shall be built up for ever: your truth shall be established in the heavens.
Palungnathaih loe dungzan khoek to caak tih; vannawk boih nuiah na oepthohhaih to na caksak tih.
3 I made a covenant with my chosen ones, I sware to David my servant.
Ka qoih ih kami hoiah lokmaihaih to ka sak moe, ka tamna David khaeah lokmaihaih to ka sak boeh,
4 I will establish your seed for ever, and build up your throne to all generations. (Pause)
na tii to dungzan khoek to ka caksak moe, na caanawk ih adung khoek to na angraeng tangkhang to ka caksak han, tiah na thuih. (Selah)
5 The heavens shall declare your wonders, O Lord; and your truth in the assembly of the saints.
Aw Angraeng, na sak ih dawnrai hmuennawk to vannawk mah saphaw o ueloe, na oepthohhaih doeh kaciim kaminawk amkhuenghaih ahmuen ah saphaw o tih.
6 For who in the heavens shall be compared to the Lord? and who shall be likened to the Lord among the sons of God?
Van ah Angraeng hoi patah han koi mi maw kaom? Thacak kami ih capanawk thungah Angraeng baktiah mi maw kaom?
7 God is glorified in the council of the saints; great and terrible toward all that are round about him.
Kaciim kaminawk amkhuenghaih ahmuen ah loe Angraeng to paroeai zit o; anih loe ataeng ah kaom kaminawk pongah khingya paek han koi ah oh.
8 O Lord God of hosts, who is like to you? you are mighty, O Lord, and your truth is round about you.
Aw misatuh kaminawk ih Angraeng Sithaw, nang baktih thacak Angraeng mi maw om tih? Na oepthohhaih mah nang to ang takui.
9 You rule the power of the sea; and you calm the tumult of its waves.
Nang mah tuipui to na uk; tuiphu angthawk tahang naah, tuiphu to na dipsak.
10 You has brought down the proud as one that is slain; and with the arm of your power you has scattered your enemies.
Hum ih kami baktiah, Rahab to na taprawt pet pet moe, na ban thacakhaih hoiah na misanawk to na vah phaeng.
11 The heavens are your, and the earth is your: you have founded the world, and the fullness of it.
Vannawk loe nang ih hmuen ah oh o, long doeh nang ih ni; long hoi athung ah kaom hmuennawk boih loe, nang mah ni na sak.
12 You have created the north and the west: Thabor and Hermon shall rejoice in your name.
Aluek hoi aloih to na sak; Tarbo hoi Hermon loe na hmin rang hoiah anghoe tih.
13 Your is the mighty arm: let your hand be strengthened, let your right hand be exalted.
Na ban loe thacakhaih hoiah koi; na ban loe thacak moe, na bantang ban loe sang.
14 Justice and judgment are the establishment of your throne: mercy and truth shall go before your face.
Katoengah lokcaekhaih hoi toenghaih loe na angraeng tangkhang ohhaih ahmuen ah oh; tahmenhaih hoi loktang loe na hmaa ah caeh tih.
15 Blessed is the people that knows the joyful sound: they shall walk, O Lord, in the light of your countenance.
Anghoehaih lok panoek kaminawk loe tahamhoih! Aw Angraeng, nihcae loe na hmaa ah aanghaih hoiah caeh o.
16 And in your name shall they rejoice all the day: and in your righteousness shall they be exalted.
Nihcae loe na hmin rang hoiah ni thokkruek anghoe o; na toenghaih rang hoiah ni nihcae mah pakoeh o.
17 For you are the boast of their strength; and in your good pleasure shall our horn be exalted,
Nang loe nihcae lensawkhaih hoi thacakhaih ah na oh; nang tahmenhaih rang hoiah ni kaicae ih taki loe pakoeh ah oh.
18 for [our] help is of the Lord; and of the Holy One of Israel, our king.
Kaicae abuephaih loe Angraeng ih ni; Ciimcai Israelnawk ih kami loe kaicae ih siangpahrang ah oh.
19 Then you spoke in vision to your children, and said, I have laid help on a mighty one; I have exalted one chosen out of my people.
Hnuksakhaih hoiah nangmah ih kaciim kami khaeah lok na thuih; thacak kami abomh hanah kang paek boeh; kaminawk thung hoi qoih ih kami maeto ka sangsak boeh.
20 I have found David my servant; I have anointed him by [my] holy mercy.
Ka tamna David to ka hnuk boeh; anih loe kaciim kaimah ih situi hoiah ka bawh boeh,
21 For my hand shall support him; and mine arm shall strengthen him.
anih nuiah ka ban thacak tih; ka ban tampawk hoiah anih tha ka caksak han.
22 The enemy shall have no advantage against him; and the son of transgression shall not hurt him again.
Misa mah anih ih hmuen to lomh pae mak ai; kasae kami ih ca mah doeh anih to pacaekthlaek mak ai.
23 And I will hew down his foes before him, and put to flight those that hate him.
Anih hmaa ah a misanawk to ka boh pae moe, anih hnuma kaminawk to raihaih ka paek han.
24 But my truth and my mercy shall be with him; and in my name shall his horn be exalted.
Ka oepthohhaih hoi ka palungnathaih anih khaeah om ueloe, ka hmin rang hoiah anih ih taki to pakoeh tih.
25 And I will set his hand in the sea, and his right hand in the rivers.
Anih ih ban loe tuipui nuiah ka suek pae moe, a bantang ban to vapuinawk nuiah ka koeng pae han.
26 He shall call upon me, [saying], You are my Father, my God, and the helper of my salvation.
Anih mah, Nang loe kam pa, ka Sithaw, ka pahlonghaih lungsong, tiah na kawk tih.
27 And I will make him [my] firstborn, higher than the kings of the earth.
Anih to long siangpahrangnawk pongah sang kue, anih to ka calu ah ka suek han.
28 I will keep my mercy for him for ever, and my covenant [shall be] firm with him.
Anih hanah ka palungnathaih dungzan khoek to ka suek han; ka lokmaihaih loe a nuiah cak poe tih.
29 And I will establish his seed for ever and ever, and his throne as the days of heaven.
Anih ih atii to dungzan khoek to ka caksak moe, van oh nathung anih anghnuthaih angraeng tangkhang to ka caksak poe han.
30 If his children should forsake my law, and walk not in my judgments;
A caanawk mah ka paek ih kaalok caeh o taak moe, ka lokcaekhaih baktiah caeh o ai ah,
31 if they should profane my ordinances, and not keep my commandments;
ka thuih ih loknawk to aek o moe, ka paek ih loknawk to pazui o ai nahaeloe,
32 I will visit their transgressions with a rod, and their sins with scourges.
a sakpazaehaihnawk pongah thingboeng hoiah ka thuitaek moe, a sakpazae o haih baktih toengah dan ka paek han.
33 But my mercy I will not utterly remove from him, nor wrong my truth.
Toe kai ih tahmen amlunghaih to anih khae hoiah ka la pae ving mak ai, ka oepthohhaih doeh kam rosak mak ai.
34 Neither will I by any means profane my covenant; and I will not make void the things that proceed out of my lips.
Ka sak ih lokmaihaih to kam rosak mak ai, pakha hoi ka thuih ih lok doeh kam khraisak mak ai.
35 Once have I sworn by my holiness, that I will not lie to David.
David khaeah lok kam lai mak ai, tiah ka ciimhaih hoi vaito ka khawt ah lok ka kam boeh.
36 His see shall endure for ever, and his throne as the sun before me;
Anih ih atii loe cak poe ueloe, anih ih angraeng tangkhang loe ka hmaa ih ni baktiah om tih.
37 and as the moon [that is] established for ever, and as the faithful witness in heaven. (Pause)
Khrah baktiah cak poe ueloe, van ih oepthok hnukung baktiah om tih. (Selah)
38 But you have cast off and set at nothing, you has rejected your anointed.
Toe nang mah nang pahnawt sut boeh moe, nang panuet boeh, situi na bawh ih kami nuiah palung na phui boeh.
39 You have overthrown the covenant of your servant; you has profaned his sanctuary, [casting it] to the ground.
Na tamna hoiah sak ih lokmaihaih to na pahnawt sut boeh moe, anih ih angraeng lumuek to panuet kaom long ah na vah pae ving boeh.
40 You have broken down all his hedges; you have made his strong holds a terror.
Anih ih sipaenawk to na phraek pae boih boeh; anih ih kacak sipaenawk doeh nam rosak boeh.
41 All that go by the way have spoiled him: he is become a reproach to his neighbors.
Loklam ah caeh kaminawk mah anih to lomh o; anih loe ataeng ah kaom kaminawk kasaethuih han koi ah oh.
42 You have exalted the right hand of his enemies; you have made all his enemies to rejoice.
A misanawk ih bantang ban to na toengh pae tahang; a misanawk boih to nang hoesak boeh.
43 You have turned back the help of his sword, and have not helped him in the battle.
Anih ih sumsen haa to na paqoi pae ving boeh; anih misatuk naah nang doe haih ai boeh.
44 You have deprived him of glory: you have broken down his throne to the ground.
A lensawkhaih to na boengsak moe, anih ih angraeng tangkhang to long ah na vah pae ving boeh.
45 You have shortened the days of his throne: you have poured shame upon him. (Pause)
A qoeng li naah aninawk to na duemsak; azathaih hoiah anih to na khuk khoep boeh. (Selah)
46 How long, O Lord, will you turn away, for ever? shall your anger flame out as fire?
Nasetto maw? Aw Angraeng, nang hawk poe han boeh maw? Palung na phuihaih hmai baktiah kangh tih maw?
47 Remember what my being is: for have you created all the sons of men in vain?
Ka hinghaih loe nasetto maw duemh, tito panoek ah; na sak ih kaminawk loe azom pui ah ni oh o.
48 What man is there who shall live, and not see death? shall [any one] deliver his soul from the hand of Hades? (Pause) (Sheol h7585)
Kawbaktih kami maw duekhaih tongh ai ah hing thaih? Anih loe taprong thacakhaih thung hoiah a hinghaih pahlong thai tih maw? (Selah) (Sheol h7585)
49 Where are your ancient mercies, O Lord, which you sware to David in your truth?
Aw Angraeng, loktang lok hoiah na tamna David khaeah na sak ih lokmaihaih hoi canghnii ih na tahmenhaih to naah maw oh ving boeh?
50 Remember, O Lord, the reproach of your servants, which I have borne in my bosom, [even the reproach] of many nations;
Angraeng, na tamnanawk pahnuithuihhaih to pakuem poe ah; thacak kaminawk boih mah kasaethuihaih to palung thung hoi kawbang maw ka pauep, tito panoek ah,
51 wherewith your enemies have reviled, O Lord: wherewith they have reviled the recompense of your anointed.
Aw Angraeng, na misanawk mah kasae a thuih o; nihcae loe nangmah na caksak kami ih khok tangkannawk to pahnui o thuih boeh.
52 Blessed be the Lord for ever. So be it, so be it.
Angraeng khaeah tahamhoihaih dungzan khoek to om nasoe! Amen hoi Amen.
