Psalms 57
1 “To the chief musician, Al-tashcheth, by David, a Michtham, when he fled from Saul, in the cave.” Be gracious unto me, O God, be gracious unto me; for in thee my soul seeketh protection, and under the shadow of thy wings will I seek protection, until the mischief be passed away.
Aka mawt ham Saul taeng lamloh lungko khuila a yong vaengkah David kah, “Phae Boeh “Laa Pathen aw kai n'rhen dae, kai n'rhen dae. Ka hinglu loh nang dongah ying tih talnah he a poeng hil, na phae hlip ah ka ying ni.
2 I will call unto God, the Most High; unto God that accomplisheth [his kindness] on me.
Kai ham hma aka khap Pathen te Sangkoek Khohni, Pathen la ka khue.
3 He will send from heaven, and save me, though he that longeth to swallow me up utter reproach. (Selah) God will send forth his kindness and his truth.
Vaan lamkah han tueih tih kai n'khang, kai aka hloem khaw a veet. (Selah) Pathen loh a sitlohnah neh a oltak te a tueih.
4 My soul is in the midst of lions; I lie down [in the midst of] those that send out flames, [those] sons of men, whose teeth are spears and arrows, and whose tongue is a sharpened sword.
Ka hinglu he hlang capa boeih aka hlawp, sathuengnu rhoek lakli ah ka yalh. A no khaw caai neh thaltang la om tih a lai te cunghang bangla haat.
5 Be thou exalted above the heavens, O God: above all the earth let thy glory be.
Pathen he vaan rhoek soah pomsang pai saeh. Namah kah thangpomnah loh diklai pum khuk thil saeh.
6 A net have they prepared for my steps; my soul hath been bent down; they have dug before me a pit; they are fallen into the midst thereof. (Selah)
Ka khokan ah lawk a tung uh tih ka hinglu loh duengyai sut. Kai hmai kah a vueh uh rhom khui ah cungku uh. (Selah)
7 Firm is my heart, O God, firm is my heart: I will sing and play.
Ka lungbuei cikngae ngawn Pathen aw. Ka lungbuei cikngae neh ka hlai vetih ka tingtoeng ni.
8 Awake, my spirit; awake, psaltery and harp: I will wake up the morning-dawn.
Ka thangpomnah aw haenghang laeh. Thangpa neh rhotoeng haenghang laeh. Mincang ah haenghang pawn ni.
9 I will thank thee among the people, O Lord: I will sing praises unto thee among the nations.
Ka Boeipa nang te pilnam rhoek taengah kan uem vetih, namtu rhoek taengah kan tingtoeng ni.
10 For great, even unto the heavens, is thy kindness, and even unto the skies [extendeth] thy truth.
Na sitlohnah loh vaan duela, na uepomnah loh khomong khaw a puet.
11 Be thou exalted above the heavens, O God: above all the earth let thy glory be.
Pathen he vaan rhoek boeih soah pomsang pai saeh. Namah kah thangpomnah loh diklai pum khuk thil saeh.
