Psalms 6

1 “To the chief musician on Neginoth upon Sheminith, a psalm of David.” O Lord, correct me not in thy anger, and chastise me not in thy wrath.

Kathutkung: Devit Oe BAWIPA, lungkhuek laihoi na yue hanh, na lungphuen laihoi na yue hanh.

2 Be gracious unto me, O Lord; for I am withering away; heal me, O Lord; for my bones are terrified.

Oe BAWIPA, na pahren haw. Ka tha a youn. Oe BAWIPA, na dam sak haw. Ka hrunaw teh runae a kâhmo toe.

3 And my soul is greatly terrified; but thou, O Lord, how long yet—?

Ka hringnae hai a ru toe. Oe BAWIPA, nâsittouh maw na ro han.

4 Return, O Lord, deliver my soul: help me for the sake of thy kindness.

Oe BAWIPA, bout ban nateh, na rungngang haw. Oe na lungmanae hoi na rungngang haw.

5 For in death men do not remember thee: in the nether world, who shall give thee thanks? (Sheol h7585)

Bangkongtetpawiteh, duenae koehoi nang pouknae awmhoeh, apinimouh phuen koehoi lunghawinae lawk a dei han. (Sheol h7585)

6 I am weary with my sighing; I flood every night my bed; With my tears I moisten my couch.

Ka cingounae koe ka tâwn. Kho pei ka dai lah ka ikhun dawk ka ka teh, ka mitphi ni lahoung koung a duk sak.

7 My eye is consumed because of grief; it waxeth old because of all my assailants.

Lungmathoenae kecu dawk ka mit koung a ro teh, ka tarannaw kecu dawk a mawm toe.

8 Depart from me, all ye workers of wickedness; for the Lord hath heard the voice of my weeping.

Payonnae kasaknaw pueng, na cettakhai awh leih. Bangkongtetpawiteh, BAWIPA ni ka kanae lawk hai a thai.

9 The Lord hath heard my supplication; the Lord will accept my prayer.

BAWIPA ni ka kâheinae hah a thai toe. BAWIPA ni ka ratoumnae hah a dâw han.

10 Ashamed and greatly terrified shall become all my enemies; they will turn round, and be made ashamed in a moment.

Ka taran pueng kaya laihoi ru awh naseh. Ban awh naseh, vaitalahoi kayak awh naseh.
