Psalms 11

1 TO THE OVERSEER. BY DAVID. In YHWH I trusted, how do you say to my soul, “They moved to your mountain [as] the bird?”

Kathutkung: Devit BAWIPA dawk ka kâuep. Bangkongtetpawiteh, ka hringnae koevah, na monsom vah tavaca patetlah kamleng telah na dei thai.

2 For behold, the wicked bend a bow, They have prepared their arrow on the string, To shoot in darkness at the upright in heart.

Bangtelah tetpawiteh, na khenhaw! Tamikathoutnaw ni licung a sawn awh teh, lungthin kalannaw arulahoi ka hanelah, lirui dawk pala coungkacoe a mawp awh toe.

3 When the foundations are destroyed, The righteous—what has he done?

Adunaw hah raphoe lah awm pawiteh, tamikalan ni bangmouh a sak thai han.

4 YHWH [is] in His holy temple: YHWH—His throne [is] in the heavens. His eyes see—His eyelids try the sons of men.

BAWIPA teh kathounge Bawkim dawk ao teh, BAWIPA bawitungkhung teh kalvan vah ao. A mit hoi a khet teh, tami capanaw teh a mitlakhuem hoi a tanouk.

5 YHWH tries the righteous. And the wicked and the lover of violence, His soul has hated,

BAWIPA ni tamikalan hah ouk a tanouk. Hatei, tamikathout hoi thama lah kalawmnaw teh, a hringnae hoi a hmuhma.

6 He pours on the wicked snares, fire, and brimstone, And a horrible wind [is] the portion of their cup.

Tamikathoutnaw koe hmaisaan hmaito a rak sak vaiteh, hmai hoi gan hoi hmaikahlî teh a coe awh hane manang lah ao han.

7 For YHWH [is] righteous, He has loved righteousness, His countenance sees the upright!

Bangkongtetpawiteh, BAWIPA teh a lan. Lannae hah lung a pataw teh, tamikalan teh a khet.
