< Psalms 132 >
1 A SONG OF THE ASCENTS. Remember, YHWH, for David, all his afflictions;
Kasang laa. Aw Angraeng, David hoi anih patangkhanghaih to panoek ah;
2 Who has sworn to YHWH, He has vowed to the Mighty One of Jacob:
Angraeng hanah ahmuen ka hnu ai moe, thacak Jakob ih Sithaw hanah ahmuen ka hak ai khoek to, ka mik hae ka iipsak mak ai, ka mikhin doeh ka ngamsak mak ai, tangtang ni kaimah ih kahni imthung ah ka kun mak ai ueloe, ka iihhaih ahmuen ah doeh ka caeh mak ai, tiah anih mah Angraeng khaeah lokkamhaih to sak moe, thacak Jakob Sithaw khaeah lokkamhaih to a sak.
3 “If I enter into the tent of my house, If I go up on the couch of my bed,
4 If I give sleep to my eyes, To my eyelids—slumber,
5 Until I find a place for YHWH, dwelling places for the Mighty One of Jacob.”
6 Behold, we have heard it in Ephratah, We have found it in the fields of the forest.
Khenah, to kahni im loe Ephratah ah oh, tiah a thaih o moe, kathah thing thungah a hnuk o boeh.
7 We come into His dwelling places, We bow ourselves at His footstool.
Angmah ih kahni imthung ah caeh o si loe, a khokkung ah anih to bok o si.
8 Arise, O YHWH, to Your rest, You, and the Ark of Your strength,
Aw Angraeng, nangmah hoi na thacakhaih thingkhong hoi nawnto, angthawk ah loe, nang hakhaih ahmuen ah, angzo ah.
9 Your priests put on righteousness, And Your pious ones cry aloud.
Na qaimanawk loe toenghaih hoiah amthoep o nasoe loe, nangmah ih kaciim kaminawk mah anghoehaih laa to sah o nasoe.
10 For the sake of Your servant David, Do not turn back the face of Your anointed.
Na tamna David pongah, situi na bawh ih kami to pahnawt hmah.
11 YHWH has sworn truth to David, He does not turn back from it: “Of the fruit of your body, I set on the throne for you.
Angraeng loe David khaeah loktang lokkamhaih to sak; lokkamhaih to hnuk amlaem taak mak ai; na takpum ih thingthai ah kaom kami to na angraeng tangkhang nuiah kang hnutsak han.
12 If your sons keep My covenant, And My testimonies that I teach them, Their sons also forever and ever Sit on the throne for you.”
Na caanawk mah ka lokkamhaih hoi nihcae hanah ka patuk ih ka loknawk to pazui o nahaeloe, nihcae ih caanawk doeh na angraeng tangkhang nuiah dungzan khoek to anghnu o toeng tih.
13 For YHWH has fixed on Zion, He has desired [it] for a seat to Himself,
Angraeng mah Zion to qoih boeh; anih loe to ah ohhaih ahmuen sak hanah koehhaih tawnh.
14 “This [is] My rest forever and ever, Here I sit, for I have desired it.
Hae loe dungzan ah kang hakhaih ahmuen ah oh; ka koeh pongah, hae ah ka oh han.
15 I greatly bless her provision, I satisfy her poor [with] bread,
Anih to pop parai caaknaek hoiah tahamhoihaih ka paek moe, amtang angmah ih kaminawk to zok kam hahsak han.
16 And I clothe her priests [with] salvation, And her pious ones sing aloud.
Angmah ih qaimanawk doeh pahlonghaih hoiah ka khuk han, kaciim angmah ih kaminawk loe anghoehaih laa to sah o tih.
17 There I cause a horn to spring up for David, I have arranged a lamp for My Anointed.
To ah David to taki ka cawnhsak moe, situi ka bawh ih kami hanah hmaithaw to ka sak pae boeh.
18 I clothe His enemies [with] shame, And His crown flourishes on Him!”
Anih ih misanawk to azathaih hoiah ka khuk pae han; toe anih lu nui ih sui lumuek loe ampha tih.
