< Psalms 27 >
1 BY DAVID. YHWH [is] my light and my salvation, Whom do I fear? YHWH [is] the strength of my life, Of whom am I afraid?
David kah BOEIPA tah kai kah vangnah neh ka daemnah ni. Unim ka rhih bal eh. BOEIPA tah ka hingnah lunghim ni. Unim ka rhih pueng eh?
2 When evildoers come near to me to eat my flesh, My adversaries and my enemies to me, They have stumbled and fallen.
Thaehuet ka rhal rhoek neh ka thunkha rhoek loh ka saa caak ham ka taengla halo vaengah paloe uh vetih cungku uh ni.
3 Though a host encamps against me, My heart does not fear, Though war rises up against me, In this I [am] confident.
Caem loh ka taengah rhaeh cakhaw ka lungbuei loh rhih mahpawh. Caemtloek loh kai taengah a thoh vaengah he khaw ka pangtung ni.
4 One [thing] I asked of YHWH—it I seek: My dwelling in the house of YHWH, All the days of my life, To look on the pleasantness of YHWH, And to inquire in His temple.
Ka hingnah khohnin boeih he BOEIPA im ah khosak tih BOEIPA kah mueithen te hmuh ham neh a bawkim ah hnukdawn ham pakhat bueng te ka hue tih BOEIPA taengah ka bih.
5 For He hides me in a dwelling place in the day of evil, He hides me in a secret place of His tent, He raises me up on a rock.
Yoethae hnin ah amah kah po ah kai n'khoem ni. A dap kah a huephael ah kai n'thuh vetih lungpang sola kai n'pomsang ni.
6 And now my head is lifted up, Above my enemies—my surrounders, And I sacrifice in His tent sacrifices of shouting, I sing, indeed, I sing praise to YHWH.
Ka kaepvai kah ka thunkha rhoek sola ka lu a pomsang pawn vetih amah kah dap ah hmueih ka nawn ni. Tamlung neh ka hlai vetih BOEIPA te ka tingtoeng ni.
7 Hear, O YHWH, my voice—I call, And favor me, and answer me.
Aw BOEIPA, ka ol han ya lah. Kan khue vaengah n'rhen lamtah n'doo dae.
8 My heart said to You, “They sought my face, Your face, O YHWH, I seek.”
Ka lungbuei loh nang kawng dongah, “Kai maelhmai tlap lah!,” a ti dongah nang maelhmai ni ka tlap eh BOEIPA.
9 Do not hide Your face from me, Do not turn Your servant aside in anger, You have been my help. Do not leave me, nor forsake me, O God of my salvation.
Kai taeng lamkah na hmai thuh boeh. Na sal kah thintoek dongah mangthong boel mai. Kai aka bomkung la na om tih kai nan phap sut pawt dongah ka daemnah Pathen nang loh kai nan hnoo moenih.
10 When my father and my mother Have forsaken me, then YHWH gathers me.
A nu neh a pa long pataeng kai n'hnoo rhoi dae BOEIPA loh kai n'khoem.
11 Show me, O YHWH, Your way, And lead me in a path of uprightness, For the sake of my beholders.
Kai he na longpuei n'thuinuet lamtah ka lungawn rhoek kongah kai he tlangkol caehlong ah m'mawt lah BOEIPA.
12 Do not give me to the will of my adversaries, For false witnesses have risen against me, And they breathe out violence to me.
A hong kah laipai rhoek neh kuthlahnah kah hil loh kai taengah tlai uh dae ka rhal rhoek kah hinglu dongah kai nan tloeng moenih.
13 I had not believed to look on the goodness of YHWH In the land of the living!
Aka hing rhoek kah khohmuen ah BOEIPA kah a thennah te hmuh ham ka tangnah pueng.
14 Look to YHWH—be strong, And He strengthens your heart, Indeed, look to YHWH!
BOEIPA te lamtawn lah. Thaahuel lamtah na lungbuei ning sak. Te dongah BOEIPA te lamtawn lah.
