Psalms 38
1 A PSALM OF DAVID. “TO CAUSE TO REMEMBER.” YHWH, do not reprove me in Your wrath, Nor discipline me in Your fury.
O Yahweh Pakai lung phatmo nan neilethuh hih in, nalunghan jeh in jong neijep hih in!
2 For Your arrows have come down on me, And You let down Your hand on me.
Nathal changho kasunga akikam dentan, nakhuttum in neivo lhutan ahi.
3 Soundness is not in my flesh, Because of Your indignation, Peace is not in my bones, Because of my sin.
Neilunghan khum jeh in katahsa pumpi hi anan, kachonset naho jeh in katahsa achip soh tai.
4 For my iniquities have passed over my head, As a heavy burden—too heavy for me.
Kathepmo nan eilon khum in, agihdan poh jouhoi ahitapoi.
5 Stunk—my wounds have become corrupt, Because of my folly.
Ngolhoi tah a kana chonset jehin, kamaha anasetan auidoh leotai.
6 I have been bent down, I have been bowed down—to excess, I have gone mourning all the day.
Kathoh gimna hin ei kong konsah tai, lung gim tah in nilhum kei in kavah len ahi.
7 For my flanks have been full of drought, And soundness is not in my flesh.
Khosih pi kasunga meikong bangin a allin, eidammo sahtai.
8 I have been feeble and struck—to excess, I have roared from disquietude of heart.
Keima kalhasam in kapum in kagoi lhatai. Kalungthim natna a kon in kapeng pengin ahi.
9 Lord, all my desire [is] before You, And my sighing has not been hid from You.
Yahweh Pakai nangin ipi kangai chat ham nahei, nangin ka khoisatna jouse najai.
10 My heart [is] panting, my power has forsaken me, And the light of my eyes, Even they are not with me.
Kahaina hu alhasam tan katha beitai, chule kamit in jong kho amu tapoi.
11 My lovers and my friends stand aloof from before my plague. And my neighbors have stood far off.
Kangailut chengle kagol kapaiten kahivei hi akichaovin eidalha taove. Ka insung mite jengjong achomin aumtaovin ahi.
12 And those seeking my soul lay a snare, And those seeking my evil Have spoken mischievous things, And they meditate [on] deceits all the day.
Hiche jeng a jong chun kagalmi ten kathi nading thang akam nalai uve. Kaman thahna ding toh gon anei un, nilhum keijin kathi nading agong taovin ahi.
13 And I, as deaf, do not hear. And as a mute one who does not open his mouth.
Hinlah ken eikigih naho jouse chu kakijah mosah in, chuleh amasang uvah apaomo bangin thipbeh in kaumtai.
14 Indeed, I am as a man who does not hear, And in his mouth are no reproofs.
Imacha jahlouding kanom in chuleh donbutna jong donbutlou ding kanom e.
15 Because for You, O YHWH, I have waited, You answer, O Lord my God.
Ajeh chu O Yahweh Pakai nangma ngah jinga um a kahi. Nangin kataona neidonbut tei ding ahi O Yahweh Pakai Elohim ka Pathen.
16 When I said, “Lest they rejoice over me, In the slipping of my foot they magnified themselves against me.”
Keima katao in, “kadougalte noise tah in eivetsah dan, kalhuhna a jong kitaisah dan.”
17 For I am ready to halt, And my pain [is] continually before me.
Keima tanglouva kathohgim na-ah akichaipai ding kahitai.
18 For I declare my iniquity, I am sorry for my sin.
Hinlah kachonset naho kaphong-doh in, ka nachonna ho chu kakisih behseh jenge.
19 And my enemies [are] lively, They have been strong, and those hating me without cause, Have been multiplied.
Keiman dougal khohtah tah ho kanei e; amahon ajeh beihel in eidou ui.
20 And those paying evil for good accuse me, Because of my pursuing good.
Amahon thilpha kabol chu thilsen eilethuh un, chuleh thilpha kachepi jing jeh in eidouvun ahi.
21 Do not forsake me, O YHWH, My God, do not be far from me,
O Yahweh Pakai neidalhahih in Elohim ka Pathen kei a kon in um gamla hih behin,
22 Hurry to help me, O Lord, my salvation!
O Yahweh Pakai eihuh hingpa hungloi in lang nei kithopin.
