< Psalms 51 >

1 TO THE OVERSEER. A PSALM OF DAVID, IN THE COMING OF NATHAN THE PROPHET TO HIM WHEN HE HAS GONE IN TO BATHSHEBA. Favor me, O God, according to Your kindness, According to the abundance of Your mercies, Blot out my transgressions.
Aka mawt ham, Bathsheba taengla a caeh vanbangla tonghma Nathan loh anih a paan vaengkah David tingtoenglung Pathen aw kai n'rhen lah. Na sitlohnah neh na haidamnah a cungkuem vanbangla ka boekoeknah he han huih mai.
2 Thoroughly wash me from my iniquity, And cleanse me from my sin,
Kai kathaesainah loh a yet khaw a yet oeh dongah kai n'sil lamtah ka tholhnah lamkah kai n'caihcil lah.
3 For I know my transgressions, And my sin [is] continually before me.
Kamah kah boekoek te kamah loh ka ming tih ka tholhnah loh kamah hmaiah om taitu.
4 Against You, You only, I have sinned, And done evil in Your eyes, So that You are righteous in Your words, You are pure in Your judging.
Nang namah bueng taengah ka tholh tih na mikhmuh ah boethae ka saii. Tedae na thui vaengah nan tang sak tih nan cawh vaengah nan cim sak.
5 Behold, I have been brought forth in iniquity, And my mother conceives me in sin.
Thaesainah neh ka thang tih tholhnah neh a nu loh kai n'yom.
6 Behold, You have desired truth in the inward parts, And in the hidden part You cause me to know Wisdom.
Kodang khuikah oltak te na ngaih dongah cueihnah na kael neh kai nan tuk nan kil.
7 You cleanse me with hyssop and I am clean, Wash me, and I am whiter than snow.
Pumpiding neh kai nan cil daengah ni ka caihcil eh. Kai nan silh daengah ni vuelsong lakah ka bok eh.
8 You cause me to hear joy and gladness, You make bones You have bruised joyful.
Omngaihnah neh kohoenah te kai nan yaak sak dongah na khaem tangtae rhuhrhong long khaw omngaih uh saeh.
9 Hide Your face from my sin. And blot out all my iniquities.
Ka tholhnah dongah na maelhmai thuh mai lamtah ka thaesainah boeih he han huih lah.
10 Create for me a clean heart, O God, And renew a right spirit within me.
Pathen aw kai ham aka caih lungbuei han suen lamtah ka khui kah mueihla he cikngae la pan han tlaih lah.
11 Do not cast me forth from Your presence, And do not take Your Holy Spirit from me.
Kai he namah mikhmuh lamkah m'voei boel lamtah kai taengkah Mueihla Cim lo boel mai.
12 Restore to me the joy of Your salvation, And a willing spirit sustains me.
Na daemnah, omngaihnah te kai taengah ha mael lamtah, moeihoeihnah mueihla loh kai n'talong saeh.
13 I teach transgressors Your ways, And sinners return to You.
Boekoek rhoek te na khosing ka cang puei vetih hlangtholh rhoek loh nang taengla ha bal uh bitni.
14 Deliver me from blood, O God, God of my salvation, My tongue sings of Your righteousness.
Pathen, ka loeihnah Pathen hlang thii lamkah kai n'huul lah. Nang kah duengnah te ka lai loh tamhoe puei saeh.
15 O Lord, you open my lips, And my mouth declares Your praise.
Ka Boeipa aw, ka hmui he han ong lamtah ka ka loh nang koehnah te doek saeh.
16 For You do not desire sacrifice, or I give [it], You do not accept burnt-offering.
Hmueih he na ngaih pawt dongah ni na ngaih koinih kam paek mai sue. Hmueihhlutnah khaw na doe moenih.
17 The sacrifices of God [are] a broken spirit, A heart broken and bruised, O God, You do not despise.
Pathen kah a ngaih hmueih tah mueihla aka paeng ke ni. Lungbuei aka paeng tih aka paep te Pathen nang loh na hnawt moenih.
18 Do good in Your good pleasure with Zion, You build the walls of Jerusalem.
Namah kah kolonah dongah Zion te khophoeng pha sak lamtah Jerusalem vongtung te khueng pah.
19 Then You desire sacrifices of righteousness, Burnt-offering, and whole burnt-offering, Then they offer bullocks on your altar!
Te vaengah, duengnah hmueih, hmueihhlutnah khaw boeih na ngaih vetih na hmueihtuk ah vaito a khuen uh ni.
