Psalms 52
1 TO THE OVERSEER. AN INSTRUCTION OF DAVID, IN THE COMING IN OF DOEG THE EDOMITE, AND HE DECLARES TO SAUL AND SAYS TO HIM, “DAVID CAME TO THE HOUSE OF AHIMELECH.” Why do you boast in evil, O mighty one? The kindness of God [is] all the day.
Nang tha ak awm soeih, kawtih ik-oeih amak leek awh nang oek qu hy voei? Khawsa mik huh awh chah qai na ak awm nang, kawtih myngawi nang oek qu paqap?
2 Your tongue devises mischiefs, Like a sharp razor, working deceit.
Nam lai ing seetnaak doeng cai sih nawh; zawzi ak hqat thak bat amyihna awm hy, qaai kqawnnaak doeng ce sai hyk ti.
3 You have loved evil rather than good, Lying, than speaking righteousness. (Selah)
Ik-oeih leek anglakawh ik-oeh che ce lungna lat tiksaw, awitak kqawn anglakawh amak thym awih kqawn ce ngaih bet hyk ti.
4 You have loved all devouring words, O you deceitful tongue.
Aw qaai kqawnnaak ing ak be lai! Awih tlo kqawn ce lungna hyk ti.
5 Also—God breaks you down forever, Takes you, and pulls you out of the tent, And He has uprooted you Out of the land of the living. (Selah)
Khawsa ing kumqui plamnaak na ni nuk thla kaw; nang ce ni qawt kawmsaw na khawnghi im awhkawng nik dawk plawk kaw; na awmnaak qam awhkawng nak kqa mah na ni phu kaw.
6 And the righteous see, And fear, and laugh at him.
Thlakdyngkhqi ing hu kawm usaw kqih kawm uh; a mingmih ing qaih na kawm usaw, vemyihna,
7 “Behold, the man who does not make God his strong place, And trusts in the abundance of his riches, He is strong in his mischiefs.”
Khawsa ce vawngcak na taak kaana amah a boeinaak ypna lat nawh thlang hqenaak ben awh tha ak awm thyk thlang vawh awm hy ve!” tina kawm uh.
8 And I, as a green olive in the house of God, I have trusted in the kindness of God, For all time and forever,
Cehlai, kai taw Khawsa ip khuiawh ak qah olive thing amyihna awm nyng; amak dyt thai Khawsa lungnaak ce ni kumqui ingkaw kumqui dyna ka ypnaak.
9 I thank You for all time, because You have done [it], And I wait [on] Your Name for [it is] good before Your saints!
Na ik-oeih sai awh kumqui dyna ni zoeksang kawng nyng saw; namah ang ming awh ngaih-unaak ce ta kawng nyng, kawtih namah ang ming taw leek hy. Nak thlang ciimkhqi haiawh nang ce nim kyih kawng nyng.
