< Psalms 54 >

1 TO THE OVERSEER. WITH STRINGED INSTRUMENTS. AN INSTRUCTION OF DAVID, IN THE COMING IN OF THE ZIPHIM, AND THEY SAY TO SAUL, “IS DAVID NOT HIDING HIMSELF WITH US?” O God, save me by Your Name, and judge me by Your might.
Kathutkung: Devit Oe Cathut, na min lahoi na rungngang haw. Na thaonae hoi lawk na ceng pouh haw.
2 O God, hear my prayer, Give ear to the sayings of my mouth,
Oe Cathut, ka ratoum e heh thai haw. Ka dei e lawk heh na thai pouh haw.
3 For strangers have risen up against me And terrible ones have sought my soul, They have not set God before them. (Selah)
Bangkongtetpawiteh, ramlouknaw ni kai taranlahoi a thaw awh teh, rep kacuengroenaw ni thei hanlah a kâcai awh. Cathut minhmai khoeroe khen awh hoeh. (Selah)
4 Behold, God [is] a helper to me, The Lord [is] with those supporting my soul,
Khenhaw! Cathut teh na kabawmkung doeh. BAWIPA teh ka hringnae karingkungnaw koe ao.
5 Turn back the evil to my enemies, Cut them off in Your truth.
A tawksak awh e thoenae hah ama ni a patho han. Ahnimouh teh na lawkkatang hoi raphoe haw.
6 I sacrifice to You with a free-will offering, I thank Your Name, O YHWH, for [it is] good,
Kai hai lungthocalah hoi nang koe thuengnae ka sak han. Oe BAWIPA, na min teh ka pholen han. Bangkongtetpawiteh, nang teh na hawi.
7 For He delivered me from all adversity, And my eye has looked on my enemies!
Kai hah runae phunkuep thung hoi na hlout sak teh, ka tarannaw koe ka phat e hah ka mit ni khei a hmu toe.
