Psalms 56

1 TO THE OVERSEER. [SET] ON “A SILENT DOVE FAR OFF.” A MIKTAM OF DAVID, IN THE PHILISTINES’ TAKING HOLD OF HIM IN GATH. Favor me, O God, for man swallowed me up, All the day fighting he oppresses me,

Aw Khawsa, nim qeen cang lah, thlak chekhqi ing nik thla khqek khqek unawh; ang qui na ni tuk khqoet khqoet uhy.

2 My enemies have swallowed up all the day, For many [are] fighting against me, O Most High,

Kai anik kqawn seetkhqi ing ang loet na ni hquut unawh: thlang khawzah ing oek qu doena kai ni tuk uhy.

3 [In] the day I am afraid I am confident toward You.

Kai ing kak kqih awh, namah ce ni ypna vang.

4 In God I praise His word, in God I have trusted, I do not fear what flesh does to me.

Ak awi kam kyih peek ce, Khawsa ni, Khawsa ni ka ypnaak; ap kqih tikawng. Ak thi thai thlanghqing ing ikaw ani tinaak tang kaw?

5 All the day they wrest my words, All their thoughts [are] for evil concerning me,

Myngawi kak awi ni hawi pe unawh; kai tlawh peek aham doeng na ni teng uhy.

6 They assemble, they hide, they watch my heels, When they have expected my soul.

Ka hqingnaak him aham za qu unawh, ni mah unawh ka khaw kan qym halal uhy.

7 They escape by iniquity, In anger put down the peoples, O God.

Cekkhqi ce ikawmyih na awm koeh loet sak khqi; Aw Khawsa, nak kawsonaak ing pilnam thlang zawk sak lah.

8 You have counted my wandering, You place my tear in Your bottle, Are they not in Your scroll?

Ka lungnat ve khoem lah; na cak-chawi awh ka mikphli tui ve qee lah - na khoemnaak cauk awh cekkhqi ce ak awm nu?

9 Then turn back my enemies in the day I call. This I have known, that God [is] for me.

Qeennaak thoeh doena nang ka nik khy awh ka qaalkhqi ce hlat kawm uh. Cawhtaw Khawsa taw kai a koe ni tice sim hawh kawng nyng.

10 In God I praise the word, In YHWH I praise the word.

Ak awi kam kyih peek ce Khawsa, ak awi kam kyihcah peek ce Bawipa ni.

11 In God I trusted, I do not fear what man does to me,

Khawsa ce ka ypnaak dawngawh; ap kqih kawng. Thlanghqing ing kai ikaw ani tinaak tang kaw?

12 On me, O God, [are] Your vows, I repay thank-offerings to You.

Aw Khawsa, na venawh awi kam law nyng; ymnaak ik-oeih ce na venawh nawn law kawng.

13 For You have delivered my soul from death, Do You not [keep] my feet from falling? To habitually walk before God in the light of the living!

Ikawtih, thihnaak awhkawng ni loet sak hyk ti, hqing vangnaak Khawsa haaiawh ka cehnaak thai aham ka khaw ve am bah sak hyk ti.
