Psalms 58
1 TO THE OVERSEER. “DO NOT DESTROY.” A MIKTAM OF DAVID. Is it true, O silent one, that you speak righteously? Do you judge uprightly, O sons of men?
Nangmih ukkungkhqi ak thym na nu awi namik kqawn ce? Thlangkhqi anglakawh ak thym na nu awi nami deng?
2 Even in heart you work iniquities, In the land you ponder the violence of your hands.
Nak kawk khuiawh taw amak thym poek u tiksaw, nami kutkhqi ing ak che ik-oeih ni naming thoeng sak uh.
3 The wicked have been estranged from the womb, They have erred from the belly, speaking lies.
Thlakche taw a thang plek awhkawng lam pleng qoe hawh hy; a nu a puk khui awhkawng qaai awi kqawn doena thoek hy qoe hawh uhy.
4 Their poison [is] as poison of a serpent, As a deaf cobra shutting its ear,
Cekkhqi a chy taw khqui a chy amyihna awm nawh, ngentau a haa ak pangkhqi amyihna awm uhy,
5 Which does not listen to the voice of whisperers, A charmer of most skillful charms.
Kawmih aih dyna thoemnaak ing mawk mai seiawm,
6 O God, break their teeth in their mouth, Break down the jaw-teeth of young lions, O YHWH.
Aw Khawsa, cekkhqi am kha awhkaw ami haakhqi ce khoeng pe lah; Aw Bawipa, samthyyn a haakhqi ve ek sak kang lah.
7 They are melted as waters, They go up and down for themselves, His arrow proceeds as they cut themselves off.
Qam na ak lawng tui amyihna qeng sak bang nawhtaw; licung ami hawi awh ce ami lakhqi rem pe kang seh.
8 He goes on as a snail that melts, [As] an untimely birth of a woman, They have not seen the sun.
Kawlawk taw ang thoeih awh tui a zut noe noe amyihna, naasen ak qawk amyihna, khawmik qoe koeh hu u seh.
9 Before your pots discern the bramble, As living, He whirls away in His burning anger.
Nak amkhqi ing hling maih hlawk ang zaak hlan awh - a hqing awm ak koh awm- thlak che taw qeng bang kaw.
10 The righteous rejoices that he has seen vengeance, He washes his steps in the blood of the wicked.
Lu lawh na awm nawh thlak chekhqi a thi ing khaw ami silh awh ce thlakdyngkhqi taw zeel kawm uh.
11 And man says: “Surely fruit [is] for the righteous: Surely there is a God judging in the earth!”
Cawhtaw thlangkhqi ing; “thlakdyng khqi taw laksawng huk cang unawh; Khawmdek awi ak dengkung awm awm cang ti maw ve” ti kawm uh.
