Psalms 89
1 AN INSTRUCTION OF ETHAN THE EZRAHITE. Of the kind acts of YHWH, I sing for all time, From generation to generation I make known Your faithfulness with my mouth,
Ezrahite Ethan ih Maskil. Angraeng palungnathaih to dungzan khoek to laa ah ka sak han; na oepthohhaih to kaminawk boih khaeah ka pakha hoi roe ka thuih han.
2 For I said, “Kindness is built for all time, The heavens! You establish Your faithfulness in them.”
Palungnathaih loe dungzan khoek to caak tih; vannawk boih nuiah na oepthohhaih to na caksak tih.
3 I have made a covenant for My chosen, I have sworn to My servant David:
Ka qoih ih kami hoiah lokmaihaih to ka sak moe, ka tamna David khaeah lokmaihaih to ka sak boeh,
4 “Even for all time I establish your seed, And have built your throne to generation and generation.” (Selah)
na tii to dungzan khoek to ka caksak moe, na caanawk ih adung khoek to na angraeng tangkhang to ka caksak han, tiah na thuih. (Selah)
5 And the heavens confess Your wonders, O YHWH, Your faithfulness [is] also in an assembly of holy ones.
Aw Angraeng, na sak ih dawnrai hmuennawk to vannawk mah saphaw o ueloe, na oepthohhaih doeh kaciim kaminawk amkhuenghaih ahmuen ah saphaw o tih.
6 For who in the sky, compares himself to YHWH? [Who] is like to YHWH among sons of the mighty?
Van ah Angraeng hoi patah han koi mi maw kaom? Thacak kami ih capanawk thungah Angraeng baktiah mi maw kaom?
7 God is very terrible, In the secret counsel of His holy ones, And fearful over all surrounding Him.
Kaciim kaminawk amkhuenghaih ahmuen ah loe Angraeng to paroeai zit o; anih loe ataeng ah kaom kaminawk pongah khingya paek han koi ah oh.
8 O YHWH, God of Hosts, Who [is] like You—a strong YAH? And Your faithfulness [is] around You.
Aw misatuh kaminawk ih Angraeng Sithaw, nang baktih thacak Angraeng mi maw om tih? Na oepthohhaih mah nang to ang takui.
9 You [are] ruler over the pride of the sea, In the lifting up of its billows You restrain them.
Nang mah tuipui to na uk; tuiphu angthawk tahang naah, tuiphu to na dipsak.
10 You have bruised Rahab, as one wounded. You have scattered Your enemies with the arm of Your strength.
Hum ih kami baktiah, Rahab to na taprawt pet pet moe, na ban thacakhaih hoiah na misanawk to na vah phaeng.
11 The heavens [are] Yours, The earth [is] also Yours, The habitable world and its fullness, You have founded them.
Vannawk loe nang ih hmuen ah oh o, long doeh nang ih ni; long hoi athung ah kaom hmuennawk boih loe, nang mah ni na sak.
12 North and south You have appointed them, Tabor and Hermon sing in Your Name.
Aluek hoi aloih to na sak; Tarbo hoi Hermon loe na hmin rang hoiah anghoe tih.
13 You have an arm with might, Strong is Your hand—high Your right hand.
Na ban loe thacakhaih hoiah koi; na ban loe thacak moe, na bantang ban loe sang.
14 Righteousness and judgment [Are] the fixed place of Your throne, Kindness and truth go before Your face.
Katoengah lokcaekhaih hoi toenghaih loe na angraeng tangkhang ohhaih ahmuen ah oh; tahmenhaih hoi loktang loe na hmaa ah caeh tih.
15 O the blessedness of the people knowing the shout, O YHWH, they habitually walk in the light of Your face.
Anghoehaih lok panoek kaminawk loe tahamhoih! Aw Angraeng, nihcae loe na hmaa ah aanghaih hoiah caeh o.
16 They rejoice in Your Name all the day, And they are exalted in Your righteousness,
Nihcae loe na hmin rang hoiah ni thokkruek anghoe o; na toenghaih rang hoiah ni nihcae mah pakoeh o.
17 For You [are] the beauty of their strength, And in Your good will is our horn exalted,
Nang loe nihcae lensawkhaih hoi thacakhaih ah na oh; nang tahmenhaih rang hoiah ni kaicae ih taki loe pakoeh ah oh.
18 For our shield [is] of YHWH, And our king to the Holy One of Israel.
Kaicae abuephaih loe Angraeng ih ni; Ciimcai Israelnawk ih kami loe kaicae ih siangpahrang ah oh.
19 Then You have spoken in vision, To Your saint, indeed, You say, I have placed help on a mighty one, Exalted a chosen one out of the people,
Hnuksakhaih hoiah nangmah ih kaciim kami khaeah lok na thuih; thacak kami abomh hanah kang paek boeh; kaminawk thung hoi qoih ih kami maeto ka sangsak boeh.
20 I have found My servant David, With My holy oil I have anointed him.
Ka tamna David to ka hnuk boeh; anih loe kaciim kaimah ih situi hoiah ka bawh boeh,
21 With whom My hand is established, My arm also strengthens him.
anih nuiah ka ban thacak tih; ka ban tampawk hoiah anih tha ka caksak han.
22 An enemy does not exact on him, And a son of perverseness does not afflict him.
Misa mah anih ih hmuen to lomh pae mak ai; kasae kami ih ca mah doeh anih to pacaekthlaek mak ai.
23 And I have beaten down his adversaries before him, And I plague those hating him,
Anih hmaa ah a misanawk to ka boh pae moe, anih hnuma kaminawk to raihaih ka paek han.
24 And My faithfulness and kindness [are] with him, And in My Name is his horn exalted.
Ka oepthohhaih hoi ka palungnathaih anih khaeah om ueloe, ka hmin rang hoiah anih ih taki to pakoeh tih.
25 And I have set his hand on the sea, And his right hand on the rivers.
Anih ih ban loe tuipui nuiah ka suek pae moe, a bantang ban to vapuinawk nuiah ka koeng pae han.
26 He proclaims to Me: “You [are] my Father, My God, and the rock of my salvation.”
Anih mah, Nang loe kam pa, ka Sithaw, ka pahlonghaih lungsong, tiah na kawk tih.
27 I also appoint him firstborn, Highest of the kings of the earth.
Anih to long siangpahrangnawk pongah sang kue, anih to ka calu ah ka suek han.
28 For all time I keep for him My kindness, And My covenant [is] steadfast with him.
Anih hanah ka palungnathaih dungzan khoek to ka suek han; ka lokmaihaih loe a nuiah cak poe tih.
29 And I have set his seed forever, And his throne as the days of the heavens.
Anih ih atii to dungzan khoek to ka caksak moe, van oh nathung anih anghnuthaih angraeng tangkhang to ka caksak poe han.
30 If his sons forsake My law, And do not walk in My judgments;
A caanawk mah ka paek ih kaalok caeh o taak moe, ka lokcaekhaih baktiah caeh o ai ah,
31 If they defile My statutes, And do not keep My commands,
ka thuih ih loknawk to aek o moe, ka paek ih loknawk to pazui o ai nahaeloe,
32 I have looked after their transgression with a rod, And their iniquity with strokes,
a sakpazaehaihnawk pongah thingboeng hoiah ka thuitaek moe, a sakpazae o haih baktih toengah dan ka paek han.
33 And I do not break My kindness from him, Nor do I deal falsely in My faithfulness.
Toe kai ih tahmen amlunghaih to anih khae hoiah ka la pae ving mak ai, ka oepthohhaih doeh kam rosak mak ai.
34 I do not profane My covenant, And I do not change that which is going forth from My lips.
Ka sak ih lokmaihaih to kam rosak mak ai, pakha hoi ka thuih ih lok doeh kam khraisak mak ai.
35 Once I have sworn by My holiness, I do not lie to David,
David khaeah lok kam lai mak ai, tiah ka ciimhaih hoi vaito ka khawt ah lok ka kam boeh.
36 His seed is for all time, And his throne [is] as the sun before Me,
Anih ih atii loe cak poe ueloe, anih ih angraeng tangkhang loe ka hmaa ih ni baktiah om tih.
37 It is established as the moon for all time, And the witness in the sky is steadfast. (Selah)
Khrah baktiah cak poe ueloe, van ih oepthok hnukung baktiah om tih. (Selah)
38 And You, You have cast off, and reject, You have shown Yourself angry with Your anointed,
Toe nang mah nang pahnawt sut boeh moe, nang panuet boeh, situi na bawh ih kami nuiah palung na phui boeh.
39 Have rejected the covenant of Your servant, You have defiled his crown to the earth,
Na tamna hoiah sak ih lokmaihaih to na pahnawt sut boeh moe, anih ih angraeng lumuek to panuet kaom long ah na vah pae ving boeh.
40 You have broken down all his hedges, You have made his fortifications a ruin.
Anih ih sipaenawk to na phraek pae boih boeh; anih ih kacak sipaenawk doeh nam rosak boeh.
41 Everyone passing by the way has spoiled him, He has been a reproach to his neighbors,
Loklam ah caeh kaminawk mah anih to lomh o; anih loe ataeng ah kaom kaminawk kasaethuih han koi ah oh.
42 You have exalted the right hand of his adversaries, You have caused all his enemies to rejoice.
A misanawk ih bantang ban to na toengh pae tahang; a misanawk boih to nang hoesak boeh.
43 Also—You turn back the sharpness of his sword, And have not established him in battle,
Anih ih sumsen haa to na paqoi pae ving boeh; anih misatuk naah nang doe haih ai boeh.
44 Have caused [him] to cease from his brightness, And have cast down his throne to the earth.
A lensawkhaih to na boengsak moe, anih ih angraeng tangkhang to long ah na vah pae ving boeh.
45 You have shortened the days of his youth, Have covered him over [with] shame. (Selah)
A qoeng li naah aninawk to na duemsak; azathaih hoiah anih to na khuk khoep boeh. (Selah)
46 Until when, O YHWH, are You hidden? Does Your fury burn as fire forever?
Nasetto maw? Aw Angraeng, nang hawk poe han boeh maw? Palung na phuihaih hmai baktiah kangh tih maw?
47 Remember how [short] my lifetime [is]. Why have You created in vain All the sons of men?
Ka hinghaih loe nasetto maw duemh, tito panoek ah; na sak ih kaminawk loe azom pui ah ni oh o.
48 Who [is] the man that lives, and does not see death? He delivers his soul from the hand of Sheol. (Selah) (Sheol h7585)
Kawbaktih kami maw duekhaih tongh ai ah hing thaih? Anih loe taprong thacakhaih thung hoiah a hinghaih pahlong thai tih maw? (Selah) (Sheol h7585)
49 Where [are] Your former kindnesses, O Lord, [Which] You have sworn to David in Your faithfulness?
Aw Angraeng, loktang lok hoiah na tamna David khaeah na sak ih lokmaihaih hoi canghnii ih na tahmenhaih to naah maw oh ving boeh?
50 Remember, O Lord, the reproach of Your servants, I have borne in my bosom all the strivings of the peoples,
Angraeng, na tamnanawk pahnuithuihhaih to pakuem poe ah; thacak kaminawk boih mah kasaethuihaih to palung thung hoi kawbang maw ka pauep, tito panoek ah,
51 With which Your enemies reproached, O YHWH, With which they have reproached The steps of Your anointed.
Aw Angraeng, na misanawk mah kasae a thuih o; nihcae loe nangmah na caksak kami ih khok tangkannawk to pahnui o thuih boeh.
52 Blessed [is] YHWH for all time. Amen and amen!
Angraeng khaeah tahamhoihaih dungzan khoek to om nasoe! Amen hoi Amen.
