Psalms 143
1 [A Psalm by David.] Hear my prayer, LORD. Listen to my petitions. In your faithfulness and righteousness, relieve me.
Kathutkung: Devit Oe BAWIPA, kaie ratoum lawk heh na thai pouh haw. Kai ni ka kâhei e hah na thai pouh haw.
2 Do not enter into judgment with your servant, for in your sight no man living is righteous.
Nange yuemkamcunae lahoi thoseh, nange lannae lahoi thoseh, kai hah na pato haw. Nange na san hoi lawkcengnae koe na kâenkhai hanh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, kahring e tami buet touh boehai na hmalah a lan tie awm hoeh.
3 For the enemy pursues my soul. He has struck my life down to the ground. He has made me live in dark places, as those who have been long dead.
Atangcalah taran ni ka hringnae heh a rektap teh, ka hringnae hai talai dawk rekrek a suk teh, ngailawi kasawlah kadout tangcoung e patetlah hmonae um hai kai hah na o sak.
4 Therefore my spirit is overwhelmed within me. My heart within me is desolate.
Kai teh, ka lung apout teh ka thung vah ka lung a rek.
5 I remember the days of old. I meditate on all your doings. I contemplate the work of your hands.
Kaloum tangcoung e a hninnaw hah ka pouk teh, Bawipa ni a sak e hnonaw hoi kut hoi a sak e hnonaw hah luepluep ka pouk.
6 I spread forth my hands to you. My soul thirsts for you, like a parched land. (Selah)
Bawipa nang koe ka kut ka daw. Talai ka ke e patetlah ka hringnae ni nang teh na doun. (Selah)
7 Hurry to answer me, LORD. My spirit fails. Do not hide your face from me, so that I do not become like those who go down into the pit.
Oe BAWIPA karanglah na pato haw. Ka muitha teh a tha abaw toe. Kai teh duenae tangkawm dawk ka kum hane tami patetlah alouklah na kangvawi takhai hanh loe.
8 Cause me to hear your loving kindness in the morning, for I trust in you. Cause me to know the way in which I should walk, for I lift up my soul to you.
Amom vah nange pahrenlungmanae hah na thai sak haw. Bangkongtetpawiteh, kai ni nang teh na kâuep toe. Ka dawn hane lamthung hah na panuek sak. Bangkongtetpawiteh, ka hringnae ni nang doeh na kângue toe.
9 Deliver me, LORD, from my enemies. I run to you for refuge.
Oe BAWIPA, ka tarannaw e kut dawk hoi kai hah na hlout sak haw. Kai teh nang doeh na kângue.
10 Teach me to do your will, for you are my God. Your Spirit is good. Lead me in the land of uprightness.
Nange ngainae ka tawk thai nahan, na cangkhai haw. Bangkongtetpawiteh, nang teh kaie Cathut lah na o. Nange Muitha teh ahawi, kai hah lamkalan dawk na thak lawiseh.
11 Revive me, LORD, for your name's sake. In your righteousness, bring my soul out of trouble.
Oe BAWIPA na min kecu dawk kai hah na hring sak haw. Na lannae kecu dawk ka hringnae hah runae thung hoi rasat haw.
12 In your loving kindness, cut off my enemies, and destroy all those who afflict my soul, For I am your servant.
Kai teh nange san lah ka o dawkvah, namae pahrenlungmanae lahoi ka tarannaw hah, na takhoe pouh haw.
