< Psalms 43 >
1 Vindicate me, God, and plead my cause against a faithless nation. Oh, deliver me from the deceitful and unjust man.
Aw Khawsa, ka thymnaak ve dang sak lah, Khawsa amak sim pilnam anglakawh ka thymnaak ve nik kqawn pyi lah; qaai ak kqawnkhqi ingkaw thlakche kut khui awhkawng ni hul lah.
2 For you, God, are my strength. Why have you rejected me? Why do I go mourning because of the oppression of the enemy?
Nang taw Khawsa ka vawngcak na awm hyk ti. Ikawtih na ni qoek vik? Ikawtih ka qaalkhqi ing ni nam qap nawh ngaihkyi ing ko doena kang pla khing kaw?
3 Oh, send out your light and your truth. Let them lead me. Let them bring me to your holy mountain, To your tents.
Na vangnaak ingkaw nak awitak ce tyi nawhtaw, cekqawi ing ni sawi lah seh; cekqawi ing na awmnaak tlang ciim na ni ceh pyi lah seh.
4 Then I will go to the altar of God, to God, my exceeding joy. I will praise you on the harp, God, my God.
Cawhtaw Khawsa a bawkthang a awmnaak, ka awmhlynaak ingkaw ka zeelnaak Khawsa venna cet kawng. Aw Khawsa, ka Khawsa nang ce tingtoeng ing nim kyihcah vang.
5 Why are you in despair, my soul? Why are you disturbed within me? Hope in God. For I will again give him thanks, my saving presence and my God.
Aw ka hqingnaak ikaw tinawh nu nang ngam hqoeng vik? Ikawtih kak kawk khuiawh ngaihang tum na na awm? Bawipa awh ngaih-unaak ce ta lah, anih taw kam kyihcah hly dawngawh, ka hulkung ingkaw ka Khawsa ce.
