Psalms 63
1 [A Psalm by David, when he was in the desert of Judah.] God, you are my God. I will earnestly seek you. My soul thirsts for you. My flesh longs for you, in a dry and weary land, where there is no water.
Judah praezaek ah oh naah, David ih Saam laa. Aw Sithaw, nang loe ka Sithaw ah na oh; nang to kang pakrong han; tui om ai praezaek ah, ka pakhra mah nang hae tui ah anghaeh moe, ka taksa mah nang to poek.
2 So I have seen you in the sanctuary, watching your power and your glory.
Na thacakhaih hoi na lensawkhaih to hnuk hanah, hmuenciim ah nang kang pakrong moe, kang hnuk boeh.
3 Because your loving kindness is better than life, my lips shall praise you.
Nang tahmenhaih loe hinghaih pongah hoih kue baktih toengah, pahni hoiah nang kang pakoeh han.
4 So I will bless you while I live. I will lift up my hands in your name.
Ka hing thung tahamhoihaih kang paek han, na hmin hoiah ban ka payangh han.
5 My soul shall be satisfied as with the richest food. My mouth shall praise you with joyful lips,
Tangkhring hoi kathawk moi baktiah, ka hinghaih mah zok amhah tih, ka pahni mah anghoehaih laa to sah ueloe, ka pakha mah nang to pakoeh tih.
6 when I remember you on my bed, and think about you in the night watches.
Ka iihkhun hoi nang to kang panoek poe moe, aqum puek nang to kang poek han.
7 For you have been my help. I will rejoice in the shadow of your wings.
Nang loe kai bomkung ah na oh pongah, na pakhraeh tahlip ah kang hoe han.
8 My soul stays close to you. Your right hand holds me up.
Ka hinghaih loe nang khaeah ni amha, na bantang ban hoiah nang patawnh.
9 But those who seek my soul, to destroy it, shall go into the lower parts of the earth.
Ka pakhra paro han pakrong kaminawk loe, longkhaw thungah caeh o tih.
10 They shall be given over to the power of the sword. They shall be jackal food.
Nihcae loe sumsen hoi amtimh o ueloe, tasuinawk ih rawkcak ah angcoeng o tih.
11 But the king shall rejoice in God. Everyone who swears by him will praise him, for the mouth of those who speak lies shall be silenced.
Toe siangpahrang loe Sithaw ah anghoe tih; anih hoi lokkamhaih sah kaminawk loe lensawk o tih; toe amsawnlok thui kaminawk ih pakha loe tamuep pae khoep tih.
