Psalms 27

1 [By David.] The LORD is my light and my salvation. Whom shall I fear? The LORD is the stronghold of my life. Of whom shall I be afraid?

David kah BOEIPA tah kai kah vangnah neh ka daemnah ni. Unim ka rhih bal eh. BOEIPA tah ka hingnah lunghim ni. Unim ka rhih pueng eh?

2 When evildoers came at me to eat up my flesh, even my adversaries and my foes, they stumbled and fell.

Thaehuet ka rhal rhoek neh ka thunkha rhoek loh ka saa caak ham ka taengla halo vaengah paloe uh vetih cungku uh ni.

3 Though an army is deployed against me, my heart shall not fear. Though war should rise against me, even then I will be confident.

Caem loh ka taengah rhaeh cakhaw ka lungbuei loh rhih mahpawh. Caemtloek loh kai taengah a thoh vaengah he khaw ka pangtung ni.

4 One thing I have asked of the LORD, that I will seek after, that I may dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life, to see the LORD's beauty, and to inquire in his temple.

Ka hingnah khohnin boeih he BOEIPA im ah khosak tih BOEIPA kah mueithen te hmuh ham neh a bawkim ah hnukdawn ham pakhat bueng te ka hue tih BOEIPA taengah ka bih.

5 For in the day of trouble he will keep me secretly in his pavilion. In the covert of his tabernacle he will hide me. He will lift me up on a rock.

Yoethae hnin ah amah kah po ah kai n'khoem ni. A dap kah a huephael ah kai n'thuh vetih lungpang sola kai n'pomsang ni.

6 Now my head will be lifted up above my enemies around me. I will offer sacrifices of joy in his tent. I will sing, yes, I will sing praises to the LORD.

Ka kaepvai kah ka thunkha rhoek sola ka lu a pomsang pawn vetih amah kah dap ah hmueih ka nawn ni. Tamlung neh ka hlai vetih BOEIPA te ka tingtoeng ni.

7 Hear, LORD, when I cry with my voice. Have mercy also on me, and answer me.

Aw BOEIPA, ka ol han ya lah. Kan khue vaengah n'rhen lamtah n'doo dae.

8 My heart said of you, "Seek his face." Your face, LORD, I will seek.

Ka lungbuei loh nang kawng dongah, “Kai maelhmai tlap lah!,” a ti dongah nang maelhmai ni ka tlap eh BOEIPA.

9 Do not hide your face from me. Do not put your servant away in anger. You have been my help. Do not abandon me, neither forsake me, God of my salvation.

Kai taeng lamkah na hmai thuh boeh. Na sal kah thintoek dongah mangthong boel mai. Kai aka bomkung la na om tih kai nan phap sut pawt dongah ka daemnah Pathen nang loh kai nan hnoo moenih.

10 When my father and my mother forsake me, then the LORD will take me up.

A nu neh a pa long pataeng kai n'hnoo rhoi dae BOEIPA loh kai n'khoem.

11 Teach me your way, LORD. Lead me in a straight path, because of my enemies.

Kai he na longpuei n'thuinuet lamtah ka lungawn rhoek kongah kai he tlangkol caehlong ah m'mawt lah BOEIPA.

12 Do not deliver me over to the desire of my adversaries, for false witnesses have risen up against me, such as breathe out violence.

A hong kah laipai rhoek neh kuthlahnah kah hil loh kai taengah tlai uh dae ka rhal rhoek kah hinglu dongah kai nan tloeng moenih.

13 I am still confident of this: I will see the goodness of the LORD in the land of the living.

Aka hing rhoek kah khohmuen ah BOEIPA kah a thennah te hmuh ham ka tangnah pueng.

14 Wait for the LORD. Be strong, and let your heart take courage. Yes, wait for the LORD.

BOEIPA te lamtawn lah. Thaahuel lamtah na lungbuei ning sak. Te dongah BOEIPA te lamtawn lah.
