Psalms 64

1 [For the Chief Musician. A Psalm by David.] Hear my voice, God, in my complaint. Preserve my life from fear of the enemy.

Aw Khawsa, kang ngaih kyinaak awi ka sa awh ve, ngai law lah; kqih awm qaal anglakawhkawng ka hqingnaak ve hlip chung lah.

2 Hide me from the conspiracy of the wicked, from the noisy crowd of the ones doing evil;

Thlakchekhqi a tengnaak awhkawng ni thuh nawhtaw, khawboek chekhqi awipungkhqi ven awhkawng ni thuh lah.

3 who sharpen their tongue like a sword, and aim their arrows, deadly words,

Amim laikhqi ce zawzi amyihna taak pat la unawh, ak chy ak ngan la amyihna amik awi ing thlang hyt uhy.

4 to shoot innocent men from ambushes. They shoot at him suddenly and fearlessly.

Ak awm dym thlang ce mah unawh kaap uhy, kqihnaak taak kaana, anih ce kaap zap uhy.

5 They encourage themselves in evil plans. They talk about laying snares secretly. They say, "Who will see them?"

Ak che ik-oeih poeknaak awh tha pe qu unawh, ang hypna ami dun thang akawng ce kqawn uhy; “U ing a huh tang kaw?” ti uhy.

6 They plot injustice; they hide a well-conceived plan. Surely man's mind and heart are cunning.

Amak thym ik-oeih awh za qu unawh, “sai ham hly nik poek hloem lauh hy aa!” ti uhy. Thlanghqing ak kawlung ve qaai kqawn thai pai hy.

7 But God will shoot at them. They will be suddenly struck down with an arrow.

Cehlai, cekkhqi ce Khawsa ing la ing kaap kaw; kawlkalh awh cekkhqi ce kaap hawh kaw.

8 Their own tongues shall ruin them. All who see them will shake their heads.

A mimah am lai ha ce hawi pek khqi khup phlet kawmsaw plawci sak khqi kaw; ak hukhqi boeih ing thekhanaak ing a lu thlek sih kawm uh.

9 All humankind shall be afraid. They shall declare the work of God, and shall wisely ponder what he has done.

Thlanghqing boeih ing kqih hawh kawm uh; Khawsa bibi ce kqawn kawm usaw a ik-oeih sai ce poek kawm uh.

10 The righteous shall be glad in the LORD, and shall take refuge in him. All the upright in heart shall praise him.

Thlakdyng ingtaw Khawsa awh zeel seitaw amah awh ce thuk seh; kawlung ak dyngkhqi boeih ing amah kyihcah seh!
