< Psalms 5 >

1 [For the Chief Musician, with the flutes. A Psalm by David.] Listen to my words, YHWH. Consider my (meditation)
Kathutkung: Devit Oe BAWIPA, ka lawk na thai pouh haw. Ka khopouknae hah na pouk pouh haw.
2 Give attention to the voice of my cry, my King and my God; for to you do I pray.
Ka siangpahrang hoi ka Cathut, ka hramnae hah na thai pouh haw. Nang koevah, ka ratoum.
3 YHWH, in the morning you shall hear my voice. In the morning I will lay my requests before you, and watch.
Oe BAWIPA, amom vah, ka lawk na thai han. Amom vah nang koe lah kangvawi laihoi, lathueng lah ka khet han.
4 For you are not a God who desires wickedness. Evil can't live with you.
Bangkongtetpawiteh, nang teh thoenae dawk a lung kahawi e Cathut nahoeh. Thoenae hai nang koe awm hoeh.
5 The arrogant shall not stand in your sight. You hate all evildoers.
Na hmithmu vah kâoupnaw teh kangdout thai mahoeh. Payonnae ka sak e pueng teh na hmuhma.
6 You will destroy those who speak lies. YHWH despises a person of bloodshed and deceit.
Laithoe kadeinaw hah na raphoe teh, dumyennae hoi tami theikahrannaw hah Bawipa ni a panuet.
7 But as for me, in the abundance of your loving kindness I will enter into your house. I will bow toward your holy temple in reverence of you.
Hatei kai teh, na lungmanae apap kecu dawk na im vah ka tho han. Nang taki laihoi kathounge Bawkim koelah kangvawi laihoi na bawk han.
8 Lead me, YHWH, in your righteousness because of my enemies. Make your way straight before me.
Oe BAWIPA, ka tarannaw kecu dawk na lannae hoi na hrawi haw, ka hmalah na lam hah lan sak haw.
9 For there is nothing reliable in their mouth. Their heart is destruction. Their throat is an open tomb; with their tongues they flatter.
Bangkongtetpawiteh, a pahni dawk yuemkamcunae awmhoeh. Athung lae teh rawknae doeh. A lawkron teh kamawng e tangkom doeh. A laihoi dueng doeh ayânaw a oup awh.
10 Hold them guilty, God. Let them fall by their own counsels. Cast them out because of the multitude of their transgressions, for they have rebelled against you.
Oe Cathut, yon pen haw. Amamouh ni a sak awh e dawk letlang bawt awh naseh. Kâtapoenae moipap dawkvah, tâkhawng haw. Bangkongtetpawiteh, nang taran laihoi taran a thaw awh.
11 But let all those who take refuge in you rejoice. Let them always shout for joy, because you defend them. And let those who love your name be joyful in you.
Hatei, nang ka kâuep e pueng, konawm awh naseh. Na ngue dawkvah, konawm laihoi hram awh naseh. Na min ka lungpataw naw hai nang dawk konawm awh naseh.
12 For you bless the righteous, YHWH. You surround him with favor like a shield.
Bangtelane Oe BAWIPA, tamikalan yawhawi na poe vaiteh, minhmai kahawi hoi bahling patetlah na ramuk han.
