Psalms 6

1 [For the Chief Musician; on stringed instruments, upon the eight-stringed lyre. A Psalm by David.] YHWH, do not rebuke me in your anger, neither discipline me in your wrath.

Kathutkung: Devit Oe BAWIPA, lungkhuek laihoi na yue hanh, na lungphuen laihoi na yue hanh.

2 Be gracious to me, YHWH, for I am frail. YHWH, heal me, for my bones are trembling.

Oe BAWIPA, na pahren haw. Ka tha a youn. Oe BAWIPA, na dam sak haw. Ka hrunaw teh runae a kâhmo toe.

3 And my soul is greatly troubled. But you, YHWH, how long?

Ka hringnae hai a ru toe. Oe BAWIPA, nâsittouh maw na ro han.

4 Return, YHWH. Deliver my soul. Save me because of your lovingkindness.

Oe BAWIPA, bout ban nateh, na rungngang haw. Oe na lungmanae hoi na rungngang haw.

5 For in death there is no memory of you. In Sheol, who shall give you thanks? (Sheol h7585)

Bangkongtetpawiteh, duenae koehoi nang pouknae awmhoeh, apinimouh phuen koehoi lunghawinae lawk a dei han. (Sheol h7585)

6 I am weary with my groaning. Every night I drench my bed; I melt my couch with my tears.

Ka cingounae koe ka tâwn. Kho pei ka dai lah ka ikhun dawk ka ka teh, ka mitphi ni lahoung koung a duk sak.

7 My eye wastes away because of grief. It grows old because of all my adversaries.

Lungmathoenae kecu dawk ka mit koung a ro teh, ka tarannaw kecu dawk a mawm toe.

8 Depart from me, all you workers of iniquity, for YHWH has heard the sound of my weeping.

Payonnae kasaknaw pueng, na cettakhai awh leih. Bangkongtetpawiteh, BAWIPA ni ka kanae lawk hai a thai.

9 YHWH has heard my plea. YHWH has accepted my prayer.

BAWIPA ni ka kâheinae hah a thai toe. BAWIPA ni ka ratoumnae hah a dâw han.

10 May all my enemies be ashamed and greatly terrified. May they turn back, suddenly ashamed.

Ka taran pueng kaya laihoi ru awh naseh. Ban awh naseh, vaitalahoi kayak awh naseh.
