< Psalms 7 >

1 [A meditation by David, which he sang to YHWH, concerning the words of Cush, the Benjamite.] YHWH, my God, I take refuge in you. Save me from all those who pursue me, and deliver me,
Aw Bawipa ka Khawsa, nang awh kai thuk nyng; kai anik hquutkhqi kut khui awhkawng ni hul lah;
2 lest they tear apart my soul like a lion, ripping it in pieces, while there is none to deliver.
U ingawm ama ni hul awhtaw samthyyn amyihna cekkhqi ing ni phu vit vit kawm uh.
3 YHWH, my God, if I have done this, if there is iniquity in my hands,
Aw Bawipa ka Khawsa, ve a them sai nawh ka kut ve a thawlh vek awhtaw -
4 if I have rewarded evil to him who was at peace with me, or oppressed my enemy without cause,
Kai ingqawi kang qoep pyi thlang venawh them che ka sai, am awhtaw a sawhqat na ka qaal a them ce ka muk peek awhtaw;
5 let the enemy pursue my soul, and overtake it; yes, let him tread my life down to the earth, and lay my glory in the dust. (Selah)
ka qaal ing ni hquut pha seitaw; ka hqingnaak ce dek awh leh nawh dekvai lak awh ni ih sak seh.
6 Arise, YHWH, in your anger. Lift up yourself against the rage of my adversaries. Awake, my God; you have appointed judgment.
AW Bawipa, kawso doena tho nawhtaw; ka qaalkhqi ak kawsonaak ce tuk lah. Ka Khawsa hqyng nawhtaw awih thym kqawn lah.
7 And let the congregation of the peoples surround you, and rule over them on high.
Thlangkqeng ak cunkyng ing nang ce nik chung khoep lah seh. Hun sang nakawng cekkhqi ce uk lah;
8 YHWH administers judgment to the peoples. Judge me, YHWH, according to my righteousness, and to my integrity that is in me.
Bawipa ing thlangkhqi ce awi deng lah seh. Aw Bawipa sawsang soeih, ka dyngnaak ingkaw ka leeknaak amyihna, nang ing awi ni deng lah.
9 Oh let the wickedness of the wicked come to an end, but establish the righteous. The righteous God tests hearts and minds.
Aw ak dyng Khawsa, thlang ak kawlung kawpoek ak chingkung, thlak che khawboe seetnaak ce dyt sak nawhtaw thlakdyng ce loet sak lah.
10 My shield is with God, who saves the upright in heart.
Kai a phuhqa taw sawsang soeih Khawsa ni, anih ingtaw kawlung ak dyngkhqi ce hul hy.
11 God is a righteous judge, yes, a God who has indignation every day.
Khawsa taw ak dyng awidengkung na awm nawh, myngawi kawsonaak ak dang sakkung Khawsa na awm hy.
12 If a man doesn't relent, he will sharpen his sword; he has bent and strung his bow.
Anih ing a mang hloet qu mai mantaw, zawzi ce ak hqaat na taak kawmsaw; a licung ce a hawi coengawh hlah kaw.
13 He has also prepared for himself deadly weapons. He makes ready his flaming arrows.
Thihnaak kawi lungpawk ce tlaih oepchoeh nawh; maina ak kqawng thai la ce met hyt hawh hy.
14 Look, he travails with iniquity. Yes, he has conceived mischief, and brought forth falsehood.
Seetnaak ing phyihsu nawh kyinaak ak hu ingtaw seetnaak ce thang sak hy.
15 He has dug a hole, and has fallen into the pit which he made.
Lawk-kqawng ak co ing amah a lawk-kqawng nawn awh tla hy.
16 The trouble he causes shall return to his own head, and his violence shall come down on the crown of his own head.
Thawlhnaak ak sai ce amah a pum awh tla lat kawmsaw, boeseetnaak ak sai ce amah a luk khan awh tla kaw.
17 I will give thanks to YHWH according to his righteousness, and will sing praise to the name of YHWH Most High.
A dyngnaak awh ce Bawipa venawh zeelnaak awi kqawn nyng saw, sawsang soeih Bawipang ming kyihcahnaak laa ce sa kawng nyng.
