< Psalms 97 >
1 YHWH reigns. Let the earth rejoice. Let the multitude of islands be glad.
Kasakkung: panuekhoeh BAWIPA ni a uk, talai lunghawi seh. Tuilumnaw hai lunghawi awh naseh.
2 Clouds and darkness are around him. Righteousness and justice are the foundation of his throne.
Tâmai hoi hmonae ni a ramuk teh, lannae hoi kângingnae teh a bawitungkhung a kamtuenae doeh.
3 A fire goes before him, and burns up his adversaries on every side.
A hmalah hmai a cei teh, ka kalup e tarannaw teh a kak awh.
4 His lightning lights up the world. The earth sees, and trembles.
Sumpapalik ni talai a ang sak teh, talai ni a hmu toteh a pâyaw.
5 The mountains melt like wax at the presence of YHWH, at the presence of the Lord of the whole earth.
Monnaw pueng teh BAWIPA hmalah, talai van pueng teh Bawipa hmalah khoilai patetlah koung a kamyawt.
6 The heavens declare his righteousness. All the peoples have seen his glory.
Kalvan ni a lannae hah a pâpho teh, tami pueng ni a bawilennae hah a hmu awh.
7 Let all them be shamed who serve engraved images, who boast in their idols. Worship him, all you gods.
Meikaphawk thaw ka tawk e pueng, ayawmyin dawk kakâoupnaw pueng teh, kaya laihoi awm awh naseh, cathutnaw pueng ama teh bawk awh haw.
8 Zion heard and was glad. The daughters of Judah rejoiced, because of your judgments, YHWH.
Bangkongtetpawiteh, Oe BAWIPA nange lawkcengnae dawkvah, Zion a lunghawi teh Judah canunaw hai a konawm awh.
9 For you, YHWH, are most high above all the earth. You are exalted far above all gods.
Oe BAWIPA, nang teh talai van pueng hlak a lathueng poung lah na o. Cathut pueng lathueng vah tawm lah na o.
10 You who love YHWH, hate evil. He preserves the souls of his faithful ones. He delivers them out of the hand of the wicked.
Nangmouh Cathut lungpataw naw, kathoute hah panuet awh nateh, ama ni a tamikathoungnaw e hringnae hah a khetyawt teh, tamikathoutnaw e kut dawk hoi a rungngang.
11 Light is sown for the righteous, and gladness for the upright in heart.
Tamikalannaw koe a ang teh lungthin kalannaw koe konawmnae teh ouk a pha.
12 Be glad in YHWH, you righteous people. Give thanks to his holy Name.
Nangmouh tami kalannaw, BAWIPA koe konawm awh haw. A min kathoung hah pholen awh.
