Psalms 39
1 For the leader; for Jeduthun. A psalm of David. I vowed to watch my words, and sin not with my tongue, but to put on my mouth a muzzle, while the wicked were in my presence.
“Katohna chunga chingthei tah in thil bol ing kating, kathusei doh chenga chonseponge. Kavel a Elohim Pathen ginglou ho aumteng kalei kakituh tang ding ahi” tin kei le kei kakihou ve.
2 I was silent and dumb, speechless: but my pain was stirred up.
Hinla hitia thipbeh a kaum a thupha jeng jong changkhat cha seilouva kaum chun kalung sunga lung gimna akhoh secheh in ahi.
3 My heart grew hot within me; as I mused, the fire was kindled, till at last the words came to my tongue.
Kalunga kagelbe chan in kalung gimna akhoh cheh in, hiti chun seilou in kaum theipon ahi:
4 “Teach me, O Lord, my end, and the sum of my days what it is. Let me know how transient I am.
“Yahweh Pakai leiset a kahinkhohi ichan a chom hitam neihin hetsah jing in, kahin nikhohi akisim jinghi neigeldoh sah in, kahin kho iti chom hitam?
5 See! My days you have made but a span, and my life is as nothing before you. It is but as a breath that everyone stands: (Selah)
Nangin kahinkhov hi ichangeija chom a nasem hitam kakhut phang sangin jong asaojo poi. Nang dingin kahinkho lhum kei jong hi haikhat bou ahi soh tan, Mihem hinkho khat cheh jong hi haikhat cheh bou ahi.”
6 it is but in mere semblance we walk to and fro, and all our noise is for nothing. We heap up, and know not who will gather.”
Mihem hinkho hi milom kitol bang bep bou ahin, kisah lunggim naho jong hetman lou kah in akichai loi ji tai. Gou ikhol khom un, kon ahin manding ham jong ihe doh ji pouve.
7 And now, what wait I for, Lord? My hope is in you.
Hijeh chun Yahweh Pakai hoi a kinep na kakoi ding ham? Nanga bou kakinep na aum e.
8 From all my transgressions deliver me; make me not the scorn of the fool.
Kaset bolnom na a kon in neihuh doh in, mingol ho neinoise sah hih in.
9 I am dumb, never opening my mouth, for this is your own doing.
Keima na ansung a thipchet in kaum e; imacha jong kasei louding ahi.
10 Remove your stroke from off me: by the might of your hand I am spent.
Ahinla Yahweh Pakai nei engbol hih in! Nakhut gu dounan kachao lhagam tai.
11 When you rebuke someone to punish their sins, you consume, like a moth, what they treasures. Everyone is only a breath. (Selah)
Kachonset u suhdih na dia neijep tengu le, kasah lut u chonsetna chu nget in aneh bang in ajun lhaji tan ahi. Tahbeh in mihem khat cheh hi haikhat bou ahi.
12 Hear my prayer, O Lord; attend to my cry for help. Hold not your peace at my tears. For I am but a guest of yours, a stranger visiting, like all my ancestors.
O Yahweh Pakai kataona ngai in lang panpi ngaija kataona neingai pih in! kamit lhi lon nah sah mon koi hih in, ajeh chu keima hi namaljin bou kahin, kema masang a kapu kapa teu bang a kholjin vahle kahi bouve.
13 Look away from me, let me smile again, before I die and am gone.
Hiche leiset hinkho hi kadalhah a kahin kho abei masang kakipa a kanui kit na din nalung han na, nagim bol na ho toh neichom khen in.
