Psalms 34
1 [A Psalm] of David; when he changed his behaviour before Abimelech, who drove him away, and he departed. I will bless the LORD at all times: his praise shall continually be in my mouth.
Kawmih a tym awh awm Bawipa taw zoeksang kawng nyng; amah kyihcahnaak ce ka hui kam lai awh awm quiqah kaw.
2 My soul shall make her boast in the LORD: the meek shall hear thereof, and be glad.
Ka hqingnaak ve Bawipa awh ak tha awm kaw; ak khuikhakhqi ing za seitaw zeel u seh.
3 O magnify the LORD with me, and let us exalt his name together.
Bawipa ce nim kyihcah pyi unawh; ang ming ce kut oet cana zoeksang lah u sih.
4 I sought the LORD, and he answered me, and delivered me from all my fears.
Bawipa ce sui nyng, amah ing nim hlat hy; kak kqihnaak boeih awhkawng amah ing ni hul hy.
5 They looked unto him, and were lightened: and their faces shall never be confounded.
Amah ak toek thlangkhqi boeih taw vang unawh; ami haaikhqi ce chahnaak ing am dah pe qoe hy.
6 This poor man cried, and the LORD heard him, and saved him out of all his troubles.
Khawdeng thlang ing ak khy awh ce, Bawipa ing zaak pe nawh, a khuikhanaak khqi boeih awhkawng anih ce hul hy.
7 The angel of the LORD encampeth round about them that fear him, and delivereth them.
Amah ak kqih thlangkhqi taw BawipaK khan ceityihkhqi ing chung unawh anih ce hul uhy.
8 O taste and see that the LORD is good: blessed is the man that trusteth in him.
Bawipa a leeknaak ce tan unawh taw hu lah uh; amah awh ak thukkhqi taw a zoseen hy.
9 O fear the LORD, ye his saints: for there is no want to them that fear him.
Nangmih amah ak thlangciimkhqi, Bawipa ce kqih lah uh, kawtih amah ak kqihkhqi taw ikaw awm am deng ti kawm uh.
10 The young lions do lack, and suffer hunger: but they that seek the LORD shall not want any good thing.
Sendeih taw ak tha boeih nawh ak phoen cawi thai hy, cehlai Bawipa ak sui thlangkhqi taw ik-oeih leek am deng qoe uhy.
11 Come, ye children, hearken unto me: I will teach you the fear of the LORD.
Ka cakhqi law unawh taw ngai lah uh; Bawipa kqihnaak ce ni cawngpyi vang nyng.
12 What man is he that desireth life, and loveth [many] days, that he may see good?
Nangmih hqingnaak ak lungnaakkhqi ingkaw khawnghik leek khawzah huh aham ak ngaihkhqi,
13 Keep thy tongue from evil, and thy lips from speaking guile.
awihche am nak kqawnnaak aham nam lai ce cyt unawh na hui ing qaai awi amak kqawnnaak aham cyt lah uh.
14 Depart from evil, and do good; seek peace, and pursue it.
Ik-oeih che ce cehta unawh ik-oeih leek ce sai lah uh; qoepnaak ce sui unawh hquut lah uh.
15 The eyes of the LORD are toward the righteous, and his ears are [open] unto their cry.
Thlakdyng ak khan awh Bawipa amik taw awm nawh ak khynaak awi ce ang haa ing ngai pehy.
16 The face of the LORD is against them that do evil, to cut off the remembrance of them from the earth.
Cehlai, ik-oeih amak leek ak sai thlangkhqi ce Bawipa ing hawi taak nawh, khawmdek awh a mingmih ami awm ce am sim loet voel hy.
17 [The righteous] cried, and the LORD heard, and delivered them out of all their troubles.
Thlakdyng ak khynaak ce Bawipa ing zaak pe nawh; cekkhqi ce kyinaak ak khui awhkawng hul khqi hy.
18 The LORD is nigh unto them that are of a broken heart, and saveth such as be of a contrite spirit.
Kawlung ak kqekkhqi venawh Bawipa taw zoe penawh lingbyi ak kqekkhqi ce hul hy.
19 Many are the afflictions of the righteous: but the LORD delivereth him out of them all.
Thlakdyng taw kyinaak khawzah hu seiawm, cekkhqi boeih ak khui awhkawng Bawipa ing anih ce hul hy;
20 He keepeth all his bones: not one of them is broken.
a quhkhqi boeih ce ak chung a hlip peek a dawngawh, pynoet ca awm am ek tikaw.
21 Evil shall slay the wicked: and they that hate the righteous shall be condemned.
Cehlai, thlak che taw leeknaak ing him kawmsaw; thlakdyng a qaal ce thawlh sak na awm kaw.
22 The LORD redeemeth the soul of his servants: and none of them that trust in him shall be condemned.
Bawipa ing a tyihzawihkhqi ce hul nawh; amah awh ak thukkhqi boeih taw am thawlh qoe kaw.
