Psalms 56

1 For the Chief Musician; set to Jonath elem rehokim. [A Psalm] of David: Michtam: when the Philistines took him in Gath. Be merciful unto me, O God; for man would swallow me up: all the day long he fighting oppresseth me.

Aw Khawsa, nim qeen cang lah, thlak chekhqi ing nik thla khqek khqek unawh; ang qui na ni tuk khqoet khqoet uhy.

2 Mine enemies would swallow me up all the day long: for they be many that fight proudly against me.

Kai anik kqawn seetkhqi ing ang loet na ni hquut unawh: thlang khawzah ing oek qu doena kai ni tuk uhy.

3 What time I am afraid, I will put my trust in thee.

Kai ing kak kqih awh, namah ce ni ypna vang.

4 In God I will praise his word: in God have I put my trust, I will not be afraid; what can flesh do unto me?

Ak awi kam kyih peek ce, Khawsa ni, Khawsa ni ka ypnaak; ap kqih tikawng. Ak thi thai thlanghqing ing ikaw ani tinaak tang kaw?

5 All the day long they wrest my words: all their thoughts are against me for evil.

Myngawi kak awi ni hawi pe unawh; kai tlawh peek aham doeng na ni teng uhy.

6 They gather themselves together, they hide themselves, they mark my steps, even as they have waited for my soul.

Ka hqingnaak him aham za qu unawh, ni mah unawh ka khaw kan qym halal uhy.

7 Shall they escape by iniquity? in anger cast down the peoples, O God.

Cekkhqi ce ikawmyih na awm koeh loet sak khqi; Aw Khawsa, nak kawsonaak ing pilnam thlang zawk sak lah.

8 Thou tellest my wanderings: put thou my tears into thy bottle; are they not in thy book?

Ka lungnat ve khoem lah; na cak-chawi awh ka mikphli tui ve qee lah - na khoemnaak cauk awh cekkhqi ce ak awm nu?

9 Then shall mine enemies turn back in the day that I call: this I know, that God is for me.

Qeennaak thoeh doena nang ka nik khy awh ka qaalkhqi ce hlat kawm uh. Cawhtaw Khawsa taw kai a koe ni tice sim hawh kawng nyng.

10 In God will I praise [his] word: in the LORD will I praise [his] word.

Ak awi kam kyih peek ce Khawsa, ak awi kam kyihcah peek ce Bawipa ni.

11 In God have I put my trust, I will not be afraid; what can man do unto me?

Khawsa ce ka ypnaak dawngawh; ap kqih kawng. Thlanghqing ing kai ikaw ani tinaak tang kaw?

12 Thy vows are upon me, O God: I will render thank offerings unto thee.

Aw Khawsa, na venawh awi kam law nyng; ymnaak ik-oeih ce na venawh nawn law kawng.

13 For thou hast delivered my soul from death: [hast thou] not [delivered] my feet from falling? that I may walk before God in the light of the living.

Ikawtih, thihnaak awhkawng ni loet sak hyk ti, hqing vangnaak Khawsa haaiawh ka cehnaak thai aham ka khaw ve am bah sak hyk ti.
