Psalms 51
1 To the Chief Musician. A Melody of David. When Nathan the Prophet had come to him, after he had gone in unto Bath-sheba. Be favorable unto me, O God, according to thy lovingkindness, And, in the multitude of thy compassions, blot out my transgressions;
Aw Khawsa, na lungnaak amak dyt thai ak caming kai ve nim qeen cang lah; na thintlawhnaak ak bau soeih ing ka sai thawlhnaak ve caih law sak cang lah.
2 Thoroughly wash me from mine iniquity, And, from my sin, make me pure;
Kang plawng thawlhnaak ve sil law nawhtaw ka thawlhnaak awhkawng ni ciim sak lah.
3 For, my transgressions, do, I, acknowledge, And, my sin, is before me continually:
Ikawtih, ka sai thawlhnaak ve sim nyng saw, ka thawlhnaak ve ka haiawh awm loet hy.
4 Against thee—against thee alone, have I sinned, And, wickedness—in thine eyes, have I done, —That thou mayest, Be justified when thou speakest, —Be clear when thou judgest.
Nang ing ak kalh na, nang aven doengawh, thawlh hawh nawh namik huh awh ak che ik-oeih ce sai hawh vik nyng, cedawngawh awi nak kqawn awh na thymnaak ce dang nawh awi na ceknaak awh thym hyk ti.
5 Lo! in iniquity, was I brought forth, And, in sin, did my mother conceive me.
Ka thang plek awhkawng thawlh qoe hawh nawh, ka nu puk khuiawh thawlh doena ni anik bah qoe hawh.
6 Lo! faithfulness, hast thou desired in the inward parts, Yea, in the hidden part, wilt thou cause me to know, wisdom.
Nang ingtaw ak khui ben awitak doeng ngaih nawh; kawlung am cei dyt awh nang ing cyihnaak ni cawngpyi hyk ti.
7 Wilt thou cleanse me from sin with hyssop, That I may be pure? Wilt thou wash me, That I may be whiter, than snow?
Hyssop ing ni ciim sak nawhtaw, cawhtaw ciim hawh kawng nyng; ni sil nawhtaw, cawhtaw vyl anglakawh bawk hawh kawng nyng.
8 Wilt thou cause me to hear joy and gladness? The bones thou hast crushed would exult.
Awmhly kaw zeelnaak awi ce ning zaak sak lah; na ek sak ka quhkhqi ve zeel lah seh.
9 Hide thy face from my sins, —And, all mine iniquities, blot out;
Ka thawlhnaak awh na haai thuh nawh kang plawng thawlhnaak ve caih law sak lah.
10 A pure heart, create for me, O God, And, a steadfast spirit, renew within me.
Aw Khawsa, kak khuiawh kawlung ciim sai law lah, kang myihla ve thai law sak pang lah.
11 Do not cast me away from thy presence, And, thy Holy Spirit, do not take from me:
Na ven awhkawng koeh nik khawng valh nawh nang Ciim Myihla awm koeh lo law valh cang.
12 Restore unto me the joy of thy salvation, And, with a willing spirit, wilt thou uphold me: —
Na hulnaak zeelnaak ce ni pe tlaih nawhtaw na nim tunaak qap aham boe ak ngai myihla ce ni pe lah.
13 I would teach transgressors thy ways, And, sinners, unto thee, should return.
Cawhtaw ik-oeih ak sai thawlh thlangkhqi ce na lam cawngpyi kawng nyng saw, thlak thawlhkhqi ing na venna hlat law tlaih kawm uh.
14 Rescue me from shed-blood, O God, the God of my salvation, My tongue should shout thy righteousness;
Aw Khawsa, kai anik hulkung Khawsa, thi lawng sak thawlhnaak awhkawng ni hul cang lah, cawhtaw kam lai ing na dyngnaak laa ce sa kaw.
15 O My Lord! my lips, wilt thou open, And, my mouth, shall declare thy praise.
Aw Bawipa, ka hui ve awng law lah, cawhtaw kam kha ing nam kyihnaak ce kqawn kaw.
16 For thou wilt not desire sacrifice—that I should give it, Ascending-offering, will not please:
Bulnaak awh nak kaw am zeel hy, cek kaa mantaw hawlaw hawh kawng nyng; hyih phumnaak awh awm am zeel bai hyk ti.
17 The sacrifices of God, are a spirit that is broken, —A heart—broken and crushed, O God, thou wilt not despise.
Khawsa a bulnaak khqi taw myihlak kqek ve ni; kawlung kqek nawh kawseetnaak ve ni, Aw Khawsa ve ve nang ing am sit ti kawp ti.
18 Do good, in thy good-pleasure, unto Zion, Wilt thou build the walls of Jerusalem!
Na ngaihnaak amyihna Zion ce hang leek sak nawh; Jerusalem vawng ce thawh tlaih lah.
19 Then, shalt thou desire the sacrifices of righteousness, Ascending-sacrifice and whole burnt-offering, Then, shall ascend upon thine altar, young bulls.
Cawhtaw dyngnaak bulnaak ce awm kawmsaw nang ak khawzeelnaak a cuna hyih phumnaak ce awm hawh kaw; cekcoengawh taw na bawkthang awh vaitawm caikhqi ce nawn law hawh kawm uh.
