< Psalms 58 >

1 To the Chief Musician. "Do not Destroy." A precious Psalm, of David. Are ye, indeed, silent [when] righteousness, ye should speak? When, with equity, ye should judge, O ye sons of men?
Vaihom ho nanghon thutah kiti hi ipi kisei na ahi nahet u hinam? Nang hon thu adih'a natan'u hinam?
2 Aye! ye all do work, perversity, —Throughout the land, your hands, weigh out, violence!
Ahipoi! Nang ho'n na lungsung un thudihlou na gong'un gamsung a hunam a natohna ngen na chelheh sah un ahi.
3 Lawless men have been estranged from birth, They have gone astray from their nativity, speaking falsehood;
Miphalou ho hi chonsesa peng'a ahiuvin, ahung pen'uva pat'in jou apan'un ama deidan cheh'in achon'un ahi.
4 Their poison, is like unto the poison of a serpent, Like the deaf adder, that stoppeth his ear;
Ama hon gul bangin gu hat tah alhao vin; gulsoh bang in thuhil angainom pouve.
5 That will not hearken to the voice of whisperers, Though the wise one try to bind him with spells.
Gul lam sahhon atheile'u ichan geija amut ngeisel vang un akihetmosah un ahi.
6 O God! break away their teeth in their mouth, The biters of the young lions, knock thou out, O Yahweh!
O Elohim Pathen a-ha uhi suhbong jeng'in, O Yahweh Pakai hiche keipi bahkai ho hi a-ha'u suhgoi peh jeng'in.
7 Let such men flow away like waters that disperse themselves: He prepareth his arrow, Like [grass] let them be cut down:
Tolgo'a twi isunlhah a agotloiji bang'in mangthah loi jeng'u hen. Akhut uva achoi u agal manchah'u chu manmo sosah jeng'in.
8 Like a snail, which melteth away as it goeth, An untimely birth of a woman, which hath not seen the sun:
Dahdeng amacham'a ajunlhah ji bang'in junlhahsah'in, naosen athisa hung peng nisa mumanlou bah sah in.
9 Before your kettles can perceive the [kindled] bramble, Be he green or be he withered, he shall be swept away.
Hampa kisatlha bang in ateh akhang Elohim Pathen in lhamlha jeng uhen, leibel meikou lah a ling le khao kigouvam sang a gang jo jeng u hen.
10 The righteous man will rejoice when he hath seen an avenging, His feet, will he bathe in the blood of the lawless one: —
Thildih lou ho akilethuh teng mi chonpha ho kipah di'u ahi.
11 So that a son of earth may say—Surely there is fruit for the righteous man! Surely there are gods who judge in the earth!
Chuteng achaina le mijousen asei diu ahi, “Elohim Pathen a dia hing ho dihtheina chu kipa thilpeh ahin; leiset a jong thudih a thutan Elohim Pathen aum mong e.”
