Psalms 64
1 To the Chief Musician. A Melody of David. Hear, O God, my voice when I complain, From dread peril by the foe, wilt thou guard my life.
Aka mawt ham David kah Tingtoenglung Pathen aw ka kohuetnah ol he han ya lah. Thunkha kah birhihnah lamloh ka hingnah he hang kueinah lah.
2 Wilt thou hide me, From the conclave of evil-doers, From the crowd of workers of iniquity.
Thaehuet rhoek kah baecenol neh, boethae aka saii rhoihui kut lamkah, kai nan thuh.
3 Who have sharpened, like a sword, their tongue, Have made ready their arrow—a bitter word;
A lai te cunghang bangla haat tih, a ol khaa te thaltang la a nuen uh.
4 To shoot, in secret places, at the blameless one, Suddenly they shoot at him, and fear not.
A cuemthuek te a huephael lamloh a nuen tih, anih te buengrhuet a kah uh khaw rhih uh pawh.
5 They strengthen for them a wicked word, They talk of hiding snares, They have said, Who can see them?
Ol thae doek ham amamih thaphoh uh thae tih, “Hlaeh tung uh sih lamtah unim aka hmuh ve?,” a ti uh.
6 They devise perverse things, They have completed the device well devised, Both the intent of each one, and the mind, are unsearchable.
Dumlai khaw a phuelhthaih uh tih, “Poeknah he khak n'uep coeng,” a tiuh. Te dongah hlang kah lungbuei khui he, a dung la om.
7 Once let God have shot at them an arrow, Suddenly have appeared their own wounds!
Tedae amih te Pathen loh thaltang neh a kah buengrhuet vetih, hmasoe la om uh ni.
8 When they were to have ruined another, their tongue smote themselves, All who observe them take flight.
Te vaengah amamih kah olka a tongtah uh te, aka hmuh boeih loh yong uh ni.
9 Therefore have all men feared, —And have told the doing of God, And, his work, have considered.
Tedae hlang tom loh a rhih uh vaengah, Pathen kah a bisai te a thui uh vetih, a khoboe te a lungming puei uh ni.
10 The righteous man shall rejoice in Yahweh, and seek refuge in him, Then shall glory—all who are upright in heart.
Aka dueng te BOEIPA ah a kohoe saeh lamtah amah dongah ying saeh. Lungbuei aka thuem boeih khaw thangthen uh saeh.
