Psalms 69
1 To the Chief Musician. On "The Lilies." David’s. Save me, O God, For waters have entered as far as the life;
Aw Khawsa, ni hul lah, tui ing ka hawng dy pha law hawh hy.
2 I have sunk in deep swamp, Where there is no place to stand, I have come into abysses of waters, Where a flood hath overflowed me;
Khaw lehnaak coet amak awm dizui ak khuina tla hawh nyng. Tuidung na nung tla nyng saw; tui ing ni zawl malh hawh hy.
3 I am weary with mine outcry, Parched is my throat, —Mine eyes have become dim, through waiting for my God.
Bawmnaak thoeh doena kak khy aih awh; kak awiqawng koh hawh hy. Khawsa ka toeknaak awh kamik awm am dang voel hawh hy.
4 More than the hairs of my head, Are they who hate me without cause, —Firmer than my bones, Are they who are my foes for false cause, —What I had not plundered, then, had I to restore.
Kaw am maiawh, kai anik sawhnaak thlangkhqi ve ka lu awhkaw lusam anglakawh doem khqoet uhy; amak awm qoe ikaw am maiawh kai hqe aham anik sui ka qaalkhqi kqeng soeih hy.
5 O God, thou, hast known my folly, And, my wrong-doings, from thee, have not been hid.
Aw Khawsa, ka qawnaak ve nang ing sim hyk ti, ka sai thawlhnaak ve na hai awhkawng thuh thai na am awm hy.
6 Let them not be ashamed, through me, Who have waited for thee, O My Lord, Yahweh of hosts, —Let them not be confounded, through me, Who are seeking thee, O God of Israel!
Aw Bawipa, Boeimang Bawipa, nang awh ngaih-unaak ak ta thlangkhqi ce kai awh kawboetnaak koeh ta u seh; Aw Israelkhqi a Khawsa, nang anik suikhqi ce kai awh chahqai koeh hu u seh.
7 Because, for thy sake, have I borne reproach, Confusion hath covered my face;
Ikawtih, nang awh ce kqawn setnaak kung na nawh chahnaak ing ka haai ni dah khoep hy.
8 One estranged, have I become, to my own brethren, Yea, an alien, to the sons of my own mother;
Ka koeinakhqi venawh khin na awm nyng saw, ka nucakhqi venawh thlak ha na awm nyng;
9 Because, zeal for thy house, hath eaten me up, And, the reproaches of them who have reproached thee, have fallen upon me.
Na im awh kak tha thawhnaak ing ni ai zip nawh, nang anik kqawnsetkhqi ak kqawn setnaak ce kak khan awh tla hy.
10 When I have humbled my soul with fasting, Then hath it turned to my reproach;
Buh zeih ing kqang doena kak cykcah awhtaw, kqawn setnaak ce yh thai bit kawng nyng;
11 When I have made my clothing of sackcloth, Then have I served them for a by-word;
Dip che kang byng awh ce, thlangkhqi ing lym hangnaak na ni sai uhy.
12 They who sit in the gate talk against me, —And [against me are] the songs of them who imbibe strong drink.
Vawng chawmkeng awhkaw ak ngawikhqi ing ni qaih na unawh, zuk quikhqi a qenglung taila na awm kqoeng nyng.
13 But, as for me, my prayer shall be unto thee, O Yahweh, in a time of acceptance, O God, in the abounding of thy lovingkindness, answer me with thy saving faithfulness.
Nang nak kaw a zeel tym awh, Aw Bawipa, na venawh cykcah law nyng; Aw Khawsa, cawh ce na lungnaak awh, na hulnaak tak ing nim hlat lah.
14 Rescue me out of the mire, lest I sink, Let me be rescued, From my haters, and, From abysses of waters:
Nawng khui awhkawng ni hul nawhtaw, koeh ning cum sak; kai anik sawhnaakkhqi kut khui awhkawng ni hul nawhtaw tui dung khui awhkawng ni thaawng lah.
15 Let not a flood of waters overflow me, And let not the depth swallow me up, Neither let the well close, over me, her mouth.
Tui doem ing koeh ni sing seitaw tui dung ingawm koeh nik daih seh. Lawk-kqawng ingawm am kha koeh ni khyp sih seh.
16 Answer me, O Yahweh, for good is thy lovingkindness, According to the abounding of thy compassions, turn thou towards me:
Aw Bawipa, na lungnaak leeknaak ing nim hlat lah; nam qeennaak bau soeih ak caming kai benna hawi qu law cang lah.
17 Then do not hide thy face from thy servant, Because I am in distress, haste thou—answer me!
Na tyihzawih a ven awhkawng na haai ce koeh thuh nawhtaw; kyinaak hu vik hawh nyng, nang ing ang tawnna nim hlat lah.
18 Oh draw near unto my soul—redeem it, Because of mine enemies, ransom me.
Ka venawh zoe law nawh ni hul lah; ka qaalkhqi awhkawng nang ing ni thaawng lah.
19 Thou, knowest my reproach, and my shame, and my confusion, Before thee, are all mine adversaries.
Kawamyihna nik kqawn seet unawh, kaw boetnaak ingkaw chahqai na ni ta uhy tice nang ing sim hyk ti; ka qaalkhqi boeih ve na haiawh ni ami awm.
20 Reproach hath broken my heart, and I am weak, —Though I waited for one to pity me, yet there was none, And for comforters, yet I found not any.
kqawn setnaak ing kak kawlung kqek sak unawh hulkung ak taal na ni ta hyt uhy; hlang qeenkhaw ak ngai sui moe nyng, u awm am hu nyng saw, ak hloepkung sui moe nyng, u awm am awm hy.
21 But they put in my food—poison! And, for my thirst, they gave for my drink—vinegar!
Ka buh awh a hyt kha ni taak law pe unawh ka tui ngaih a sitnaak na misur tui ak thui ni pe uhy.
22 Let their table, before them, become a snare, And unto their friends, a lure;
A mingmih a haiawh caboei dawn peek na ak awm ce thang na dun pe u sei taw; Khawboe set phu zawk naak ing pel na phawk pe u seh.
23 Let their eyes become too dim to see, And, their loins, continually cause thou to shake;
Ami mikkhqi a mang dangnaak aham hyp pesak khqi seitaw, amim tingkhqi awm khun pek khqi loet seh nyng.
24 Pour out over them thine indignation, And let, the glow of thine anger, overtake them:
Cek khqik khan awh nak kawsonaak ce hawk pe lah; nak kawsonaak ak eih ing cekkhqi ce kee seh.
25 Let their encampment become desolate, In their tents, be there none to dwell:
A mingmih a awmnaak ce pawng seitaw; cekkhqi a im awhkaw a u awm koeh awm voel seh.
26 For, whom, thou thyself, hadst smitten, they pursued, And, unto the pain of thy wounded ones, they must needs add.
Ikawtih, nang ing ngawha na ai sak thlangkhqi ce the a kha na unawh nang ing tlawh na peek thlangkhqi kawng ce kqawn uhy.
27 Lay punishment on their iniquity, And let them not enter into thy righteousness;
A sai thawlhnaak ce sai thawlhnaak ing sap pe lah; nang a hulnaak ce koeh huh sak.
28 Let them be blotted out of the book of life, And, with the righteous, let them not be enrolled.
Hqingnaak cauk awhkawng cekkhqi ce caih sak bang nawh thlakdyngkhqi mi koeh noet sih haih.
29 I, then, am humbled and in pain, Thy salvation, O God, may it set me on high.
Thawlhnaak ing khuikha hawh nyng; Aw Khawsa, na hulnaak ing nik chung seh nyng.
30 I will praise the Name of God with a song, And will magnify him with thanksgiving;
Laa ing Khawsa ang ming ce kyihcah nyng saw zeelnaak awi kqawnnaak ing zoeksang kawng nyng.
31 So shall it be more pleasing to Yahweh than a bullock of the herd, Showing horn [and] divided hoof.
Vaitawm cai anglakawh Bawipa zeel sak khqoet kawmsaw, ki ingkaw khawme ak ta vaitawm cai anglakawh Bawipa zeel sak khqoet kaw.
32 The humbled have seen—they rejoice! Ye seekers of God, let your heart, then, revive;
Khawdengkhqi ing hu kawm usaw zeel kawm uh. Nangmih Khawsa ak suikhqi, namik kawlung hqing seh!
33 For, a Hearkener to the needy, is Yahweh, And, his prisoners, hath he not despised.
Bawipa ing ak voethlauh thlangkhqik awi ce zaak pek khqi nawh tamnaa na ak awm thlangkhqi awm am hep hy.
34 Let the heavens and the earth, praise him, The seas, and everything that creepeth therein.
Khan ingkaw dek ing amah kyihcah seitaw, tuicunli ingkaw ak khui awhkaw ak cawlhtat khqi boeih ingawm,
35 For, God, will save Zion, And build the cities of Judah, So shall men dwell there, and possess it:
Ikawtih, Khawsa ing Zion ce hul kawmsaw Judah khawk baukhqi ce thawh tlaih kaw. Cawhtaw thlangkhqi ce ak khuiawh awm kawm usaw pang pahoei kawm uh;
36 Yea, the seed of his servants, shall inherit it, And, the lovers of his Name, shall settle down therein.
A tyihzawihkhqi a cadilkhqi ing pang kawm usaw, ang ming ak lungnaak thlangkhqi ce a khawk khuiawh awm hawh kawm uh.
