Psalms 141
1 Yahweh, I call out to you; [please] help me quickly! Listen to me when I am calling to you.
Aw Bawipa, nang ni ka nik khy; ka venawh ang tawnna law cang. Ka nik khy awh kak awi ve ngai cang lah.
2 Accept my prayer as though it were incense [being burned as an offering] [SIM] to you. And accept me while I lift up my hands [to pray] to you like you accept sacrifices [that I offer to you each] evening [SIM].
Kak cykcahnaak ve na haiawh bawktui na awm seitaw; ka kutphyl ve khawmy ben awhkaw lucik nawn amyihna awm seh.
3 Yahweh, do not allow me to say [MTY] things that are wrong; guard my lips.
Aw Bawipa, kam kha awh khoemkung ta law nawhtaw; ka hui chawmkeng ve qeh law lah.
4 Prevent me from wanting to do anything that is wrong, and from joining with wicked men when they want to do evil deeds [DOU]. Do not [even] allow me to share in eating delightful food with them!
Kak kawlung ve ik-oeih che benna, thlakchekhqi a ik-oeih sainaak ing amak leek ik-oeih ak sai thlangkhqi benna koeh hawi law; a mingmih a buh a an tui awm koeh ni ai sak.
5 It is all right if righteous people strike/hit me or rebuke me because they are trying to act kindly toward me [to teach me to do what is right], but I do not want wicked [people] to [honor me by] anointing my head with [olive] oil; I am always praying [that you will punish them because of] the wicked deeds [that they do].
Thlak dyng ingtaw ni vyk mai seh – qeennaak dawngawh ni; ni zyi awm ni zyi seh – ka lu awhkaw situi nani a awm. Ka lu ing ap tha na tikaw. Cehlai kak cykcahnaak ing thlakchekhqi a ik-oeih sai ce oelh poepa hy;
6 When their rulers are thrown down from the top of rocky cliffs, people will know that what you, Yahweh, said [about them] is true.
a ningnih ak ukkungkhqi ce minpoeng na khawng kawm uh, kak awih kqawnkhqi ve ak leek ni ka kqawn tice thlakchekhqi ing sim kawm uh.
7 Like a log that is split and cut into small pieces [SIM], their shattered bones will be scattered [on the ground] near [other] graves. (Sheol h7585)
Cekkhqi ing, “Thlang ing dek a nawk awh deklai a ah amyihna, kaimih a quhkhqi taw phyi a keng awh theh qu kang hy,” ti kawm uh. (Sheol h7585)
8 But Yahweh God, I [continue to] ask you [to help me]. I ask you to protect me; do not allow me to (die/be killed) [now]!
Cehlai, Aw Boeimang Bawipa, ka mik qawi ing nang ni ani dan; nang awh ni kang thuk – thihnaak benna nang ing koeh ni pe.
9 [It is as though] people have set traps for me; protect me from falling into those traps, [It is as though] they have spread nets to catch me; keep me from being caught in those nets.
Kai aham ami dun law dawng awhkawng ni loet sak nawhtaw; thlakchekhqi ing ami dun law dawng awhkawng ni loet sak lah.
10 I desire that wicked [people] will fall into the traps they have set [to catch me] while I escape [from them].
Kai taw ngaihding na ka ceh awh, thlakchekhqi taw a mimah a lawk awh awk nawn u seh.
