< Psalms 16 >

1 God, protect me because I go to you to keep me safe!
Neihoibitnin O Elohim Pathen: ajeh chu nangahi kinem jing kahi.
2 I said to Yahweh, “You are my Lord; all the good things that I have come from you.”
O Kalhagao, nangman Yahweh Pakai koma Nanghi ka Pakai nahi nati, thilpha kaneijouse hi nanga kon bou ahi;
3 Your people who live in this land are wonderful; I delight to be with them.
Leiset a Elohim Pathen lhentumte hi pachat umtah ahiuvin, amahohi keidinga kagal lamkai le kakipa thanop napen ahiuve.
4 Those who choose to worship other gods will have many things that cause them to be sad. I will not join them when they make sacrifices [to their gods]; I will not even join them when they speak [MTY] the names of their gods.
Pathen dangho nung jui a delle ho chu alung khamnao kibejing ding ahi. Amaho thisan a kilhaina ganthat a pang ka hilou ding, a pathen nu jong kahoupeh loudiu ahi.
5 Yahweh, you are the one whom I have chosen, and you give me great blessings. You protect me and control what happens to me.
Yahweh Pakai hi ka chanding gou le ka phatthei channa khon chu ahi. Yahweh Pakai in ka ijakai eichintup peh e.
6 Yahweh has given me a wonderful place in which to live; I am delighted with all the things that he has given me [MET].
Nangin neipeh gam jonghi gamphapen ahi, itobanga goupha kidang neipeh hitam!
7 I will praise Yahweh, the one who teaches/disciplines me; even at night [he] you put in my mind what is right for me to do.
Ijakai eihilla ka Yahweh Pakai chu keiman thangvah inge; janteng jong le avel in eigeldoh sah jin eihil jie.
8 I know that Yahweh is always with me. He is beside me; so nothing will (perturb me/cause me to be worried).
Yahweh Pakai in eiumpi danhi keiman hetna kanei jinge. Amahi kakomma naichakhatna um ahi ti kahen hijeh chun keima lungthomhao ponge.
9 Therefore I am glad and I [MTY, DOU] rejoice; I can rest securely
Hijeh hin keima kalung amongsellin chuleh kipanan kadimmin Elohim Pathen kathangvah e.
10 because you, Yahweh, will not allow my soul/spirit to remain in the place where the dead people are; you will not allow me, your godly one, to stay there. (Sheol h7585)
Ajeh chu nangin thina mun a neidalha pon natin namitheng te jong lhankhuh a lhahlutsah pon nate. (Sheol h7585)
11 You will show me the road that leads to [receiving eternal] life, and you will make me joyful when I am with you. I will have pleasure forever when I am (at your right hand/seated next to you).
Nangin hinnalampi chu neimusah'in natin, neiumpi jal a kipana le nei umpina tonsot nopna chu nei pen nate.
