Psalms 19
1 [When people look at everything that] God [has placed in] the skies, they can see that he is very great; they can see the great things that he has created.
Khan khawkhqi ing Khawsa boeimangnaak khypyi unawh, khawnghi khqi ing a kut sai bibi ce khypyi uhy.
2 Day after day [it is as though the sun] proclaims [the glory of God], and night after night [it is as though the moon and stars] say that they know [that God made them].
Hypoet coeng hypoet cekkhqi ing awi kqawn unawh, than oet coeng than oet cyihnaak ce dang sak uhy.
3 They do not really speak; they do not say any words. There is no voice [from them] for anyone to hear.
Han a hun awh awm am ning zaak hly kawi awih kqawn ingkaw awi am awm hy.
4 But what they declare [about God] goes throughout the world, and [even people who live in] the most distant/remote places on earth can know it. The sun is in the skies where God placed it [MET];
Cekkhqi ak awi ing khawmdek pum pha nawh, khawmdek a dytnaak dyna thang khawnghak hy.
5 it rises each morning like a bridegroom [who is happy] as he comes out of his bedroom after his wedding. It is like a strong athlete who is very eager to start running in a race.
Cadawng zu ak lo iptung khui awhkawng ak thoeng law ingkaw, ang tah ak ly thlang dawng loehlangnaak awh awmhly doena ak dawng ing myih qu hy.
6 The sun rises at one side of the sky and goes across [the sky and sets on] the other side, and nothing can hide from its heat.
Khan a dytnaak awhkawng thoeng law nawh a dytnaak bai dyna vil hy; a hlawknaak awh ikaw awm thuh thai na am awm hy.
7 The instructions that Yahweh has given us are perfect; they (revive us/give us new strength). We can be sure that the things that Yahweh has told us will never change, and [by learning them] people who have not been previously taught/instructed will become wise.
Bawipa a cawngpyinaak awi taw soep nawh, myihla caih sak pan hy. Bawipa ak awipeek taw ypnaak awm nawh, thlang mailaikhqi awm cyi sak hy.
8 Yahweh’s laws are fair/just; [when we obey them], we become joyful. The commands of Yahweh are clear, and [by reading them] [PRS] we start to understand [how God wants us to behave].
Bawipa am cukkiknaak awi taw dyng nawh, kawlung zeel sak hy. Bawipa ak awipeekkhqi taw caih nawh mik dai sak hy.
9 It is good for people to revere Yahweh; that is something that they will do forever. What Yahweh has decided is fair, and it is always right.
Bawipa kqihnaak taw caih nawh, kumqui dyna cak hy. Bawipa ak awitlyhnaak taw thym nawh dyng boeih hy.
10 The things that God has decided are more valuable than gold, even the finest/purest gold. They are sweeter than honey that drips from honeycombs.
Sui anglakawh a phu tlo nawh, sui a tuicil anglakawh a phu tlo khqoet hy; khawitui anglakawh awi nawh, khawi a lutui anglakawh awm awi khqoet hy.
11 Furthermore, [by reading them] I learn [what things are good to do and what things are evil], and they promise a great reward to [us who] obey them.
Cekkhqi ingkaw tyihzawihkhqi ce ngaihtaaknaak pe nawh; ak ngai ak thlangkhqi taw laksawng ak bau soeih pe hyk ti.
12 But there is no one who can know all his errors [RHQ]; so Yahweh, forgive me for these things which I do that I do not realize are wrong.
A u ing amah a thawlhnaak ce a sim? Ang hyp ka sai thawlhnaak awh qeenkhaw ngai law lah.
13 Keep me from doing things that I know are wrong; do not let my sinful desires control me. If you do that, I will no longer be guilty for committing such sins, and I will not commit the great sin [of rebelling terribly] against you.
Thawlh am ka sainaak ngah ngah aham na tyihzawih ve ni khoem lah; cekkhqi ing koeh ni uk u seh. Cawhtaw coet a kap kaana awm kawng nyng saw, thawlhnaak khawteh anglakawh awm poek poek hawh kawng nyng.
14 O Yahweh, you are [like] an [overhanging] rock [MET] under which I can be safe; you are the one who protects me. I hope/desire that the things that I say and what I think will [always] please you.
Aw Bawipa ka lungnu ingkaw ka hulkung, kam kha awhkaw awi ingkaw kak kawlung khui awhkaw poeknaak ve namik huh awh ym kawina awm seh nyng.
