Psalms 27
1 Yahweh is the one who gives light [to my soul/spirit] and the one who saves me, so I do not [RHQ] need to be afraid of anyone. Yahweh is the one to whom I go for refuge, so I will never be afraid.
Bawipa taw ka maihchoei ingkaw ka hulnaak na awm hy - u nu kak kqih bai kaw? Bawipa taw ka hqingnaak vawngcak na awm hy - u nu kak kqih re bai kaw?
2 When those who do evil come near me to attack me, they stumble and fall down.
Ka sa daih aham thlak chekhqi ing ni pan unawh ka qaalkhqi ingkaw ka thunkhakhqi ing amim tu awh ce bah kawm usaw tlu kawm uh.
3 [Even] if an army surrounds me, I [SYN] will not be afraid. [Even] if they attack me, I will trust [in God].
Qalkap ing nik chung khoep seiawm, kak kawlung am thyn qoe tikaw; tangboek ing ni boeng qoe seiawm kak kawlung yp khak kaw.
4 There is one thing that I have requested from Yahweh; this is the one thing that I desire: That I may worship in Yahweh’s house/temple every day of my life, and see that Yahweh is wonderful and inquire [what he wants me to do].
Bawipa venawh ik-oeih pynoet doeng thoeh nyng, ka thoeh taw veni; ka hqing khui pyt Bawipa im awh awm aham ingkaw Bawipa a myi daw soeih ce toek doena a bawkim khuiawh amah sui ve doeng ni.
5 He will protect me when I have troubles; he will keep me safe in his Sacred Tent. He will set me safely (on a high rock/in a secure place).
Ikawtih kyinaak ka um awh ce a awmnaak hun awh kai ce ngaihding cana ni awm sak kaw; a hizan im awmnaak khuiawh ni thuh kawmsaw lungnu awh ce ak sang na nim hawih kaw.
6 Then I will triumph over [IDM] my enemies. I will shout joyfully as I offer sacrifices in his Sacred Tent, and I will praise Yahweh as I sing.
Cawhtaw kai anik chung khoep ka qaalkhqik khanawh ka luu ve zoeksang kaw; a hizan im awh zeel doena khy nawh lucik nawn nyng saw; Bawipa kyihcah ing laa sa hawh kawng nyng.
7 Yahweh, listen to me while I pray. Be kind to me and answer my prayer.
Aw Bawipa, ka nik khy awh ce kak awi ngai law lah; nim qeen nawhtaw nim hlat lah.
8 I sensed that I heard you say, “Come and worship me [IDM],” so, Yahweh, I will worship you.
Kak kawlung ing “A haai sui lah!” ni tina hy. Bawipa nang haai ni ka sui hly.
9 I am your servant; Do not be angry with me and turn away from me. You have always helped me. You are the one who has saved me, so do not abandon me [now].
Na haai ce koeh thuh valh nawh, na tyihzawih ve koeh mang taak; nang taw kai anik bawmkung ni. Aw Khawsa ka hulkung, koeh ni qoeng nawhtaw koeh ni cen taak.
10 [Even] if my father and mother desert me, you will take care of [IDM] me.
Ka pa ingkaw ka nu ing ni cehta seiawm, Bawipa ing ni do ngai kaw.
11 Yahweh, teach me to do what you want me to do, and lead me on a safe path because I have many enemies.
Aw Bawipa, na lam ce ni cawng sak nawh; kai anik thekhanaakkhqi awh na lap dyng awh ni sawi lah.
12 Do not allow my enemies to do to me what they want; they say many false things about me and [threaten to do] violent things to me.
Ka qaalkhqi ngaihnaak awh kai ce koeh ni pe, amak thym dyihthingkhqi ing ni thawh sih unawh, amak leek ben awi ce amik kqawn a dawngawh.
13 But I know that because I trust in you you will be good to me as long as I live.
Ka hqingnaak qam awh ve Bawipa a leeknaak hu ngai kawng tinawh yp qu na mang kang nyng.
14 So trust in Yahweh, [all of you]! Be strong and courageous, and wait expectantly for him [to help you]!
Bawipa mah qeh lah; kawlung cak doena nak tha awm sak nawh, Bawipa mah qeh lah.
