< Psalms 36 >

1 [Wicked people continually desire to] sin. They consider [IDM] that they do not need to revere God.
Kathutkung: Devit Tamikathoutnaw ni kâtapoenae dawk ka lungthung hoi ka tâcawt e teh, ahnimae mit dawk Cathut takinae banghai awm hoeh.
2 Because they are very proud, they do not think that God will discover their sins and condemn them (OR, they do not think about their sins and hate themselves for it).
A payonnae hmawt hoeh, panuek hoeh telah, a mithmu vah amahoima tamikalan lah a kâsak awh.
3 [Everything] that they say is deceitful and full of lies; they no longer do what is good and are no longer wise.
A dei e lawk teh, thoenae hoi dumnae dueng doeh. Kahawi hno sak hane hoi lungang hane hah a pahnawt awh.
4 While they are lying on their beds, they plan to do things to harm [others]; they are determined to do things that are not good, and they never refuse [to do what is] evil.
A ikhun van hawihoehnae hah a pouk teh, kahawihoehe lamthung thama lahoi a dawn teh, yonnae hah panuet hoeh.
5 Yahweh, your faithful love for us reaches as high as the heavens, you faithfully [do what you have promised]; [it is as though your doing that] extends up to the clouds.
Oe BAWIPA na pahrennae teh kalvan ao teh, yuem na kamcunae ni tâmai koe a pha.
6 Your righteous behavior is [as permanent as] the highest mountains [MET], your acting justly [will continue as long as] the deepest oceans [exist]. You take care of people and you take care of animals.
Na lannae teh kalen e mon patetlah ao teh, na lawkcengnae teh ka dungpoung e tui patetlah ao. Oe BAWIPA, tami hoi saringnaw hah ouk na khetyawt.
7 God, your faithful love for us is very precious. You protect us like birds protect their baby birds under their wings [MET].
Oe Cathut, na lungpatawnae teh banghloimaw a sungren. Hatdawkvah, tami capanaw ni na tâhlip hah a kâuep awh.
8 You provide for us plenty of food from the abundant supply [IDM] that you have; your great blessings for us [flow] like a river.
Na imthung vah, kapap e hnokahawi hoi na boum sak teh, na konawmnae palangtui na nei sak.
9 You are the one who causes everything to live; your light is what enables us to see.
Nang koe vah hringnae tuikhu teh ao. Na angnae dawkvah, angnae hah ka hmu awh.
10 Continue to faithfully love those who have experienced a relationship with you, and bless those who act righteously/justly.
Oe, nang kapanueknaw koe, na lungpatawnae pou awm na seh, lungthin kalannaw koe na lannae kamnuek naseh,
11 Do not allow proud people [SYN] to attack me, or allow wicked people to chase me away.
Kâoupnae khok teh kai taranlahoi tho nahanh seh.
12 Look where evil people have fallen on the ground, defeated; they were thrown down, and they will never rise again.
Haw tueng vah, tamitongthoenaw koung a rawp awh toe. Tâkhawng lah ao awh teh, thaw awh mahoeh toe.
