Psalms 63
1 God, you are the God whom I [worship]. I greatly desire to be with you like [SIL] a person in a dry hot desert greatly desires [some cool water].
Aw Khawsa, nang taw ka Khawsa na na awm dawngawh nang ce ni sui khak nyng; tui a khanaak qamkoh khuiawh, ka hqingnaak ing tui na ni ngaih nawh, ka pum ing na myi kyng na hy.
2 So, I want to see you in your temple; I want to see that you are great and glorious.
Hun cim awh nang ce ni hu hawh nyng saw nak thaawmnaak ingkaw na boeimangnaak ce toek nyng.
3 Your constantly loving [me] is (worth more/more precious) than [my] life, so I [MTY] will [always] praise you.
Na lungnaak ce hqingnaak anglakawh awm a leek khqoet a dawngawh, ka hui ing nang ce nim kyihcah kaw.
4 I will praise you all the time that I live; I will lift up my hands to you while I pray.
Ka hqing khuiawh nang ce nim kyihcah kawng nyng saw, nang ming awh ka kut ve phyl kawng.
5 [Knowing you satisfies me more than] [IDM, MET] my eating a very big feast, [so] I will praise you while I sing [MTY] joyful songs.
Buh ak tui soeih ka phyi amyihna ka hqingnaak ing ak phoen phyi kawmsaw; ka hui ing laa sak doena kam kha ing nang nim kyihcah kaw.
6 While I lie on my bed, I think about you. I think/meditate about you all during the night,
Ka ihkhun awhkawng nang ce ni sim loet kawng nyng saw; than zung namah ce ning ngai kawng.
7 because you have always helped me, and I sing joyfully knowing that I am protected by you [as a little bird is protected] under [its mother’s] wings [MET].
Nang taw ka hulkung na na awm dawngawh, nang hla hlip awh namah kyihcah doena laa sa kawng.
8 I cling to you; and with your hand/power you protect me.
Ka hqingnaak ing namah awh hawi nawh; namah ing nak tangkut ing nim tu hyk ti.
9 But those who are trying to kill me will [die and] descend into the place of the dead;
Kai him aham ak caikhqi ce plawci bit kawm uh; dek a dungnaak khuina nu kun bit kawm uh.
10 they will be killed in battles [MTY] and their [corpses] will be eaten by jackals/wild dogs.
Zawzi ce zawk kawm usaw kqawng ui a buh na coeng bit kawm uh.
11 But I, the king [of Israel], will rejoice in what God has done; and all those who revere and trust God will praise him, but he will not allow liars to say anything.
Cehlai, sangpahrang taw Khawsa awh zeel kaw; Khawsa ang ming phuk doena awi ak kamkhqi ing anih ce kyihcah kawm uh, Cehlai qaai awi ak kqawnkhqi am kha taw sit kaw.
