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].
Kathutkung: Devit, Judah kahrawngum ao navah a sak e la Oe Cathut, nang teh ka Cathut doeh. Amom vah na tawng han. Ka hringnae ni nang na kahran. Ka takthai ni nang na rabui. Kenae hoi tui kahrannae, tui ohoehnae ram dawk kaawm e lah ka o.
2 So, I want to see you in your temple; I want to see that you are great and glorious.
Na bawilennae hmu hanlah, hmuen kathoung thung na tawng toe.
3 Your constantly loving [me] is (worth more/more precious) than [my] life, so I [MTY] will [always] praise you.
Na pahrennae teh hringnae hlak hai a hawihnawn dawkvah, ka pahni hoi ka pholen han.
4 I will praise you all the time that I live; I will lift up my hands to you while I pray.
Hot patetlah ka hringyung thung na pholen han. Na min lahoi ka kut ka dâw han.
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.
Ka hringnae heh rakhing hoi a thaw kaboum lah ca e patetlah a lungkuep han. Hateh, konawm pahni hoi na pholen han.
6 While I lie on my bed, I think about you. I think/meditate about you all during the night,
Ka ikhun dawk hoi ka pouk navah, karumsaning totouh ouk ka pouk.
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].
Bangkongtetpawiteh, nang teh na kabawmkung doeh. Hatdawkvah, na rathei rahim vah ka konawm han.
8 I cling to you; and with your hand/power you protect me.
Ka hringnae ni kahnaicalah na hruiyun teh, nama e aranglae kut hoi na kuet.
9 But those who are trying to kill me will [die and] descend into the place of the dead;
Hatei, ka hringnae thei hanlah katawngnaw teh, adungpoungnae koe talai thung vah a cei awh han.
10 they will be killed in battles [MTY] and their [corpses] will be eaten by jackals/wild dogs.
Tahloi hoi dout awh vaiteh, Asuinaw ni ca hanelah, ao han.
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.
Hatei, siangpahrang teh Cathut dawk konawm vaiteh, Cathut noe laihoi thoekâbo e pueng ni, a pholen awh han. Hatei laithoe kadeinaw e pahninaw teh, tabuem lah ao awh han.
