Psalms 71
1 Yahweh, I have come to you to (get refuge/be protected); never allow me to become ashamed [because of being defeated].
O Yahweh Pakai eihuhdoh ding ngaichan na kom kahinbel e.
2 Because you always do what is right, help me and rescue me; listen to me, and save me!
Neihuhhing in lang neihuhdoh in, ajeh chu nangma adih na hi, na kol hinsung'in lang ka sei neingaipeh in, chule neichamlhatsah in.
3 Be [like an overhanging] rock [MET] under which I [can be] safe/protected; [be like] a strong fortress in which I am safe [DOU]. You [continually] command (OR, [Continually] command) [your angels] to rescue me.
Ka kisel jing theina din kahoidam na songpi hijing in. Keima huhhing ka chan theina ding'in thu peh chu pen, nangma ka songpi le ka kiselna na hi.
4 God, rescue me from wicked [people], from the power of unjust and evil men.
Ka Pathen Elohim, miphalouho thaneina a kon'in neihuhdoh in, eibolse a mi engbolseho'a kon'in neihuhdoh in.
5 Yahweh, my Lord, you are the one whom I confidently expect [to help me]; I have trusted in you since I was young.
O Yahweh Pakai nangbou ka kinepna na hi, O Yahweh Pakai nangma hi ka chapan laiya pat'a ka hin tahsan na hi tai.
6 I have depended on you all my life; you have taken care of me [IDM] since the day that I was born, [so] I will always praise you.
Henge, ka pen'a pat nang'in neina umpi jing in, ka nu naobu sung'a ka kijil'a pat'a neina chintuppat ahitai, hijeh a nangma ka thangvah jing hi datmo ding ahipoi.
7 The manner in which I have conducted my life has been an example to many [people], because [they realize that] you have been my strong defender.
Ka hinkho hi mitamtah din kihilna thei ahi, ajeh chu nangma hi ka thahatna le ka kiselna na hi.
8 I praise you all day long, and I proclaim that you are glorious/wonderful.
Hijeh a chu nangma ka thangvah chim theilou na hi; Nilhum kei kei a hi na loupina ka phondoh jing ahi.
9 Now, when I have become an old man, do not reject/abandon me; do not abandon me now, when I am not strong any more.
Tua, ka tehphat hin neipaidpoh hih in. Ka tha'n ajolou teng neinungsun hih in.
10 My enemies say [that they want to kill] me; they plan together [how they can do that].
Ka melmate hi keima douna di'n akihoutoh tauve. Amaho hin thadoh ding eigo tauvin ahi.
11 They say [about me], “God has abandoned him; so now we can pursue him and seize him, because there is no one who will rescue him.”
Amahon, “Elohim Pathen in anungsun tai che'u hitin gaman'u hite ajeh chu tuahi koiman apanpi lou ding ahi” atiuve.
12 God, do not stay far away from me; hurry to help me!
O Elohim Pathen, munchom a potdoh hih in, Pathen ka Elohim neihung panpi loi in.
13 Cause those who (accuse me/say that I have done things that are wrong) to be defeated and destroyed; cause those who want to harm me to be shamed and disgraced.
Keima eihehseho hi sunem'in lang sumang jeng in, keima eibolsenomho hi sujum'in lang jachatsah in.
14 But [as for me], I will continually and confidently expect [you to do great things for me], and I will praise you more and more.
Keima vang neikithopi ding'a kinem jing ding ka hi; Keiman nangma ka thangvahbe jing ding na hi.
15 I will tell people that you do what is right; all day long I will tell people how you have saved me, although what you have done is more than I can fully understand.
Keiman nangma chonphatnaho hi mijouse ka seipeh ding ahi. Keima thusei them hihih jong leng na mihuhhingna thahatna hi nilhumkei kei a ka phondoh jing ding ahi.
16 Yahweh, my Lord, I will praise you for your mighty deeds; I will proclaim that only you always act justly.
O Yahweh Pakai thaneichungnung, keiman na thilbol nasatah tahho jeh a ka thangvah ding na hi. Thudih choija nangma bou na hi hi keiman mijouse ka seipeh ding ahi.
17 God, you have taught me [many/those things] ever since I was young, and I still tell people about your wonderful deeds.
O Elohim Pathen nang'in ka chapanlai a pat'a neinahil ahitai. Ken jong na thilbol kidangho hi midangho ka seipeh jing ding ahi.
18 And now, God, when I am old and my hair is gray, do not abandon me. [Stay with me] while I continue to proclaim to my children and grandchildren [HYP] that you are [very] powerful!
Tunvang keima ka tehtan ka sam akang tai neinungsun hih in. Tu khangthahte lah a hin na thaneina hi samphong lengnge. Kei nung'a hung ding miho lah a jong na thilbol datmo umtahho jong phongdoh ing kate.
19 God, you do many righteous deeds; [it is as though] they extend up to the sky. You have done great things; there is no one like you [RHQ].
O Elohim Pathen na chonphatna hi van sangpenho lah jong aphapeh e. O Elohim Pathen na thilbol kidangtahho hi koitoh na kitekahpi thei ding ham?
20 You have caused me to have many troubles and to suffer much, [but] you will cause me to become strong again; when I am almost dead [HYP], you will keep me alive.
Hahsatna nasatah tah neithohsah in ahinlah nang'in ka hinkho na kiledohsah ding ahi'n chule lhan lah a kon'in jong neikaidoh in.
21 You will cause me to be greatly honored and you will encourage/comfort me again.
Nang'in lolhinna sangjo cheh a jong neikiledohsah ding avel'a neihin lhamon ding ahi.
22 I will also praise you [while I play] my harp; I will praise you, my God, for faithfully [doing what you have promised to do]. I will play hymns to praise you, the holy God whom [we] Israelis [worship].
Hiteng chuleh keiman semjangsaito tho'a nangma ka thangvah ding ahi, ajeh chu O Elohim Pathen nangma na kitepna a na thon ngaipoi.
23 I [SYN] will shout joyfully while I play [the harp] for you; with my entire inner being I will sing because you have rescued me.
Keiman nangma thangvahna la hi kipah tah'a thongleuva ka sah ding ahi, ajeh chu nang in neihunglhatdoh tan ahi.
24 All day long I will tell people that you act righteously, because those who wanted to harm me will have been defeated and disgraced.
Keiman nangma thilphabolho hi sun nilhum a ka seiphongle ding ahi, ajeh chu keima eibolsego chun jachatna le jumna atoh tauvin ahi.
