< Psalms 3 >
1 A Psalm of David, when he fled from Absalom his son. LORD, how are they multiplied that trouble me? many [are] they that rise up against me.
A capa Absalom khae hoi cawnh naah tarik ih David ih Saam laa. Aw Angraeng, kai raihaih paek misanawk loe paroeai pop o! Nihcae loe pop o parai pongah, kai hae misa ah ang suek o.
2 Many [there are] who say of my soul, [There is] no help for him in God. (Selah)
Kaminawk mah, Sithaw mah anih to angsak haih mak ai, tiah ang naa o. (Selah)
3 But thou, O LORD, [art] a shield for me; my glory, and the lifter up of my head.
Toe aw Angraeng, nang loe ka buephaih, ka lensawkhaih ah na oh moe, kai ih lu atoengh tahang kami ah na oh.
4 I cried to the LORD with my voice, and he heard me from his holy hill. (Selah)
Angraeng khaeah tha hoi ka hang naah, anih mah angmah ih kaciim mae nui hoiah ka lok ang pathim. (Selah)
5 I laid me down and slept; I awaked; for the LORD sustained me.
Kang song moe, ka iih; Angraeng mah ang patawnh pongah, kang thawk let.
6 I will not be afraid of ten thousands of people, that have set [themselves] against me on all sides.
Kai takui khoep, ka misa sang hatonawk to ka zii mak ai.
7 Arise, O LORD; save me, O my God: for thou hast smitten all my enemies [upon] the cheek bone; thou hast broken the teeth of the ungodly.
Aw Angraeng, angthawk ah; Aw ka Sithaw, na pahlong ah: ka misanawk ih akam huh to nang boh pae moe, Sithaw panoek ai kaminawk ih haa to nam rosak.
8 Salvation [belongeth] to the LORD: thy blessing [is] upon thy people. (Selah)
Pahlonghaih loe Sithaw ih ni; na tahamhoihaih loe nangmah ih kaminawk nuiah om nasoe. (Selah)
