Psalms 10
1 Why do you stand far off, LORD? Why do you hide yourself in times of trouble?
Aw Bawipa, kawtih ak hla na nang dyih? Kyinaak a awm huiawh kawtih nang thuh qu valh?
2 In arrogance, the wicked hunt down the weak. They are caught in the schemes that they devise.
Ak oek qu soeih thlak che ing tha amak awm thlangkhqi, amah ing teng nawh am tu thlangkhqi ce hquut hy.
3 For the wicked boasts of his heart’s cravings. He blesses the greedy and condemns the LORD.
Ak kawlung hymnaak awh oek qu nawh; ak lawn na ak ngaih ce zoeksang nawh Bawipa taw hlah phlam hy.
4 The wicked, in the pride of his face, has no room in his thoughts for God.
Ak oek qu thlak che ingtaw amah ingkaw amah am sui qu nawh; Ak poeknaak boeih awh Khawsa ham hun qoe am awm hy.
5 His ways are prosperous at all times. He is arrogant, and your laws are far from his sight. As for all his adversaries, he sneers at them.
A lamkhqi boeih awh a zo awm hy. Anaa a hqam aih awh nang a cawngpyinaak awi ing hla qu hy nih; a qaalkhqi boeih ce huhsitnaak ing qaih na hy.
6 He says in his heart, “I shall not be shaken. For generations I shall have no trouble.”
Amah ingtaw, Ikaw ingawm am ning tah sak tikaw; zeel loet nyng saw kyinaak am hu tang tikawng” tinawh poek hy.
7 His mouth is full of cursing, deceit, and oppression. Under his tongue is mischief and iniquity.
Anih am kha taw seet lawhnaak, qaainaak ingkaw kqih am hqinnaak ing be hy, am lai awh awm kyinaak ingkaw seetnaak doek khoeih ni.
8 He lies in wait near the villages. From ambushes, he murders the innocent. His eyes are secretly set against the helpless.
Khawkeng imceng khqi awh ngawi nawh, ak awm poek poek khqi ce mam nawh him hy.
9 He lurks in secret as a lion in his ambush. He lies in wait to catch the helpless. He catches the helpless when he draws him in his net.
Sendeih ing ak kawk khui awhkawng a qeh dym amyihna, a hlip naak awh qeh hy, hulkung amak awm thlang ce tu aham qeh nawh; bawmkung amak awmkhqi ce lawk ing sing hy.
10 The helpless are crushed. They collapse. They fall under his strength.
A thekhanaak thlangkhqi ce kqih am hqin hy; cekkhqi ce ak thaawmnaak khuiawh tlaak sak khqi hy.
11 He says in his heart, “God has forgotten. He hides his face. He will never see it.”
Amah ingtaw Khawsa ing hilh hawh hy; a hai sing khoep nawh am hu thai voel hy” tina poek hy.
12 Arise, LORD! God, lift up your hand! Don’t forget the helpless.
Aw Bawipa, tho hlah! Aw Khawsa na kut thlek hlah, hulkung amak ta thlangkhqi ce koeh hilh.
13 Why does the wicked person condemn God, and say in his heart, “God won’t call me into account”?
Thlak che ing kawtih Bawipa a thekha naak? Ikawtih amah ingkaw amah, “Ikaw am ni tina tang”, tina ak poek hy voei?
14 But you do see trouble and grief. You consider it to take it into your hand. You help the victim and the fatherless.
Cehlai aw Khawsa, kyinaak ingkaw ko kqangnaak ve toek nawhtaw; na kut khuiawh lawh aham poek lah. Kyinaak ak hukhqi ing nang a venawh pe qu unawh, pa amak takhqi ak hulkung na awm hyk ti.
15 Break the arm of the wicked. As for the evil man, seek out his wickedness until you find none.
Thlak chekhqi ingkaw thlak thawlh a baan ce hqem pe nawh; huh thai na ama awm hlan dy awh a thawlhnaak ce tlet pe lah.
16 The LORD is King forever and ever! The nations will perish out of his land.
Bawipa taw kumqui awhkawng kumqui dy sangpahrang na awm hy; pilnam thlangkhqi taw a kut awhkawng kqeng bang kawm uh.
17 LORD, you have heard the desire of the humble. You will prepare their heart. You will cause your ear to hear,
Aw Bawipa, khuikha ak hukhqi a ngaihnaak ce zaak penawh; tha na peek coengawh, cekkhqi ang kqangnaak awi ce ngai pe hyk ti.
18 to judge the fatherless and the oppressed, that man who is of the earth may terrify no more.
Pa amak takhqi ingkaw a thenaak khqi ce dyih pyi nawh, khawmdek thlangkhqi ing cekkhqi ce am huhsit hqa voel hy.
