Psalms 9
1 For the Chief Musician. Set to “The Death of the Son.” A Psalm by David. I will give thanks to the LORD with my whole heart. I will tell of all your marvellous works.
Aw Bawipa, kak kawlung boeih ing nang nim kyih vang; kawpoek kyi ik-oeih na sai boeih ce khypyi vang nyng.
2 I will be glad and rejoice in you. I will sing praise to your name, O Most High.
Namah awh ce kaw zeel nawh, awm kawng. Aw, sawsang soeih, nang ming kyihcahnaak laa sa vang.
3 When my enemies turn back, they stumble and perish in your presence.
Ka qaalkhqi taw na haiawh bah unawh; seet doena ami huna hlat tlaih uhy.
4 For you have maintained my just cause. You sit on the throne judging righteously.
Kak cangnaak awhtaw nang ing ning dyih pyi nawh; na ngawihdoelh awh ngawi nawh, ak dyng cana awi deng hyk ti.
5 You have rebuked the nations. You have destroyed the wicked. You have blotted out their name forever and ever.
Pilnam thlangkhqi ce toel nawh, thlak chekhqi ce milh sak khqi hyk ti; cekkhqi ang ming ce kumqui dyna khawng pe hyk ti.
6 The enemy is overtaken by endless ruin. The very memory of the cities which you have overthrown has perished.
Amak dyt thai seetnaak ing qaalkhqi ce zawl nawh, cekkhqi a khawk bau ce hqe pe pheng hawh hyk ti; ami sim loetnaak awm hqe pek khqi boeih hawh hyk ti.
7 But the LORD reigns forever. He has prepared his throne for judgement.
Bawipa taw kumqui dyna boei na awm hy; awidengnaak aham a boei ngawihdoelh ce caksak hawh hy.
8 He will judge the world in righteousness. He will administer judgement to the peoples in uprightness.
Khawmdek ve ak dyng cana awi deng kawmsaw; thlangkhqi ce ak thym cana uk kaw.
9 The LORD will also be a high tower for the oppressed; a high tower in times of trouble.
Bawipa taw thekha na ak awmkhqi ang dymnaak na awm nawh, kyinaak a awm tym awh ce vawng cak na awm hy.
10 Those who know your name will put their trust in you, for you, LORD, have not forsaken those who seek you.
Nang ming ak simkhqi ing nang ce ni ypna uhy. Bawipa, nang ingtaw nang anik suikhqi ce am qoeng hyt hyk ti.
11 Sing praises to the LORD, who dwells in Zion, and declare amongst the people what he has done.
Zion awh boei na ak ngawi Bawipa venawh kyihnaak laa sa unawh, a ik-oeih sai ce pilnam thlangkhqi venawh khypyi lah uh.
12 For he who avenges blood remembers them. He doesn’t forget the cry of the afflicted.
Ikawtih, thlang thi a lawng sak ce sim loet nawh; khawdeng khuikha khqi ing kqangnaak awi ce ang zaak peek kaana am awm hy.
13 Have mercy on me, LORD. See my affliction by those who hate me, and lift me up from the gates of death,
Aw Bawipa, ka qaalkhqi ing ani thekhanaak khqi ve toek lah! Nim qeen nawh thihnaak chawmkeng khui awhkawng ni hqui lah.
14 that I may show all of your praise. I will rejoice in your salvation in the gates of the daughter of Zion.
Cawhtaw na kyihcahnaak laa ce Zion canu ak chawmkeng awh khypyi thai kawng nyng saw, na hulnaak awh ce zeelnaak awm kaw.
15 The nations have sunk down in the pit that they made. In the net which they hid, their own foot is taken.
Pilnam thlangkhqi ing amik cawh lawk-kqawng khuiawh tla boeih uhy; a mimah ing ami zan hyt lawk awh aawk boeih uhy.
16 The LORD has made himself known. He has executed judgement. The wicked is snared by the work of his own hands. (Meditation, Selah)
Am dyngnaak awh ce Bawipa taw sim lah uh; cehlai thlak chekhqi taw a mimah a kut sai awh ce aawk nawn uhy.
Khawsa ak hilh pilnam thlangkhqi ingkaw thlak chekhqi ingtaw phyi na ce cet kawm uh. (Sheol h7585)
18 For the needy shall not always be forgotten, nor the hope of the poor perish forever.
Ak voethlauh thlangkhqi ce am hilh kawmsaw, khawdeng thlangkhqi ang ngaih-unaak awm am reng tikaw.
19 Arise, LORD! Don’t let man prevail. Let the nations be judged in your sight.
Aw Bawipa, tho lah, thlanghqing ing koeh ni noeng seh; na haiawh pilnam thlang awideng na awm u seh.
20 Put them in fear, LORD. Let the nations know that they are only men. (Selah)
Aw Bawipa, cekkhqi ce kqihnaak ing ly a lap sak khqi lah; pilnam boeih ve thlanghqing mai ni ti sim sak lah.
