Psalms 58
1 For the Chief Musician. To the tune of “Do Not Destroy.” A poem by David. Do you indeed speak righteousness, silent ones? Do you judge blamelessly, you sons of men?
Aka mawt ham David kah, “Phae boeh “laa Duengnah he olmueh na ti uh tih, hlang ca rhoek taengah vanatnah neh lai na tloek uh tang a?
2 No, in your heart you plot injustice. You measure out the violence of your hands in the earth.
Tedae, lungbuei neh dumlai na saii. Diklai ah kuthlahnah te na kut dongah na thuek.
3 The wicked go astray from the womb. They are wayward as soon as they are born, speaking lies.
Halang rhoek tah bung khui lamloh kholong uh coeng tih, laithae aka thui rhoek khaw a bungko khui lamloh kho a hmang uh.
4 Their poison is like the poison of a snake, like a deaf cobra that stops its ear,
Amih kah kosi te rhul sue phek la om tih minta hnapang bangla a hna a buem.
5 which doesn’t listen to the voice of charmers, no matter how skillful the charmer may be.
Te vaengah aka hloih thai rhoek loh a hloih vaengkah a sisuk ol te ya pawh.
6 Break their teeth, God, in their mouth. Break out the great teeth of the young lions, LORD.
Pathen aw, amih ka dongkah a no te koengloeng pah. BOEIPA aw sathueng kah kamkenno te thuk pah.
7 Let them vanish like water that flows away. When they draw the bow, let their arrows be made blunt.
Amih te tui aka long bangla yip kak uh saeh. Thaltang, thaltang a phuk te haih pah tangloeng saeh.
8 Let them be like a snail which melts and passes away, like the stillborn child, who has not seen the sun.
Hnap neh aka thoeih lainat neh huta aka rhumpu bangla khomik hmu uh boel saeh.
9 Before your pots can feel the heat of the thorns, he will sweep away the green and the burning alike.
Na umam loh a yakming uh hlan ah cangpalam loh a yawn bangla hling khaw, thinghing khaw thingkoh khaw yawn saeh.
10 The righteous shall rejoice when he sees the vengeance. He shall wash his feet in the blood of the wicked,
Phulohnah a hmuh vaengah hlang dueng loh a kohoe vetih halang kah thii neh a kho a silh ni.
11 so that men shall say, “Most certainly there is a reward for the righteous. Most certainly there is a God who judges the earth.”
Te vaengah pilnam loh, “Aka dueng ham thapang om pai. Diklai ah Pathen loh lai a tloek pai,” a ti ni.
