Psalms 10
1 Why, Jehovah, dost Thou stand at a distance? Thou dost hide in times of adversity,
Kathutkung: Panuekhoeh Oe BAWIPA, bangkongmaw ahlanae koe na kangdue. Bangkongmaw runae tueng nah na kâhro.
2 Through the pride of the wicked, Is the poor inflamed, They are caught in devices that they devised.
Tamikathoutnaw ni kâoupnae lahoi tami karoedengnaw hah a rektap awh. A sak awh e ni amamouh letlang man naseh.
3 Because the wicked hath boasted Of the desire of his soul, And a dishonest gainer he hath blessed, He hath despised Jehovah.
Tamikathoutnaw teh amamae lungngainae dawk ouk a kâoup awh. Kahounlounnaw ni BAWIPA a hnoun awh teh, a dudam awh.
4 The wicked according to the height of his face, inquireth not. 'God is not!' [are] all his devices.
Tamikathoutnaw ni kâoupnae lahoi Cathut tawng ngai awh hoeh. A pouknae dawkvah, Cathut awm hoeh ati awh.
5 Pain do his ways at all times, On high [are] Thy judgments before him, All his adversaries — he puffeth at them.
Lawkcengnae teh ahni hoi ahla arasang dawkvah, a tarannaw pueng hah a dudam.
6 He hath said in his heart, 'I am not moved,' To generation and generation not in evil.
A lungthung hoi, kâhuen mahoeh, nâtuek hai runae kâhmo mahoeh telah a pouk.
7 Of oaths his mouth is full, And deceits, and fraud: Under his tongue [is] perverseness and iniquity,
A pahni teh thoebonae, dumnae hoi repcoungroenae lawk hoi akawi. A lai rahim vah runae hoi payonnae teh ao.
8 He doth sit in an ambush of the villages, In secret places he doth slay the innocent. His eyes for the afflicted watch secretly,
Kho tangkuem lampawp koe a tahung teh, tami ni hmuhoehnae koe yonnae ka tawn hoeh e naw hah a thei awh. Tami ka roedeng e hah arulahoi a pawp awh.
9 He lieth in wait in a secret place, as a lion in a covert. He lieth in wait to catch the poor, He catcheth the poor, drawing him into his net.
Sendek ni a kâkhu dawk hoi a pawp e patetlah arulahoi tami ouk a pawp. Tami ka roedeng hah man hanlah a pawp. A tamlawk hoi a sawn toteh tami ka roedeng a kâman.
10 He is bruised — he boweth down, Fallen by his mighty ones hath the afflicted.
Hottelah, karoedengnaw hah a thaonae lahoi rawp sak nahanlah, ka rahnoumca lah a tabo awh.
11 He said in his heart, 'God hath forgotten, He hath hid His face, He hath never seen.'
A lungthung hoi, Cathut ni a pahnim toe. A minhmai hai a hro toe. Nâtuek hai hmawt mahoeh toe telah a pouk.
12 Arise, O Jehovah! O God, lift up Thy hand! Forget not the humble.
Oe BAWIPA, thaw haw. Oe Cathut, na kut dâw haw. Kârahnoumnaw hah pahnim hanh.
13 Wherefore hath the wicked despised God? He hath said in his heart, 'It is not required.'
Bangkongmaw tamikathoutnaw ni Cathut banglahai a noutna awh hoeh. A lungthung hoi, banglah pouk mahoeh ouk ati awh.
14 Thou hast seen, For Thou perverseness and anger beholdest; By giving into Thy hand, On Thee doth the afflicted leave [it], Of the fatherless Thou hast been an helper.
Hateiteh, lungreithai hoi runae teh na pakhingpalang teh, na kut hoi moipathung hanlah na hmu toe. Karoedengnaw, teh nang koe a kâhnawng awh teh, nang teh, na pa ka tawn hoeh naw kabawmkung lah na o.
15 Break the arm of the wicked and the evil, Seek out his wickedness, find none;
Tamikathoutnaw hoi tamikayonnaw e kut hah khoe pouh nateh, ceitakhai e awm laipalah, hawihoehnae pueng koung pâphue pouh haw.
16 Jehovah [is] king to the age, and for ever, The nations have perished out of His land!
BAWIPA teh a yungyoe hoi a yungyoe totouh siangpahrang doeh. A ram thung hoi miphunnaw koung a kahma awh.
17 The desire of the humble Thou hast heard, O Jehovah. Thou preparest their heart; Thou causest Thine ear to attend,
Repcoungroe e hoi na pa ka tawn hoeh naw koevah, kângingnae sak hanelah, talai taminaw ni repcoungroe hoeh nahanelah,
18 To judge the fatherless and bruised: He addeth no more to oppress — man of the earth!
BAWIPA, kârahnoumnaw e ngainae teh na panue teh, ahnimouh lawkceng hanelah na hnâ teh na pakeng pouh.
