Psalms 11

1 To the Overseer. — By David. In Jehovah I trusted, how say ye to my soul, 'They moved [to] Thy mountain for the bird?

Katoeng kruek zaehoikung hanah, David ih Saam laa. Kai loe Angraeng khaeah ni kam ha: tipongah, Tavaa baktiah nangmah ih mae ah azawk lai ah, tiah ka muithla hanah na naa loe?

2 For lo, the wicked tread a bow, They have prepared their arrow on the string, To shoot in darkness at the upright in heart.

Khenah, kasae kami loe kalii to takoih moe, katoeng kaminawk palung thuem ah kah hanah, anghawk o moe, kalii qui nuiah palaa to koeng o coek boeh.

3 When the foundations are destroyed, The righteous — what hath he done?

Nihcae angdoethaih ahmuen to paro pae ving nahaeloe, katoeng kami loe timaw sah thai tih boeh?

4 'Jehovah [is] in his holy temple: Jehovah — in the heavens [is] His throne. His eyes see — His eyelids try the sons of men.

Angraeng loe kaciim tempul thungah oh moe, Angraeng ih angraeng tangkhang loe van ah oh: kami capanawk to mik hoiah a khet moe, a mikhin hoiah nihcae to tanoek.

5 Jehovah the righteous doth try. And the wicked and the lover of violence, Hath His soul hated,

Angraeng mah katoeng kami to tanoek: toe anih ih muithla mah loe kasae hoi poeksae kaminawk to hnukma.

6 He poureth on the wicked snares, fire, and brimstone, And a horrible wind [is] the portion of their cup.

Anih mah kasae kaminawk nuiah hmai kamngaeh, kaat hmai hoi angbaeh thlung kamngaeh hoi kabae parai takhi kasae to krahsak tih, hae loe nihcae naek han koi taham ah om tih.

7 For righteous [is] Jehovah, Righteousness He hath loved, The upright doth His countenance see!'

Angraeng loe toeng pongah, toenghaih to koeh; katoeng kaminawk loe anih ih mikhmai to hnu o tih.
