Psalms 138

1 By David. I confess Thee, with all my heart, Before the gods I do praise Thee.

David ih Saam laa. Aw Angraeng, palungthin boih hoiah nang to kang pakoeh han; sithawnawk hmaa ah nang pakoehhaih laa to ka sak han.

2 I bow myself toward Thy holy temple, And I confess Thy name, For Thy kindness, and for Thy truth, For Thou hast made great Thy saying above all Thy name.

Kaciim na tempul bang khet hoiah nang to kang bok moe, nam lunghaih hoi na oepthohhaih pongah na hmin to ka pakoeh han; nangmah ih ahmin rang hoiah na lok to hmuennawk boih pong kasang kue ah nam tuengsak boeh.

3 In the day I called, when Thou dost answer me, Thou dost strengthen me in my soul [with] strength.

Kang kawkhaih niah kai han nang pathim moe, palung thungah tha nang ohsak.

4 O Jehovah, all kings of earth confess Thee, When they have heard the sayings of Thy mouth.

Aw Angraeng, long nui ih siangpahrangnawk boih mah na thuih ih lok to thaih o naah, nang to saphaw o tih.

5 And they sing in the ways of Jehovah, For great [is] the honour of Jehovah.

Ue, Angraeng lensawkhaih loe len parai pongah, Angraeng ih loklamnawk to pazui o ueloe, laa to sah o tih.

6 For high [is] Jehovah, and the lowly He seeth, And the haughty from afar He knoweth.

Angraeng loe hmuensang ah oh; toe poeknaemhaih tawn kaminawk to anih mah khet; amoek kaminawk loe ahmuen kangthla hoiah anih mah panoek boeh.

7 If I walk in the midst of distress Thou quickenest me, Against the anger of mine enemies Thou sendest forth Thy hand, And Thy right hand doth save me.

Raihaih thungah caeh cadoeh, nang hingsak tih; ka misanawk palungphuihaih to pakaa hanah na ban to payangh ueloe, na bantang ban hoiah na pahlong tih.

8 Jehovah doth perfect for me, O Jehovah, Thy kindness [is] to the age, The works of Thy hands let not fall!

Angraeng mah sak atimhaih to kai hanah akoepsak tih; Aw Angraeng; na tahmenhaih loe dungzan khoek to cak; na ban hoi sak ih hmuennawk to pahnawt sut hmah.
