Psalms 17
1 A Prayer of David. Hear, O Jehovah, righteousness, attend my cry, Give ear [to] my prayer, without lips of deceit.
O Yahweh Pakai adih thumna a kaka ogin hi nei jahpeh in, katao nahi nei ngaipeh in, lungthengsel le dih tah katao ahi.
2 From before thee my judgment doth go out; Thine eyes do see uprightly.
Kathem chan na neiphondoh peh'in, ajeh chu nangin thudih a natong namuchet ahi.
3 Thou hast proved my heart, Thou hast inspected by night, Thou hast tried me, Thou findest nothing; My thoughts pass not over my mouth.
Nangin kalunggel ho napatep jin, janteng jongle kalungsung navelhaji. Nangin kapum changin neivechillin kathepmo na namupoi; kakamsung jenga jong set na potlou ding ahitai.
4 As to doings of man, Through a word of Thy lips I have observed The paths of a destroyer;
Keiman nathupeh Dan dungjuiin, migilou ho le mi-engseho ho khonung kajui ji poi.
5 To uphold my goings in Thy paths, My steps have not slidden.
Kakalson dan hin nalampi kajui jingin nangma lampia konnin kapotdoh pon ahi.
6 I — I called Thee, for Thou dost answer me, O God, incline Thine ear to me, hear my speech.
Keima nangma komma taova kahi ajeh chu O Elohim Pathen nangin neisanpeh teiding kahei. Kataona hi lunglut tah'in neingaipeh in.
7 Separate wonderfully Thy kindness, O Saviour of the confiding, By Thy right hand, from withstanders.
Nami ngailutna longlou chu kidangtah in neimusah'in, agalmitea konna hoidohna ngaichaho chu nathahatna gimneitah chun nahuh doh ji e.
8 Keep me as the apple, the daughter of the eye; In shadow of Thy wings thou dost hide me.
Nangman namit teni na chintup jing bangin keima jong nei vesuijin. Nalhaving limnoija chun neisellin.
9 From the face of the wicked who spoiled me. Mine enemies in soul go round against me.
Kavel a eidoujing migilouho a kon in eivengtup in, eithatgo kamelma hoa konnin nei huhdoh in.
10 Their fat they have closed up, Their mouths have spoken with pride:
Amahohi mi khotona bei ahiuvin akiletsah nao thucheng chu ngaitan!
11 'Our steps now have compassed [him];' Their eyes they set to turn aside in the land.
Amahon eihin juilutnun eiumkimvel uvin tola selhuh dingin agomkom ahol un ahi.
12 His likeness as a lion desirous to tear, As a young lion dwelling in secret places.
Anehding changlhih le keipi bahkai hangtah bang le keipinou vin gamthip lai matding avetlhih le tobang ahiuve.
13 Arise, O Jehovah, go before his face, Cause him to bend. Deliver my soul from the wicked, Thy sword,
Hung kipat tan O Yahweh Pakai kidintepin lang seplhu jengin! Nachemjammin migilouhoa konnin neihuhdoh in.
14 From men, Thy hand, O Jehovah, From men of the world, their portion [is] in life, And [with] Thy hidden things Thou fillest their belly, They are satisfied [with] sons; And have left their abundance to their sucklings.
O Yahweh Pakai naban thathatnin vannoia ama phatchomna ngaito hohi sumangin. Amavang nangma goulu hohi nangman vah va jing in. Achateu neijong suhnengpeh inlang ason apahteu goulo ding geija adalhah peh theina diuvin gontoh peh'in.
15 I — in righteousness, I see Thy face; I am satisfied, in awaking, [with] Thy form!
Monabeija hinkho Kaman jeh a namel kamu teiding ahi. Kathodoh tengleh nangma toh kimaitoa ikimuto ding chule kalungnachim tante.
