Psalms 20

1 To the Overseer. — A Psalm of David. Jehovah doth answer thee, In a day of adversity, The name of the God of Jacob doth set thee on high,

Ngaihkyi kawbing na na awm huiawh Bawipa ing nim hlat seitaw; Jacob a Khawsa ang ming ing ni hlip nik chung seh nyng.

2 He doth send thy help from the sanctuary, And from Zion doth support thee,

Ahun caih awhkawng na ham bawmnaak tyi law seitaw Zion awhkawng dylnaak ce ni pe seh nyng.

3 He doth remember all thy presents, And thy burnt-offering doth reduce to ashes. (Selah)

Lucik na sainaak boeih ce sim loet seitaw na hyihphumnaak ce zeel doena do seh nyng.

4 He doth give to thee according to thy heart, And all thy counsel doth fulfil.

Nak kawlung ngaihnaak ce ni pe seitaw nang cainaakkhqi boeih ce coeng sak seh nyng.

5 We sing of thy salvation, And in the name of our God set up a banner. Jehovah doth fulfil all thy requests.

Noengnaak na huh awh zeel doena khy kawng unyng saw ni Khawsa ang ming ing hizan ce hak zoek kawng unyng. Bawipa ing na thoehnaak boeih ce ni pe seh nyng.

6 Now I have known That Jehovah hath saved His anointed, He answereth him from His holy heavens, With the saving might of His right hand.

Bawipa ing ak thlang tyh ce hul hy ti sim hawh nyng; ak tang ben awhkaw hulnaak tha ing ak khan caih nakawng anih ce hlat hy.

7 Some of chariots, and some of horses, And we of the name of Jehovah our God Make mention.

Thlang pynoet ing meqang phleng ypna unawh pynoet ing meqangkhqi ypna uhy, cehlai ningnih ingtaw Bawipa ni khawsa ang ming ce ni ypna uhy.

8 They — they have bowed and have fallen, And we have risen and station ourselves upright.

Cekkhqi ing amim khuk tawk et nawh tlu hlai uhy, ningnih taw ni hang tho unawh ak cak na ning dyi uhy.

9 O Jehovah, save the king, He doth answer us in the day we call!

Aw Bawipa, sangpahqang ve hul lah! Kaimih ing kamik khy awh nim hlat khqi lah!
