< Psalms 3 >
1 A Psalm of David, in his fleeing from the face of Absalom his son. Jehovah, how have my distresses multiplied! Many are rising up against me.
Aw Bawipa, ka qaalkhqi doem soeih mah hy! Kai qaal na anik thawh sihkhqi doem soeih hy!
2 Many are saying of my soul, 'There is no salvation for him in God.' (Selah)
Khawsa ing am hul tang” tinawh thlang khawzah ing ni tina uhy.
3 And Thou, O Jehovah, [art] a shield for me, My honour, and lifter up of my head.
Bawipa, nang taw kai anik hlipkung phuhqa na awm hyk ti, kak khanawh boeimangnaak ce ni pe nawh ka luu ni zoek pe hyk ti.
4 My voice [is] unto Jehovah: I call: And He answereth me from his holy hill, (Selah)
Bawipa venawh khawteh na khy nyng saw, anih ing a hun ciim awhkawng nim hlat pehy.
5 I — I have lain down, and I sleep, I have waked, for Jehovah sustaineth me.
Nung zaih nawh ip nyng; Bawipa ing a nimtu khak a dawngawh hang hqyng law tlaih bai nyng.
6 I am not afraid of myriads of people, That round about they have set against me.
Qaal thonghqa ing hu hai na nik en khoep bai seiawm ap kqih qoe kawng nyng.
7 Rise, O Jehovah! save me, my God. Because Thou hast smitten All mine enemies [on] the cheek. The teeth of the wicked Thou hast broken.
Aw Bawipa tho lah! ka Khawsa nang ing ni hul lah! Ka qaalkhqi a kapkhe quh ce vyk pek khqi nawhtaw, thlak chekhqi a haa ce khoeng pek khqi lah.
8 Of Jehovah [is] this salvation; On Thy people [is] Thy blessing! (Selah)
Hulnaak taw Bawipa ven awhkawng law hy. Nak thlangkhqik khanawh na zosennaak awm seh nyng.
