Psalms 61

1 To the Overseer, on stringed instruments. — By David. Hear, O God, my loud cry, attend to my prayer.

Katoeng kruek zaehoikung hanah. Neginah ah sak koi David ih Saam laa. Aw Sithaw, ka qahhaih lok hae tahngai ah loe, lawk ka thuihaih hae tahngai ah.

2 From the end of the land unto Thee I call, In the feebleness of my heart, Into a rock higher than I Thou dost lead me.

Palungthin thazok naah, long boenghaih hoiah nang to kang kawk; kai pongah kasang kue lungsong khaeah na caeh haih ah.

3 For Thou hast been a refuge for me, A tower of strength because of the enemy.

Nang loe ka buephaih ah na oh moe, ka misanawk hmaa ah sipae kacak ah na oh.

4 I sojourn in Thy tent to the ages, I trust in the secret place of Thy wings. (Selah)

Nang ih kahni im ah dungzan khoek to ka oh han; na pakhraeh tahlip ah ka buep han. (Selah)

5 For Thou, O God, hast hearkened to my vows, Thou hast appointed the inheritance Of those fearing Thy name.

Aw Sithaw, ka sak ih lokkamhaih nang thaih pae boeh; na hmin zii kaminawk ih qawk to nang paek boeh.

6 Days to the days of the king Thou addest, His years as generation and generation.

Siangpahrang to hinglung sawksak ah loe, boeng thai ai ah dungzan khoek to caksak poe ah.

7 He dwelleth to the age before God, Kindness and truth appoint — they keep him.

Anih loe Sithaw hmaa ah dungzan khoek to om nasoe loe, tahmenhaih hoi loktang lok mah, anih to ohhaih poe nasoe.

8 So do I praise Thy name for ever, When I pay my vows day by day!

To naah na hmin pakoehhaih laa to ka sak poe moe, lok ka maihaih to ni thokkruek ka sak han.
