< Psalms 81 >
1 To the Overseer. — 'On the Gittith.' By Asaph. Cry aloud to God our strength, Shout to the God of Jacob.
Aka mawt ham Asaph kah Gittith Mamih kah sarhi Pathen taengah tamhoe uh lamtah Jakob Pathen taengah yuhui uh lah.
2 Lift up a song, and give out a timbrel, A pleasant harp with psaltery.
Oldi te phoh uh lamtah kamrhing rhotoeng neh dingsuek thangpa tum uh.
3 Blow in the month a trumpet, In the new moon, at the day of our festival,
Hlasae, hlalum vaengkah mamih khotue hnin ah tuki te ueng uh lah.
4 For a statute to Israel it [is], An ordinance of the God of Jacob.
Hekah he Israel ham Jakob Pathen kah laitloeknah oltlueh coeng ni.
5 A testimony on Joseph He hath placed it, In his going forth over the land of Egypt. A lip, I have not known — I hear.
Ka yakming mueh ol, Egypt kho la a caeh vaengah Joseph ham a khueh olphong ni.
6 From the burden his shoulder I turned aside, His hands from the basket pass over.
A laengpang dongkah hnorhih te ka khoe pah tih a kut khaw voh khui lamkah loeih.
7 In distress thou hast called and I deliver thee, I answer thee in the secret place of thunder, I try thee by the waters of Meribah. (Selah)
Citcai khuiah nan khue tih nang kan pumcum sak. Khohum hlip lamkah nang kan doo tih Meribah tui ah nang kan loep kan dak. (Selah)
8 Hear, O My people, and I testify to thee, O Israel, if thou dost hearken to me:
Ka pilnam loh hnatun lamtah kai ol te na hnatun atah Israel nang taengah ka laipai ni.
9 There is not in thee a strange god, And thou bowest not thyself to a strange god.
Na khuiah rhalawt pathen om boel saeh lamtah kholong pathen te bawk boeh.
10 I [am] Jehovah thy God, Who bringeth thee up out of the land of Egypt. Enlarge thy mouth, and I fill it.
Kai tah Egypt kho lamkah nang aka doek na Pathen Yahweh ni. Na ka ang lamtah kan hah sak eh.
11 But, My people hearkened not to My voice, And Israel hath not consented to Me.
Tedae ka pilnam loh ka ol he ya pawt tih Israel loh kai taengah naep pawh.
12 And I send them away in the enmity of their heart, They walk in their own counsels.
Te dongah amih te lungbuei thinthahnah taengla ka hlah tih amih kah cilkhih dongah pongpa uh.
13 O that My people were hearkening to Me, Israel in My ways would walk.
Ka pilnam loh kai taengah hnatang koinih ka longpuei te Israel loh a vai sui dae.
14 As a little thing their enemies I cause to bow, And against their adversaries I turn back My hand,
A thunkha rhoek te a loe la ka kunyun sak vetih a rhal te ka kut neh ka thuung pah suidae.
15 Those hating Jehovah feign obedience to Him, But their time is — to the age.
BOEIPA kah a lunguet rhoek loh anih taengah mai a tum uh vetih amih kah khohnin khaw kumhal duela puh suidae.
16 He causeth him to eat of the fat of wheat, And [with] honey from a rock I satisfy thee!
Tedae cang tha te anih a cah suitih lungpang khui lamkah khoitui nang kang kum sak sue.
