Tingtoeng 4
1 [Rhotoeng neh aka mawt ham David kah Tingtoenglung] Ka duengnah Pathen te ka khue vaengah ka taengah nan doo tih, rhal khui lamkah kai te nan voelphoeng sak. Kai n'rhen lamtah ka thangthuinah he han ya lah.
For the chief musician; on stringed instruments. A psalm of David. Answer me when I call, God of my righteousness; give me room when I am hemmed in. Have mercy on me and listen to my prayer.
2 Hlang capa rhoek aw, kai thangpomnah te me hil nim mingthae la a om ve? A poeyoek te nim na lungnah uh vetih, laithae nim na tlap uh eh? (Selah)
You people, how long will you turn my honor into shame? How long will you love that which is worthless and seek after lies? (Selah)
3 Te dongah BOEIPA loh hlangcim te amah ham a hoep tila ming lah. Amah te ka khue vaengah, BOEIPA loh a yaak ni.
But know that Yahweh sets apart the godly for himself. Yahweh will hear when I call to him.
4 Na tlai nen khaw tholh uh boeh. Na thinko neh na thingkong dongah thui lamtah kuemsuem lah. (Selah)
Tremble in fear, but do not sin! Meditate in your heart on your bed and be silent. (Selah)
5 Duengnah hmueih te nawn lamtah BOEIPA dongah pangtung lah.
Offer the sacrifices of righteousness and put your trust in Yahweh.
6 Ulae kaimih a then aka tueng thai eh aka ti khaw yet. Aw BOEIPA na maelhmai kah a aa neh, kaimih soah han tue lah.
Many say, “Who will show us anything good?” Yahweh, lift up the light of your face on us.
7 Cangpai neh misur thai a thawt tue vaengkah lakah ka lungbuei ah kohoenah nan paek.
You have given my heart more gladness than others have when their grain and new wine abound.
8 BOEIPA nang bueng daengloh, kai he ngaikhuek la kho nan sak sak dongah, ngaimong la ka yalh vetih ka ih puei ni.
It is in peace that I will lie down and sleep, for you alone, Yahweh, make me safe and secure.
