Saam 77
1 Khawsa venawh bawmnaak thoeh doena khy nyng saw; kak awi ngaih aham Khawsa ce khy nyng.
For the leader. On Jeduthun. Of Asaph, a psalm. Loudly will I lift my cry to God, loudly to God, so he hears to me.
2 Kak kawpoek a kyi awh, Bawipa ce sui nyng; khawmthan awh awm ka kut qawi ve thlak kana phyl loet nyng saw ka hqingnaak ing ngaihqep cana awm aham tha na hy.
In the day of my trouble I seek the Lord; in the night I lift my hands in prayer, refusing all comfort.
3 Aw Khawsa, nang ce ni sim khak nyng saw, kang ko; ka poek qu hqet awh ce, kang myihhla ak tha hoet hy.
When I think of God, I moan; when I muse, my spirit is faint. (Selah)
4 Kamik ve ni tang sak khak tiksaw: awi ka pau kaw a ma lawnaak dyt awh kyi nyng.
When you hold my eyes awake, and I am restless and speechless,
5 Ak kqymkqawkhqi poek a vat sam nyng saw, ni hu ben awhkaw kumkhqi ce ka poek vat sam lah awh;
I think of the days of old, call to mind distant years.
6 Khawmthan awhkaw laa ka sakkhqi ce poek hqoet nyng. Kak kawlung ing kak poek hqet awh ce kang myihla ing awi doet hy;
I commune with my heart in the night, I muse with inquiring spirit.
7 Bawipa ing kumqui dyna nik qeng hly nu? Kak khan awh ak kaw am law hly voel nawh nu?
“Will the Lord cast us off forever, will he be gracious no more?
8 Amak dyt thai a lungnaak ce ang loet na qeng hly hawh nawh nu? Ak awikam awm plal hly poe hawh nawh nu?
Has his love vanished forever? Is his faithfulness utterly gone?
9 Khawsa ing qeennaak taak aham hilh hly hau hawh nawh hy voei nu? Ak kawsonaak ing a lungqeennaak ce byp hly pe khoep hawh nawh hy voei nu?” ti nyng.
Has God forgotten to be gracious, or in anger withheld his compassion?” (Selah)
10 Cawhtaw, Vemyihna qeennaak thoeh kawng; Sawsang Soeih awh ak awm tangkut ben awhkaw kumkhqi ce,” tinawh poek nyng.
Then I said, “This it is that grieves me, that the hand of the Most High has changed.”
11 Bawipa a ik-oeih saikhqi ce sim loet kawng nyng saw; oeih, ma nakaw kawpoek kyi ik-oeih na saikhqi ce sim loet vang nyng.
I will think of the deeds of the Lord, and remember your wonders of old.
12 Na bibinaak khqi ce poek nyng saw nak thaawm ik-oeih sai ce ak nep na poek kawng nyng.
I will muse on all you have wrought, and meditate on your deeds.
13 Aw Khawsa, nang a lawnglamkhqi taw zawziih hy. Ningmih a Khawsamyihna ak awm ikawmyih khawsa nu a awm bai?
Then your way, O God, was majestic: what God was great as our God?
14 Nang Khawsa ing ni kawpoek kyi ik-oeihkhqi na sai nawh; thlangkhqi venawh nak thaawmnaak ce ang dang sak.
You were a God who did marvels, you did show your power to the world
15 Nak thaawm ban ing nak thlangkhqi, Jacob ingkaw Joseph cadilkhqi ce hul hyk ti.
by your arm you rescued your people, the children of Jacob and Joseph. (Selah)
16 Aw Khawsa, tuikhqi ing ni hu uhy, tuikhqi ing ni hu unawh chawi qu kawlh kawlh uhy; tuihdungkhqi awm thyn hqoeng uhy.
The waters saw you, O God. The waters saw you and shivered; to their depths they trembled.
17 Cingmaikhqi ing tui hawk unawh, khawnghi ing hum hy; na lakhqi ing huna haina phla hlap hlap hy.
Clouds poured torrents of water, thunder rolled in the sky, your arrows sped to and fro.
18 Khawhum awi ce khaw na phla nawh, khawkphla ing khawmdek ce vang sak hy; Khawmdek ing tyn nawh thyn hy.
Loud was the roll of your thunder, lightnings lit up the world. Earth quaked and trembled.
19 Na lam ce tuicunli dyna awm nawh, na khawleh am dang hlai hy, na cehnaak ce tuinu thingpa anglakawh awm hy.
In your way, Lord, through the sea, in your path through the mighty waters, your footsteps were all unseen.
20 Nang ing Mosi ingkaw Aaron a kut hawna nawh nak thlangkhqi ce tuu kqeng amyihna sawi hyk ti.
You did guide your folk like a flock by the hand of Moses and Aaron.
