A Prayer for the Poor; when he is deeply afflicted, and pours out his supplication before the Lord. Hear my prayer, O Lord, and let my cry come to thee.

Turn not away thy face from me: in the day [when] I am afflicted, incline thine ear to me: in the day [when] I shall call upon thee, speedily hear me.

I have become like a pelican of the wilderness;
7 Ka hak ah khaw imphu kah aka pangoe vaa bangla ka om.
I have become like an owl in a ruined house. I have watched, and am become as a sparrow dwelling alone on a roof.
8 Ka thunkha loh hnin takuem kai m'veet uh tih kai aka yan rhoek loh kai ming neh a toemngam uh.
All the day long mine enemies have reproached me; and they that praised me have sworn against me.
9 Hmaiphu te buh la ka caak tih ka tuiok khaw rhahnah neh ka thoek.
For I have eaten ashes as it were bread, and mingled my drink with weeping;
10 Kai nan ludoeng tangtae khaw na kosi, na thinhul neh kai nan voeih.
because of thine anger and thy wrath: for thou hast lifted me up, and dashed me down.
11 Ka khohnin he mueihlip bangla puh tih baelhing bangla ka rhae sut.
My days have declined like a shadow; and I am withered like grass.

For he has looked out from the height of his sanctuary; the Lord looked upon the earth from heaven;
20 Thongtl a kah a kiinah hnatun ham, dueknah khuikah hlang rhoek te hlah ham,
to hear the groaning of the fettered ones, to loosen the sons of the slain;

Take me not away in the midst of my days: thy years [are] through all generations.
25 A cuek vaengah diklai na suen tih vaan ke khaw namah kutngo ni.
In the beginning thou, O Lord, didst lay the foundation of the earth; and the heavens are the works of thine hands.
26 Amih te milh uh cakhaw namah tah na nguel yoeyah. Te dongah amih te himbai bangla boeih hnawn uh vetih pueinak bangla na tho vaengah thovael uh van ni.
They shall perish, but thou remainest: and [they all] shall wax old as a garment; and as a vesture shalt thou fold them, and they shall be changed.
27 Tedae namah tah amah la na om tih na kum khaw bawt pawh.
But thou art the same, and thy years shall not fail.
28 Na sal rhoek kah a ca rhoek loh kho a sak uh vetih a tiingan loh namah mikhmuh ah pai ni,” ka ti.
The children of thy servants shall dwell [securely], and their seed shall prosper for ever.
