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, O God of my righteousness; Thou hast set me at large [when I was] in distress: Have mercy upon me, and hear 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)
O ye sons of men, how long shall my glory be turned into dishonor? [How long] will ye love vanity, and seek after falsehood? (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 Jehovah hath set apart for himself him that is godly: Jehovah will hear when I call unto him.
4 Na tlai nen khaw tholh uh boeh. Na thinko neh na thingkong dongah thui lamtah kuemsuem lah. (Selah)
Stand in awe, and sin not: Commune with your own heart upon your bed, and be still. (Selah)
5 Duengnah hmueih te nawn lamtah BOEIPA dongah pangtung lah.
Offer the sacrifices of righteousness, And put your trust in Jehovah.
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 there are that say, Who will show us [any] good? Jehovah, lift thou up the light of thy countenance upon us.
7 Cangpai neh misur thai a thawt tue vaengkah lakah ka lungbuei ah kohoenah nan paek.
Thou hast put gladness in my heart, More than [they have] when their grain and their new wine are increased.
8 BOEIPA nang bueng daengloh, kai he ngaikhuek la kho nan sak sak dongah, ngaimong la ka yalh vetih ka ih puei ni.
In peace will I both lay me down and sleep; For thou, Jehovah, alone makest me dwell in safety.
