La Bu 13

1 O Pakai, phat itihchan geihi neisuhmil ding hitam? Itih chan keija kon’a nakiselmang ding nahim?

How long, Adonai? Will you forget me forever? How long will you hide your face from me?

2 Itihchan gei hiche hahsatna hi kathoh ding ham? Itih chan asun ajan’a lungkhamna dimset’a kaum ding ham? Itih chan kagalmiten hanla eisap khum diu hitam?

How long shall I take counsel in my soul, having sorrow in my heart every day? How long shall my enemy triumph over me?

3 O Pakai, Ka-Pathen hung kiheijin, neihin donbut tan! Katha kile dohsah’in, neithisah hih’in.

Behold, and answer me, Adonai, my God. Give light to my eyes, lest I sleep in death;

4 “Ama hi kajou tai!” tin kamelma te hi kalhuh nin kipasah hih beh in.

Lest my enemy say, “I have prevailed against him;” Lest my adversaries rejoice when I fall.

5 Amavang namingailutna longlouvachu kingai jing kahi. Neihuhdoh jeh a keima kipa jing ding kahi.

But I trust in your cheshed ·loving-kindness·. My heart rejoices in your yishu'ah ·salvation·.

6 Keiman Pakai vahchoi lan sang e ajeh chu Ama keidin thilpha tah eibol peh ati.

I will sing to Adonai, because he has been good to me.
