La Bu 30

1 Pakai nangin neihuhdoh tahjeh in kahin thangvah e. Nangin kagalmite kachunga nakithang at sahpon ahi.

A psalm; a song at the dedication of the temple. A psalm of David. I will exalt you, Yahweh, for you have raised me up and have not allowed my enemies to rejoice over me.

2 O Pakai kapathen panpi ngaichan kahin kouvin nangman katahsa nakiledoh sah tai.

Yahweh my God, I cried to you for help, and you healed me.

3 O Pakai nangin lhankhuh a kon in neihin puidoh in, thina kokhuh akalhah lutna dinga kon in jong neihoidoh sah e. (Sheol h7585)

Yahweh, you have brought up my soul from Sheol; you have kept me alive from going down to the grave. (Sheol h7585)

4 Nangho Pathen mite jousen Pakai thangvahna lasaovin! Amintheng chu choi an’un.

Sing praises to Yahweh, you his faithful people! Give thanks when you remember his holiness.

5 Ajeh chu alunghan hi phat chomcha bou ahijin, ami hepina vang hinkhoa ding ahi. Kaa na nikho ho jong kipanin ajui pai jitai.

For his anger is only for a moment; but his favor is for a lifetime. Weeping comes for a night, but joy comes in the morning.

6 Keimankaphatthei nikhon,” Imachan eisutang jouponte!” kanati.

In confidence I said, “I will never be shaken.”

7 O Pakai nami hepinahin muol bangin eisudettai. Keija kon a nakiheimang jiteng leh keima kading jou jipoi.

Yahweh, by your favor you established me as a strong mountain; but when you hid your face, I was troubled.

8 O Pakai nahenga kahung tao ahi. Nami hepina chu kathum in hitin kaseije,

I cried to you, Yahweh, and sought favor from my Lord!

9 “Keima kathi alhankhuh a kalhalut teng nangdinga ipi phachom dingham? Katahsa leivui in nang navah choi thei dingham? Nakitah na thu chu hichehin aphondoh thei ding ham?

What advantage is there in my death, if I go down to the grave? Will the dust praise you? Will it declare your trustworthiness?

10 Neihin ngaipeh in Pakai neihin khoto in. OPakai neihin kithopin”

Hear, Yahweh, and have mercy on me! Yahweh, be my helper.

11 Nangin kalung khamnahi kipah tah a laam nan neiheidoh pehtai. Nangin kalung khamna silpon neilahdoh pehin kipana silpon joh neisilpehtan ahi.

You have turned my mourning into dancing; you have removed my sackcloth and clothed me with gladness.

12 Hitia chu thipsan louva thangvahna la kasah jing theina dingin. O Pakai ka Pathen, keiman nangma tonsot'in thangvah jing tange.

So now my glory will sing praise to you and not be silent; Yahweh my God, I will give thanks to you forever!
