La Bu 52
1 Galhang nangma idia na thilse bol ho kiletsahpi nahim? Pathen thutan dihje hi tonsotna acheing helou nahim?
Why do you boast of mischief, mighty man? God’s cheshed ·loving-kindness· endures continually.
2 Nilhum kei keijin nangman manthahna ding jeng na gong e. Na leigui in jong samchem hemtah in mi a-at abang’in; jouthu sei in nangma anthem lheh e.
Your tongue plots destruction, like a sharp razor, working deceitfully.
3 Nang’in thilpha sang’in thilse na deijon, thutah sangin jong jou nadeijoi.
You 'ahavta ·affectionately love· evil more than good, lying rather than speaking the truth. (Selah) ·contemplation with musical interlude·.
4 Nathu jou hoa chun nangman mi suhmang ding nadei e!
You 'ahavta ·affectionately love· all devouring words, you deceitful tongue.
5 Hinlah Pathen’in nangma na hin suhmanghel ding ahi. Aman na in’a kon a nahin kaidoh ding chuleh mihing chenna gam’a kon’a na hin bodoh ding ahi.
God will likewise destroy you forever. He will take you up, and pluck you out of your tent, and root you out of the land of the living. (Selah) ·contemplation with musical interlude·.
6 Mi chonpha hon hichu hin muvintin ahin datmo di’u ahi. Amahon hin nuisat intin aseidi’u ahi,
The upright also will see it, and fear, and laugh at him, saying,
7 “Veuvin Pathen tahsanlou galhat ho chung’a hi ipi thil soh’a hitam? Amaho ahao nao a akisong’un, athilse bol nao a akhangtou cheh cheh un ahi.
“Behold, this is the man who didn’t make God his strength, but trusted in the abundance of his riches, and strengthened himself in his wickedness.”
8 Hinlah, keima vang Pathen houin sung’a keh Olive thing hing hoitah tobang kahin, keiman phattin’a Pathen mi ngailutna long lou chu katahsan jing ding ahi.
But as for me, I am like a green olive tree in God’s house. I trust in God’s cheshed ·loving-kindness· forever and ever.
9 O Pathen na thilpha bol jeh hin nangma thangvah jing ingting na mithengte masang’a na min ngeitah chu tahsan jing tang’e.
I will yadah ·extend hands in thankful praise· to you forever, because you have done it. I will hope in your name, for it is good, in the presence of your saints.
