La Bu 56
1 O Pathen, na mi khotonan neipui jing’in, ajeh chu mipite’n eidel jing’uvin eidouhon nilhumkei kei’in eidelkhum jing’un ahi.
“For the leader of the music. To be sung to the tune of “The dumb dove among strangers.” A psalm of David, when the Philistines took him in Gath.” Have pity upon me, O God! for man panteth for my life; My adversary daily oppresseth me!
2 Eihousehon jong phattin in eidel jing’un chuleh mitamtah’in eidelkhum jing’un ahi.
Mine enemies daily pant for my life, And many are they who war proudly against me.
3 Ahinlah ka kichat teng nangma tahsanna a chun ka lut ji tan ahi.
When I am in fear, I will put my trust in thee!
4 Aman kahenga kitepna aneij jeh’in Pakai chu ka thangvah e. Pathen tahsana a ka dindet jingle kei ipi ding’a ka kichat ding ham? Mihem mai mai in i eilo thei ding ham?
Through God shall I praise his word; In God do I put my trust; I will not fear; What can flesh do to me?
5 Amahon ka thusei jouse ahilou lam in alao vin; kei suhsetna ding’in anikho ho’u jong amang jing ui.
Every day they wrest my words; All their thoughts are against me for evil.
6 Amaho ahung’un eihung velhi’uvin, keima eithatheina diuvin ka chaloh ka sinsah avelhi jing’un ahi.
They gather themselves together, they hide themselves, they watch my steps, Lying in wait for my life.
7 Achonset pum’un jammang sah hihbeh in; na lungsah na achun O Pakai amaho chu sumang jeng’in.
Shall they escape by their iniquity? In thine anger cast down the people, O God!
8 Nang’in ka thoh gimna neihetpeh jingnan ahi, nang’in ka lengvaina mitlhi hi khon a nakhol khom in, chuleh khatcheh hi na lekhabu’a najihlut e.
Count thou my wanderings; Put my tears into thy bottle! Are they not recorded in thy book?
9 Keiman nangma eikithopi ding’a ka kou tengleh ka galmite jamming taovin te. Hijeh’a chu keiman Pathen hi keima lang’a pang ahi ti ka het jingna ahi!
When I cry to thee, my enemies shall turn back; This I know, that God is for me.
10 Pathen’in kakoma kitep na anei jeh in keiman Pathen ka thangvah e; henge, Pathen in kahinga kitepna anei jeh in Pakai ka thangvah ahi.
Through God shall I praise his word; I shall glory in the promise of Jehovah.
11 Keiman Pathen ka tahsanna a hi ka din jingle ipi ding’a ka kichat ding ham? Mihem mai mai hon i eilo di’u ham?
In God do I put my trust; I will not fear: What can man do to me?
12 O Pathen nang kom’a ka kitepna keiman subulhit ingting chutengleh kilhaina in thangvahna peng ka te.
Thy vows are upon me, O God! I will render praises to thee!
13 Ajeh chu nang’in ka thina ding’a kon’in neihuhdoh tan kakiselhuh louna din nang ka keng neituh peh tai. Hijeh chun O Pathen tunna angsung hinna vah napeh na mun a chun hung lut thei tange.
For thou hast delivered me from death, Yea, my feet from falling, That I may walk before God in the light of the living.
