< Psalms 4 >

1 To the chief music-maker on corded instruments. A Psalm. Of David. Give answer to my cry, O God of my righteousness; make me free from my troubles; have mercy on me, and give ear to my prayer.
Kakou teng neidon but’in, them eichan sah a O Pakai; kalhatsam nikho teng jong le nangman lunglet neipe ji; neikhoton lang kataona neingai peh tei in.
2 O you sons of men, how long will you go on turning my glory into shame? how long will you give your love to foolish things, going after what is false? (Selah)
Vo mihem chapate, nanghohin itih chanpi neisuh jum diu hitam? Itihchan ajehbei a nei thepmosah uva, itihchan pihi jouthu nachepi diu hitam?
3 See how the Lord has made great his mercy for me; the Lord will give ear to my cry.
Ahi nanghon heuvin, Pakaiyin ama gingho Ama ding’in atum’in alhengdoh’e. Pakai kakou tengleh Aman ei-donbut teijin ahi.
4 Let there be fear in your hearts, and do no sin; have bitter feelings on your bed, but make no sound. (Selah)
Kisonlelnan kithing pumin umun, ahin chonset boldaovin; hichu nalupnao muna jong nalungthimu toh gelkhom jinguvin lang umdet jingun.
5 Give the offerings of righteousness, and put your faith in the Lord.
Lungthengsel a kilhai naho boljingun chule natahsan nao Pakai a koi jingun.
6 There are numbers who say, Who will do us any good? the light of his face has gone from us.
Hiho sanga phajo eimusah thei diu koi ham? tin mitamtah’in seiunte, Pakai namaivah achun keiho neihinsu emsel un.
7 Lord, you have put joy in my heart, more than they have when their grain and their wine are increased.
Nangman lengpitwi leh changle mim nengchat’a kilamdoh ho kipani sangin, kalungthim nakipasah tai.
8 I will take my rest on my bed in peace, because you only, Lord, keep me safe.
Keima Nanga dia lungmonga kalupa ka-ihmut ding ahi, Pakai nei hoidoh inlang neivengtup in.
