< Psalms 43 >

1 A Psalm of David. Judge me, O God, and discern my cause from that of a nation not holy; rescue me from a man unjust and deceitful.
Aw Pathen kai n'tang sak lamtah hlangcim pawh namtu neh tuituknah te oelh lah. Hlangthai palat neh dumlai hlang kut lamloh kai n'hlawt lah.
2 For you are God, my strength. Why have you rejected me? And why do I walk in sadness, while the adversary afflicts me?
Pathen namah ngawntah ka lunghim pai ni. Ba ham lae kai nan hlahpham? Thunkha kah haemtaek dongah ba ham lae kopang neh ka van eh?
3 Send forth your light and your truth. They have guided me and led me, to your holy mountain and into your tabernacles.
Na khosae neh na oltak te han tueih lah. Amih loh na tlang cim neh na tolhmuen la kai m'mawt saeh lamtah n'thak saeh.
4 And I will enter, up to the altar of God, to God who enlivens my youthfulness. To you, O God, my God, I will confess upon a stringed instrument.
Tedae Pathen kah hmueihtuk taengah khaw, Pathen taengah kohoenah neh omngaihnah la ka pha vaengah rhotoeng neh Pathen nang te kan uem bitni ka Pathen aw.
5 Why are you sad, my soul? And why do you disquiet me? Hope in God, for I will still give praise to him: the salvation of my countenance and my God.
Aw ka hinglu badongah na ngam sut tih ka khuiah huenghueng na ko? Pathen te ngaiuep lah. Ka hmai kah khangnah neh ka Pathen amah te ka uem dae lah mako?
