Psalms 56

1 To the chief Musician. On Jonathelem-rechokim. Of David. Michtam; when the Philistines took him in Gath. Be gracious unto me, O God; for man would swallow me up: all the day long fighting he oppresseth me.

Aka mawt ham Gath ah Philisti loh amah a khoh vaengkah David kah lakhla olmueh vahui laa Kho hnin takuem kai aka nen la aka nen, hlanghing loh kai n'hloem dongah, Pathen aw kai n'rhen dae.

2 Mine enemies would swallow [me] up all the day long; for they are many that fight against me haughtily.

Ka lungawn rhoek loh khohnin takuem n'hloem uh tih, kai he koevoeinah neh aka nen khaw yet.

3 In the day that I am afraid, I will confide in thee.

Kai loh ka rhih khohnin ah, namah dongla ka pangtung.

4 In God will I praise his word, in God I put my confidence: I will not fear; what can flesh do unto me?

Pathen rhang neh amah kah olka te ka thangthen. Pathen dongah ka pangtung tih ka rhih mahpawh. Pumsa loh kai taengah balae a saii thai.

5 All the day long they wrest my words; all their thoughts are against me for evil.

Khohnin yung ah kai ol a yakdam uh tih a kopoek boeih khaw kai taengah thae uh.

6 They gather themselves together, they hide themselves; they mark my steps, because they wait for my soul.

Amih loh ka kholaeh te, a dawn a dawn uh tih m'mae uh. Ka hinglu he a lamtawn uh dongah n'tawt uh.

7 Shall they escape by iniquity? In anger cast down the peoples, O God.

Amih kah boethae ah na thintoek loh pilnam rhoek a hlak te hlawt la om saeh saw Pathen aw.

8 Thou countest my wanderings; put my tears into thy bottle: are they not in thy book?

Ka poengdoenah he namah loh tae lamtah, ka mikphi he na tuitang khuiah than lah. Na cabu dongah om pawt nim?

9 Then shall mine enemies return backward in the day when I call: this I know, for God is for me.

Te dongah amah te ka khue khohnin kah, ka thunkha rhoek a bal uh nen te, kai ham Pathen om tila ka ming ni.

10 In God will I praise [his] word; in Jehovah will I praise [his] word.

Pathen rhang neh olka te ka thangthen. BOEIPA rhang neh olka te ka thangthen.

11 In God have I put my confidence: I will not fear; what can man do unto me?

Pathen dongah ka pangtung dongah ka rhih mahpawh. Hlang loh kai taengah balae a saii thai?

12 Thy vows are upon me, O God: I will render thanks unto thee.

Aw Pathen, kai sokah na olcaeng ham, nang taengah uemonah neh kan thuung ni.

13 For thou hast delivered my soul from death; [wilt thou] not [keep] my feet from falling, that I may walk before God in the light of the living?

Dueknah lamkah ka hinglu nan huul phoeiah, Pathen mikhmuh kah hingnah khosae ah caeh ham ka kho he thuihkoek lamkah han hlawt moenih a?
