Psalms 3
1 The psalm of David when he fled from the face of his son Absalom. Why, O Lord, are they multiplied that afflict me? many are they who rise up against me.
A capa Absalom khae hoi cawnh naah tarik ih David ih Saam laa. Aw Angraeng, kai raihaih paek misanawk loe paroeai pop o! Nihcae loe pop o parai pongah, kai hae misa ah ang suek o.
2 Many say to my soul: There is no salvation for him in his God.
Kaminawk mah, Sithaw mah anih to angsak haih mak ai, tiah ang naa o. (Selah)
3 But thou, O Lord art my protector, my glory, and the lifter up of my head.
Toe aw Angraeng, nang loe ka buephaih, ka lensawkhaih ah na oh moe, kai ih lu atoengh tahang kami ah na oh.
4 I have cried to the Lord with my voice: and he hath heard me from his holy hill.
Angraeng khaeah tha hoi ka hang naah, anih mah angmah ih kaciim mae nui hoiah ka lok ang pathim. (Selah)
5 I have slept and taken my rest: and I have risen up, because the Lord hath protected me.
Kang song moe, ka iih; Angraeng mah ang patawnh pongah, kang thawk let.
6 I will not fear thousands of the people, surrounding me: arise, O Lord; save me, O my God.
Kai takui khoep, ka misa sang hatonawk to ka zii mak ai.
7 For thou hast struck all them who are my adversaries without cause: thou hast broken the teeth of sinners.
Aw Angraeng, angthawk ah; Aw ka Sithaw, na pahlong ah: ka misanawk ih akam huh to nang boh pae moe, Sithaw panoek ai kaminawk ih haa to nam rosak.
8 Salvation is of the Lord: and thy blessing is upon thy people.
Pahlonghaih loe Sithaw ih ni; na tahamhoihaih loe nangmah ih kaminawk nuiah om nasoe. (Selah)
