Psalms 139
1 For the music director. A psalm of David. Lord, you have examined me from the inside out—you know everything about me!
Aw Bawipa, nang ing ni sui nawh ni sim hyk ti.
2 You know when I sit down and when I get up. You know what I'm thinking even when I'm a long way away.
Ngawi nyng kang dyih awh awm nang ing ni sim hyk ti; kak poeknaak ve ak hla nakawng sim hyk ti.
3 You observe where I go and when I rest. You're familiar with everything I do.
Cet nyng kang zaih awh awm nang ing ni sim hyk ti; lam boeih ce nang ing sim hyk ti.
4 Lord, you even know what I'm going to say before I say it.
Kam lai awh awi khangoet pateng za a awm hlan awh, Aw Bawipa, nang ing ni sim pheng hyk ti.
5 You're always there—behind me, in front of me, and all around me. You place your caring hand on me.
Nang ing huhai na ni hawi ni le nawh, kak khan awh na kut ce tloeng law hyk hy.
6 This amazing knowledge you have is far beyond me, way beyond my understanding!
Cemyih cyihnaak ce kai aham kawpoek kyi soeih na awm hy, sang aih nawh pha voet hqoeng nyng.
7 Where can I go that you're not already there? Where can I run to escape your presence?
Nang ang myihla a ven awhkawng hana ka ceh thai kaw?
8 If I go up to heaven, you are there. If I lie down in Sheol, look—you are there too! (Sheol h7585)
Khan na hang cet mai nyng seiawm, cena nang awm hyk ti; dek kai a dungnaak khuina zaih nyng seiawm, cena nang awm bai hyk ti. (Sheol h7585)
9 If I were to fly away on wings of the dawn to the east; if I were to live on the far western shore of the sea,
Myncang khawkdai awhkaw ang hla awh tho nyng, tuicunli vang ben caqai a hlanaak na awm mai nyng seiawm,
10 even there your hand would lead me, your right hand would support me.
cena awm nang a kut ing ni sawi bai kawp ti, nak tang ben kut ing ak cak cana nim tu kaw.
11 If I asked the darkness to hide me, and light to become night around me,
Thannaak ing ni hlip kawmsaw vangnaak ce ka ven tloek awh thannaak na coeng kaw,” ti mai nyng seiawm,
12 Even darkness would not be dark for you, and the night would be bright as day, for darkness is like light to you.
thannaak ing nang ce amni sing noeng tikaw; khawmthan ce dai amyihna vang kaw, thannaak ce nang aham vangnaak na awm kaw.
13 You made me from the inside out, shaping me in my mother's womb.
Ikawtih nang ing kak kawlung khui boeih ve sai hyk ti; ka nu ak phoen khui awh nang ing ni sing boeih hawh hyk ti.
14 I praise you for making me in such an awesome and wonderful way. What you do is incredible—I realize this completely!
Kqih awm ingkaw kawpoek kyi na nani sai a dawngawh nang ce nim kyihcah nyng; nang a ik-oeih saikhqi ve poek kyi na awm hy tice ak leek cana sim pheng nyng.
15 My growing body was not hidden from you as I was formed in secret, as I was intricately put together “in the depths of the earth.”
Ang hyp na sai na ka awm awh, ka pumqaw sainaak ve nang a venawh kawng thuh thai na am awm hy. Khawmdek a dungnaak awh kutoet na bawl na ka awm awh,
16 You saw me as an embryo, and in your book all my days were written down—the days that were made for me before any of them existed.
na mik ing ak bawl qu hlan ka pum ve hu hawh hy. Kai a khawnghi caksak na ak awmkhqi boeih ce pynoet awm ang coeng hlan awh, na cauk awh qee na awm hawh hy.
17 God, your thoughts are so valuable to me! Taken together, they can't be counted!
Aw Khawsa, nak poeknaakkhqi ve kai aham a phu tlo soeih mah hy!
18 If I tried to count them, they would be more than every grain of sand. Yet when I awake I am still with you.
Ka toek aham a awm mai mantaw, dizui dek anglakawh doem khqoet kaw. Kang hqyng law awh, na venawh awm hyn bak bak bai nyng.
19 God, if you would only kill the wicked! Murderers, get away from me!
Aw Bawipa, nang ing thlakche khqi doeng mah na him mai mantaw! Nangmih thlang a thin a mik ngaih tloek, ka venawh kawng ak hla na awm hoer uh!
20 When they speak of you they're being deceptively evil. Since they are your enemies, they call on you in vain.
Vekkhqi ing nang ce ak che na nik kqawn ngah ngah unawh; na qaalkhqi ing nang ming ce amak thym na hawna uhy.
21 Lord, don't I hate those who hate you? I despise those who rebel against you!
Aw Bawipa, nang anik sawhnaakkhqi ce sawh na nyng saw, nang qaal na anik thawh sihkhqi ce am ka tyih nawh nu?
22 I hate them with absolute hatred—they have become my enemies!
Cekkhqi sawhnaak doeng ni ka taak; cekkhqi ce ka qaal nani kak poek.
23 Examine me carefully, God, so you can be sure of my true feelings. Check me out so you can know what I really think.
Aw Khawsa, nang ing ni sek nawhtaw, kak kawlung ve sim law lah; ni noek ni dak nawhtaw kak kawpoekkhqi ve sim law lah.
24 Please show me if I'm following any kind of idol, and lead me along the path of eternal life.
Kai awh boeseetnaak khqi ak awm hy voei nu, toek nawhtaw, kumqui lam awh ni sawi lah.
