Psalms 142

1 Maschil of David, when he was in the cave; a Prayer. With my voice I cry unto the LORD; with my voice I make supplication unto the LORD.

Keima Pakai henga kataovin, Pakai henga khotona kathum in ahi.

2 I pour out my complaint before Him, I declare before Him my trouble;

Keima Pakai ang-sunga kakiphin in, kahahsatna jouse jong kaphongdoh’in.

3 When my spirit fainteth within me — Thou knowest my path — in the way wherein I walk have they hidden a snare for me.

Kalhagao alam vai jitan, hinlah Pakai nangbou nahi kachena ding lampi ei-hil ji. Kajotna lam lam’a chun ei-douten thang eikam peh jiuvin ahi.

4 Look on my right hand, and see, for there is no man that knoweth me; I have no way to flee; no man careth for my soul.

Keiman mikhat tou hunga eipanpi ding kangaichat lai jin, koiman amitsih jenga jong eive poi! Koimacha eikithopi ding aumpoi, kachunga thilsoh koiman imachan eigelpeh poi.

5 I have cried unto Thee, O LORD; I have said: 'Thou art my refuge, my portion in the land of the living.'

O Pakai, keima na henga kataovin, “Nangma hi kakiselna nahi, kahinkhoa kangaichat pen nang bou nahi,” kati.

6 Attend unto my cry; for I am brought very low; deliver me from my persecutors; for they are too strong for me.

Kataona hi nei ngaipeh teijin, ei-kisunem behseh jeng tai! Ei-bolgenthei hoa kon’in neihuhdoh tan, ajeh chu amaho keisang in ahatval jeng tauve.

7 Bring my soul out of prison, that I may give thanks unto Thy name; the righteous shall crown themselves because of me; for Thou wilt deal bountifully with me.

Songkul’a kon’in neihuhdoh loijin, chutileh nangma kathangvah thei ding ahi. Lolhing tah’a neibol jeh’a kajet le kaveija midih dim lha diu ahi.
