< Psalms 28 >

1 [By David.] To you, LORD, I call. My rock, do not be deaf to me; lest, if you are silent to me, I would become like those who go down into the pit.
David kah Kai kah lungpang, BOEIPA nang te kan khue. Kai taengah olmueh boeh. Kai hamla na ngam vetih tangrhom ah aka suntlak neh n'thuidoek ve.
2 Hear the voice of my petitions, when I cry to you, when I lift up my hands toward your Most Holy Place.
Nang taengah ka pang vaengah, namah hmuencim kah cangimphu benla kut ka dawn vaengah ka huithuinah ol he han ya lah.
3 Do not draw me away with the wicked, with evildoers who speak peace with their neighbors, but mischief is in their hearts.
Halang tih boethae aka saii rhoek neh kai he hmaih n'sol boeh. A hui taengah rhoepnah a thui dae a thinko khuiah thae.
4 Give them according to their work, and according to the wickedness of their doings. Give them according to the operation of their hands. Bring back on them what they deserve.
Amih a bisai neh a khoboe thaenah vanbangla amih ham khueh pah. A kut bibi vanbangla amih neh aka tiing te hmoel lamtah amih taengah pae.
5 Because they do not regard the works of the LORD, nor the operation of his hands, he will break them down and not build them up.
BOEIPA kah thaphu neh a kut dongkah bibi a yakming uh pawt dongah amih te a koengloeng vetih koep suem mahpawh.
6 Blessed be the LORD, because he has heard the voice of my petitions.
Ka huithuinah ol a yaak dongah BOEIPA te a yoethen saeh.
7 The LORD is my strength and my shield. My heart has trusted in him, and I am helped. Therefore my heart greatly rejoices. With my song I will thank him.
BOEIPA tah ka sarhi neh ka photling ni. Amah te ka lungbuei loh a pangtung tih n'bom dongah ka lungbuei sundaep. Te dongah ka laa neh amah te ka uem ni.
8 The LORD is the strength of his people. He is a stronghold of salvation to his anointed.
BOEIPA tah amih kah sarhi neh, a koelh hlang kah khangnah lunghim ni.
9 Save your people, and bless your inheritance. Be their shepherd also, and bear them up forever.
Na pilnam te khang lamtah na rho te a yoethen saeh. Amih te luem puei lamtah amih te kumhal duela phuei lah.
