Psalms 25
1 A psalm of David. To you, O Lord, I lift up my heart: all the day I wait for you.
Aw Bawipa, na venawh ka hqingnaak zoek law nyng.
2 In you I trust, put me not to shame; let not my foes exult over me.
Aw ka Khawsa, nang ni ka ni ypnaak. Chah koeh ni phyih sak nawh, ka qaalkhqi ingawm koeh ni noeng sak.
3 None will be shamed who wait for you, but shame will fall upon wanton traitors.
Nang awh ngaih-unaak ak takhqi boeih taw chah am phyi tikaw, cehlai ikaw am maiawh ypawm thlang na amak awmkhqi taw chah phyihnaak hu kawm uh.
4 Make me, O Lord, to know your ways: teach me your paths.
Aw Bawipa, nang ing na lamkhqi ce nim huh nawh na cehnaak lamkhqi ce ni cawng sak lah;
5 In your faithfulness guide me and teach me, for you are my God and my saviour.
Nang taw ka hulkung Khawsa na na awm dawngawh nak awitak khuiawh ni sawi nawh ni cawngpyi lah, myngawi kang ngaih-unaak taw nang ni.
6 Remember your pity, O Lord, and your kindness, for they have been ever of old.
Aw Bawipa, syn awhkawng ak awm nam qeennaak ingkaw na lungnaak bau soeih ce sim poe lah.
7 Do not remember the sins of my youth; remember me in kindness, because of your goodness, Lord.
Ka taai hui awhkaw ka thawlhnaakkhqi ingkaw hatlauh na ka awmnaak khawboe qamlangkhqi ce koeh sim poe lah, na lungnaak awh ce ni sim poe lah, Bawipa nang taw leek hyk ti.
8 Good is the Lord and upright, so he teaches sinners the way.
Leeknaak ingkaw dyngnaak ve Bawipa koe ni; Cedawngawh thlak thawlhkhqi ce amah a lamkhqi cawngpyi khqi hy.
9 The humble he guides in the right, he teaches the humble his way.
Dungvoeng na ak awm thlangkhqi ce a thymnaak benna sawi nawh amah a lam ce cawngpyi hy.
10 All his ways are loving and loyal to those who observe his charges and covenant.
Ak awipeek paipi ak thin tlawhnaak khqi taw lungnaak kap nawh a ypawm hy.
11 Be true to your name Lord, forgive my many sins.
Aw Bawipa, ka sai thawlhkhqi ve bau soeih mai seiawm, nang ming ak caming qeenkhaw ngai law lah.
12 Who then is the person who fears the Lord? He will teach them the way to choose.
Cawhtaw, Bawipa ak kqih thlang ce a u hy voei nu? Lam ak tyk peek naak amyihna anih ce cuk am kik kaw.
13 They will live in prosperity, their children will inherit the land.
Anih ing khawnghyp boeih ce zo awmnaak ing hawna kawmsaw, a cadilkhqi ing qam ce pang kawm uh.
14 The Lord gives guidance to those who fear him, and with his covenant he makes them acquainted.
Bawipa ing amah ak kqihkhqi venawh a paipi ce ang hyp na sim sak dym hy.
15 My eyes are ever toward the Lord, for out of the net he brings my foot.
Kamik qawi ing Bawipa ben doeng ni a toek, amah doeng ing ni ka khaw qawi ve thang awhkawng a hlam law hly.
16 Turn to me with your favour, for I am lonely and crushed
Kai benna mang law nawh nim qeen lah, khuikha ing kamah doeng ca ka awm a dawngawh.
17 In my heart are strain and storm; bring me out of my distresses.
Kak kawlung khuikhanaak ve kqawn kaw am hut voel hy, ngaihang kawbin na ka awmnaak awhkawng ni loet sak lah.
18 Look on my misery and trouble, and pardon all my sins,
Ka khuikhanaak ingkaw kang ngaih a kyinaak toek nawhtaw ka thawlhnaak boeih ve khoe law bang lah.
19 look on my foes oh, so many! And their cruel hatred towards me.
Ka qaalkhqi pung khawnghak nawh kai a mini sawhnaak ve toek lah!
20 Deliver me, keep me, and shame not one who takes refuge in you.
Ka hqingnaak ve qym nawhtaw kai ve ni hul lah; nang ak khuiawh kang thuk a dawngawh chahqai na koeh ni awm sak.
21 May integrity and innocence preserve me, for I wait for you, O Lord.
Kawlung thymnaak ingkaw dyngnaak ing nik chung lah seh, kang ngaih-unaak taw nang awh a awm dawngawh.
22 Redeem Israel, O God, from all its distresses.
Aw Khawsa, a kyinaak awhkawng Isarel ve hul lah!
