Psalms 37
1 A Psalm of David. Fret not thyself because of evildoers, neither be thou envious against the workers of iniquity.
Ik-oeih che ak saikhqi awh ce nak kaw koeh seet sak nawhtaw ik-oeih amak thym ak sai thlangkhqi awm koeh nai.
2 For they shall soon be cut down like the grass, and wither as the green herb.
Cekkhqi taw qam amyihna reu naai kawm usaw qam saihqing amyihna thi naai bit kawm uh.
3 Trust in the LORD, and do good; so shalt thou dwell in the land, and verily thou shalt be fed.
Bawipa ypna nawhtaw ik-oeih leek ce sai lah; ve qam khuiawh awm nawh qamhqing ve ngaihding ing awm sih lah.
4 Delight thyself also in the LORD; and he shall give thee the desires of thy heart.
Bawipa awh zeelnaak ta lah, nak kawlung hym ngaihnaakkhqi ce amah ing ni pe bit kaw.
5 Commit thy way to the LORD; trust also in him; and he shall bring it to pass.
Na cehnaak lam ce Bawipa awh hal lah; amah ce ypna lah amah ing sai law bit kaw:
6 And he shall bring forth thy righteousness as the light, and thy judgment as the noonday.
Anih ing na dyngnaak ce mymcang khaw amyihna bee law sak kaw, ak thym ik-oeih na sainaak awm khawnghyp khawmik amyihna bee law sak kaw.
7 Rest in the LORD, and wait patiently for him: fret not thyself because of him who prospereth in his way, because of the man who bringeth wicked devices to pass.
Bawipa haiawh awm poek poek nawhtaw kaw dungnaak ing amah ce qeh lah; thlangkhqi ing a ik-oeih sai awh nak kaw koeh tlawh sak.
8 Cease from anger, and forsake wrath: fret not thyself in any way to do evil.
Kawsonaak ce re nawhtaw kaw tawknaak awhkawng hlat lah; nam thim koeh tlawh sak - ce ing ce ak che ben doek khoeih awh ni ani hquisawi hly.
9 For evildoers shall be cut off: but those that wait upon the LORD, they shall inherit the earth.
Ikawtih, thlak chekhqi taw moelh a moeng kawm uh, cehlai Bawipa awh ngaih-unaak ak takhqi ingtaw qam ce pang kawm uh.
10 For yet a little while, and the wicked shall not be: yea, thou shalt diligently consider his place, and it shall not be.
Kawlhkalh awh, thlak chekhqi taw am awm voel tikaw; cekkhqi ce sui tik seiawm, am hu voel kawp ti.
11 But the meek shall inherit the earth; and shall delight themselves in the abundance of peace.
Cehlai kaw ak daw thlangkhqi ingtaw qam ce pang kawmsaw ak bau qoep ang quinaak ing nawm kawm uh.
12 The wicked plotteth against the just, and gnasheth upon him with his teeth.
Thlak che ingtaw thlak leek ce teng nawh a ha tah sih hy;
13 The Lord shall laugh at him: for he seeth that his day is coming.
Cehlai Bawipa ing thlak che ce qaih na hy, cekkhqi a tym ce law huili hawh hy ti a sim dawngawh.
14 The wicked have drawn out the sword, and have bent their bow, to cast down the poor and needy, and to slay such as are of upright conduct.
Thlakche ing khawdengkhqi ingkaw ak voethlauh khqi ce tluk sak aham ingkaw lap dyng awh ak cetkhqi ce him aham zawzi ce phlawng nawh licung ce hawi hy.
15 Their sword shall enter into their own heart, and their bows shall be broken.
Cehlai a mimah ak zawzi ing a mimah a lingbyi nawn ce sun pek khqi kawmsaw ami licungkhqi awm ek pek khqi kaw.
16 A little that a righteous man hath is better than the riches of many wicked.
Thlak che a boeinaak anglakawh thlakdyng ing a khoeh ca a taak ce nep bet hy.
17 For the arms of the wicked shall be broken: but the LORD upholdeth the righteous.
Cehlai thlak che ak thaawmnaak taw ek kawmsaw, thlakdyng cetaw Bawipa ing tu kaw.
18 The LORD knoweth the days of the upright: and their inheritance shall be for ever.
Coet amak kap qoe thlangkhqi a khawnyn ce Bawipa ing sim pehy, a qopang hly kawi awm kumqui dyna cak loet kaw.
19 They shall not be ashamed in the evil time: and in the days of famine they shall be satisfied.
Plawcinaak atym a pha awh ce am zai kawm uh; khawseet khawkha awh awm khawzah ta kawm uh.
20 But the wicked shall perish, and the enemies of the LORD shall be as the fat of lambs: they shall consume; into smoke shall they consume away.
Cehlai thlak chekhqi taw qeeng kawm uh; Bawipa a qaalkhqi taw qam a leeknaak amyihna ni ami awm hly, qeng bang kawm usaw mai khu amyihna ding bang kawm uh.
21 The wicked borroweth, and payeth not again: but the righteous showeth mercy, and giveth.
Thlak che ingtaw pu hlai hy am thung voel hy, cehlai thlakdyng ingtaw khawboe cawnnaak ing pehy.
22 For such as are blessed by him shall inherit the earth; and they that are cursed by him shall be cut off.
Bawipa ing zosennaak a peek khqi ing qam ce pang kawm uh, cehlai kawsi ak hawi thlangkhqi taw milh a moeng kawm uh.
23 The steps of a good man are ordered by the LORD: and he delighteth in his way.
A cehnaak awh BawipaK kaw ak law sak thlang taw, a khaw kan cak pe sak hy;
24 Though he should fall, he shall not be utterly cast down: for the LORD upholdeth him with his hand.
Bah seiawm, am tlu tikaw, Bawipa ing a kut ing tu hy.
25 I have been young, and now am old; yet I have not seen the righteous forsaken, nor his seed begging bread.
Thak awm hui na hang awm hawh nyng saw tuh taw pacawng hawh nyng, thlakdyng cehtaak na ak awm am hu khawi hlan nyng saw a cakhqi ing buh ami thoeh awm am hu khawi hlan nyng.
26 He is ever merciful, and lendeth; and his seed is blessed.
Khawboe cawnnaak ing thlang amik pu poepa dawngawh a cakhqi ing zosennaak hu kawm uh.
27 Depart from evil, and do good; and dwell for evermore.
Ik-oeih che cehta nawh ik-oeih leek sai lah; cawhtaw qam khuiawh kumqui dyna awm kawp ti.
28 For the LORD loveth judgment, and forsaketh not his saints; they are preserved for ever: but the seed of the wicked shall be cut off.
Bawipa ing thlakdyng ce a lungnaak dawngawh amah a ypawm thlangkhqi a cadilkhqi taw moelh sak kaw;
29 The righteous shall inherit the land, and dwell in it for ever.
Thlakdyng ingtaw qam ce pang kawmsaw, ak khuiawh kumqui dyna awm kaw.
30 The mouth of the righteous speaketh wisdom, and his tongue talketh of judgment.
Thlakdyng am kha ingtaw cyihnaak awi sa nawh, am lai ing awih thym ce kqawn hy.
31 The law of his God is in his heart; none of his steps shall slide.
A Khawsak a cawngpyinaak awi ce ak kawlung khuiawh khoem nawh; a khaw am bah hy.
32 The wicked watcheth the righteous, and seeketh to slay him.
Thlak che ingtaw thlakdyngkhqi ce him aham ngawih sih poepa hy;
33 The LORD will not leave him in his hand, nor condemn him when he is judged.
Cehlai Bawipa ing cekkhqi kut awh am cehta hyt ti kawmsaw awidengnaak a awm awh awm am thawlh sak tikaw.
34 Wait on the LORD, and keep his way, and he shall exalt thee to inherit the land: when the wicked are cut off, thou shalt see it.
Bawipa ce qeh nawhtaw a lam ce hquut loet lah. Qam pang sak aham nang ce ni zoeksang kaw; thlak chekhqi moelh sak na ami awm ce hu kawp ti.
35 I have seen the wicked in great power, and spreading himself like a green bay tree.
Ang lai boet na nawh a hqing sup na ak hlul thing amyihna ak awm thlak che ingkaw, thlang qeenkhaw amak ngai thlang ce hu nyng,
36 Yet he passed away, and, lo, he was not: yea, I sought him, but he could not be found.
Cehlai kawlhkalh awh anih ce khum bang kawmsaw am awm voel tikaw; sui nyng awm, huh thai na am awm voel kaw.
37 Mark the perfect man, and behold the upright: for the end of that man is peace.
Coet amak kap thlangkhqi ce poek nawhtaw, thlakdyngkhqi ce hat lah; qoepnaak ak sai thlangkhqi ingtaw cadil ta kaw.
38 But the transgressors shall be destroyed together: the end of the wicked shall be cut off.
Thlak thawlhkhqi taw hqe na awm kawm usaw; thlak chekhqi a cadilkhqi awm moelh kawm uh.
39 But the salvation of the righteous is of the LORD: he is their strength in the time of trouble.
Thlakdyng hulnaak taw Bawipa ven awhkawng law nawh; kyinaak ami huh awh anih taw cekkhqi ham vawngnu na awm pehy.
40 And the LORD shall help them, and deliver them: he shall deliver them from the wicked, and save them, because they trust in him.
Bawipa ing cekkhqi ce hul nawh thaawng hy; amah awh ang thuk dawngawh, thlak chekhqi anglakawhkawng hul nawh thaawng hy.
