Psalms 5
1 For the Chief Musician, with the flutes. A Psalm by David. Give ear to my words, Yahweh. Consider my (meditation)
Kathutkung: Devit Oe BAWIPA, ka lawk na thai pouh haw. Ka khopouknae hah na pouk pouh haw.
2 Listen to the voice of my cry, my King and my God, for I pray to you.
Ka siangpahrang hoi ka Cathut, ka hramnae hah na thai pouh haw. Nang koevah, ka ratoum.
3 Yahweh, in the morning you will hear my voice. In the morning I will lay my requests before you, and will watch expectantly.
Oe BAWIPA, amom vah, ka lawk na thai han. Amom vah nang koe lah kangvawi laihoi, lathueng lah ka khet han.
4 For you are not a God who has pleasure in wickedness. Evil can’t live with you.
Bangkongtetpawiteh, nang teh thoenae dawk a lung kahawi e Cathut nahoeh. Thoenae hai nang koe awm hoeh.
5 The arrogant will not stand in your sight. You hate all workers of iniquity.
Na hmithmu vah kâoupnaw teh kangdout thai mahoeh. Payonnae ka sak e pueng teh na hmuhma.
6 You will destroy those who speak lies. Yahweh abhors the bloodthirsty and deceitful man.
Laithoe kadeinaw hah na raphoe teh, dumyennae hoi tami theikahrannaw hah Bawipa ni a panuet.
7 But as for me, in the abundance of your loving kindness I will come into your house. I will bow toward your holy temple in reverence of you.
Hatei kai teh, na lungmanae apap kecu dawk na im vah ka tho han. Nang taki laihoi kathounge Bawkim koelah kangvawi laihoi na bawk han.
8 Lead me, Yahweh, in your righteousness because of my enemies. Make your way straight before my face.
Oe BAWIPA, ka tarannaw kecu dawk na lannae hoi na hrawi haw, ka hmalah na lam hah lan sak haw.
9 For there is no faithfulness in their mouth. Their heart is destruction. Their throat is an open tomb. They flatter with their tongue.
Bangkongtetpawiteh, a pahni dawk yuemkamcunae awmhoeh. Athung lae teh rawknae doeh. A lawkron teh kamawng e tangkom doeh. A laihoi dueng doeh ayânaw a oup awh.
10 Hold them guilty, God. Let them fall by their own counsels. Thrust them out in the multitude of their transgressions, for they have rebelled against you.
Oe Cathut, yon pen haw. Amamouh ni a sak awh e dawk letlang bawt awh naseh. Kâtapoenae moipap dawkvah, tâkhawng haw. Bangkongtetpawiteh, nang taran laihoi taran a thaw awh.
11 But let all those who take refuge in you rejoice. Let them always shout for joy, because you defend them. Let them also who love your name be joyful in you.
Hatei, nang ka kâuep e pueng, konawm awh naseh. Na ngue dawkvah, konawm laihoi hram awh naseh. Na min ka lungpataw naw hai nang dawk konawm awh naseh.
12 For you will bless the righteous. Yahweh, you will surround him with favor as with a shield.
Bangtelane Oe BAWIPA, tamikalan yawhawi na poe vaiteh, minhmai kahawi hoi bahling patetlah na ramuk han.
