1 Chronicles 16
1 They brought in God’s ark, and set it in the middle of the tent that David had pitched for it; and they offered burnt offerings and peace offerings before God.
Sithaw ih thingkhong to phawh o moe, David mah sak ih kahni im aum ah suek o pacoengah, Sithaw hmaa ah hmai angbawnhaih hoi angdaeh angbawnhaih to sak o.
2 When David had finished offering the burnt offering and the peace offerings, he blessed the people in the LORD’s name.
David mah hmai angbawnhaih hoi angdaeh angbawnhaih sak pacoengah, Angraeng ih ahmin hoiah tahamhoihaih to paek.
3 He gave to everyone of Israel, both man and woman, to everyone a loaf of bread, a portion of meat, and a cake of raisins.
To pacoengah Israel nongpa nongpanawk boih khaeah, takaw phaek maeto, moi ngan maeto, misurthaih takaw karoem to a paek.
4 He appointed some of the Levites to minister before the LORD’s ark, and to commemorate, to thank, and to praise the LORD, the God of Israel:
Thoemto Levi kaminawk hanah loe, Angraeng lokkamhaih thingkhong hmaa ah toksak moe, Israel Angraeng Sithaw to saphaw pacoengah, anghoehaih lokthuihaih tok to a paek.
5 Asaph the chief, and second to him Zechariah, then Jeiel, Shemiramoth, Jehiel, Mattithiah, Eliab, Benaiah, Obed-Edom, and Jeiel, with stringed instruments and with harps; and Asaph with cymbals, sounding aloud;
Asaph loe lu koekah oh, hnetto haih ah Zekariah, anih pacoengah Jeiel, Shemiramoth, Jehiel, Mattithiah, Eliab, Benaiah, Obed-Edom cae to a suek; Jeiel loe aqui kapop katoeng hoi tamoinawk to kruek moe, Asaph mah cingceng to boh;
6 with Benaiah and Jahaziel the priests with shofars continually, before the ark of the covenant of God.
qaima Benaiah hoi Jahaziel hnik doeh Sithaw lokkamhaih thingkhong hmaa ah mongkah to ueng hoi toeng.
7 Then on that day David first ordained giving of thanks to the LORD by the hand of Asaph and his brothers.
To niah David mah Asaph hoi angmah ih nawkamyanawk khaeah, paek hmaloe ih anghoehaih hoi Angraeng saphawhaih saam laa to sak.
8 Oh give thanks to the LORD. Call on his name. Make what he has done known amongst the peoples.
Angraeng khaeah anghoehaih lok to thui oh, ahmin to kawk oh; a sak ih hmuennawk to kaminawk boih panoek o sak ah.
9 Sing to him. Sing praises to him. Tell of all his marvellous works.
Anih khaeah laa to sah oh, anih saphawhaih laa to sah oh, a sak ih dawnrai hmuennawk to thui oh.
10 Glory in his holy name. Let the heart of those who seek the LORD rejoice.
Anih ih kaciim ahmin to pakoeh oh; Angraeng pakrong kaminawk ih palungthin loe anghoe nasoe.
11 Seek the LORD and his strength. Seek his face forever more.
Angraeng hoi a thacakhaih to khen oh loe, anih ih mikhmai to khen o poe ah.
12 Remember his marvellous works that he has done, his wonders, and the judgements of his mouth,
A sak ih dawnrai hmuennawk hoi anghmang thok hmuennawk, a thuih ih lokcaekhaihnawk to panoek oh.
13 you offspring of Israel his servant, you children of Jacob, his chosen ones.
Aw a tamna Israel caanawk, Jakob ih caanawk, a qoih ih kaminawk.
14 He is the LORD our God. His judgements are in all the earth.
Anih loe aicae ih Angraeng Sithaw ah oh; a lokcaekhaih loe long nui boih ah oh.
15 Remember his covenant forever, the word which he commanded to a thousand generations,
Anih loe a sak ih lokmaihaih to panoek poe moe, a paek ih lok to caanawk dung khoek to panoek;
16 the covenant which he made with Abraham, his oath to Isaac.
Abraham hoi sak ih lokmaihaih, Isaak hoi sak ih lokmaihaih to panoek poe;
17 He confirmed it to Jacob for a statute, and to Israel for an everlasting covenant,
Jakob khaeah lok takroekhaih to caksak moe, Israel khaeah dungzan lokmaihaih to a caksak.
18 saying, “I will give you the land of Canaan, The lot of your inheritance,”
Na toep o han koi qawk ah kaom, Kanaan prae to kang paek han, tiah thuih.
19 when you were but a few men in number, yes, very few, and foreigners in it.
Nangcae loe nazetto doeh na om o ai, kami zetta ni na oh o, to prae thungah angvin ah ni na oh o.
20 They went about from nation to nation, from one kingdom to another people.
Nihcae loe prae maeto khaeah caeh o moe, kami maeto hoi maeto khaeah ah amhet o.
21 He allowed no man to do them wrong. Yes, he reproved kings for their sakes,
Nihcae to mi mah doeh pacaekthlaeksak ai, nihcae pongah siangpahrangnawk to a zoeh.
22 “Don’t touch my anointed ones! Do my prophets no harm!”
Situi ka bawh ih kaminawk hae sui hmah; kai ih tahmaanawk to pacaekthlaek o hmah, tiah a naa.
23 Sing to the LORD, all the earth! Display his salvation from day to day.
Long kaminawk boih, Angraeng khaeah laasah oh; nito pacoeng nito a pahlonghaih to thui oh.
24 Declare his glory amongst the nations, and his marvellous works amongst all the peoples.
A lensawkhaih to Sithaw panoek ai kaminawk khaeah thui oh loe, a sak ih dawnrai hmuen to prae kaminawk boih khaeah taphong oh.
25 For great is the LORD, and greatly to be praised. He also is to be feared above all gods.
Angraeng loe lensawk moe, pakoeh han krak; sithawnawk boih pongah doeh zitthoh kue.
26 For all the gods of the peoples are idols, but the LORD made the heavens.
Prae kalah kaminawk ih sithaw loe sakcop ih krang rumram tok ni; toe Angraeng mah loe vannawk to sak.
27 Honour and majesty are before him. Strength and gladness are in his place.
Anih hmaa ah lensawkhaih hoi pakoehhaih to oh moe, anih ohhaih ahmuen ah loe anghoehaih hoi thacakhaih to oh.
28 Ascribe to the LORD, you families of the peoples, ascribe to the LORD glory and strength!
Angraeng khaeah paek oh, prae boih ih canawknawk, Angraeng khaeah lensawkhaih hoi thacakhaih to paek oh.
29 Ascribe to the LORD the glory due to his name. Bring an offering, and come before him. Worship the LORD in holy array.
Angraeng ih ahmin loe lensawk, tiah thui oh; a hmaa ah angzo oh loe, hmuen to paek oh; ciimcai hmuen hoiah Angraeng to saphaw oh.
30 Tremble before him, all the earth. The world also is established that it can’t be moved.
Long boih, a hmaa ah tasoeh oh; long loe kacakah angdoe tih, angthui mak ai.
31 Let the heavens be glad, and let the earth rejoice! Let them say amongst the nations, “The LORD reigns!”
Vannawk anghoe o nasoe loe, long doeh anghoe nasoe; prae kaminawk boih khaeah, Angraeng mah uk, tiah thui o nasoe.
32 Let the sea roar, and its fullness! Let the field exult, and all that is in it!
Tuipui hoi a thungah kaom hmuennawk mah lok tacawt o sak nasoe loe, lawk thungah kaom hmuennawk boih, anghoe o nasoe.
33 Then the trees of the forest will sing for joy before the LORD, for he comes to judge the earth.
Anih loe long lokcaek hanah angzoh pongah, taw ih thingnawk mah laa to sah o tih.
34 Oh give thanks to the LORD, for he is good, for his loving kindness endures forever.
Angraeng loe hoih pongah, anih khaeah anghoehaih lok to thui oh; anih tahmenhaih loe dungzan khoek to cak.
35 Say, “Save us, God of our salvation! Gather us together and deliver us from the nations, to give thanks to your holy name, to triumph in your praise.”
Kaciim na hmin to ka pakoeh o moe, nang saphawhaih ah kam oek o thai hanah, Na pahlong ah, Aw Sithaw kaicae pahlongkung! Kaicae hae nawnto amkhuengsak loe, Sithaw panoek ai kaminawk thung hoiah na pahlong ah, tiah hang oh.
36 Blessed be the LORD, the God of Israel, from everlasting even to everlasting. All the people said, “Amen,” and praised the LORD.
Israel Angraeg Sithaw loe dungzan hoi dungzan khoek to tahamhoihaih om nasoe, tiah thuih naah, kaminawk boih mah Amen, Angraeng loe saphaw oh, tiah thuih o.
37 So he left Asaph and his brothers there before the ark of the LORD’s covenant, to minister before the ark continually, as every day’s work required;
David mah Asaph hoi angmah ih nawkamyanawk to Angraeng lokkamhaih thingkhong hmaa ah, ni thokkruek toksak hanah caehtaak;
38 and Obed-Edom with their sixty-eight relatives; Obed-Edom also the son of Jeduthun and Hosah to be doorkeepers;
Obed-Edom loe angmah ih nawkamya qui taruk, tazettonawk to nihcae bomkung ah oh o sak moe, Jeduthun capa Obed-Edom hoi Hosah loe khongkha toepkung ah oh hoi.
39 and Zadok the priest and his brothers the priests, before the LORD’s tabernacle in the high place that was at Gibeon,
David mah qaima Zadok hoi angmah ih nawkamya qaimanawk to, Gibeon ih hmuensang hoi Angraeng ih kahni im ah caehtaak,
40 to offer burnt offerings to the LORD on the altar of burnt offering continually morning and evening, even according to all that is written in the LORD’s law, which he commanded to Israel;
Angraeng khaeah aduem akhawn, hmaicam nuiah hmai angbawnhaih to sak moe, Israel kaminawk khaeah paek ih, cabu thungah tarik tangcae Angraeng ih kaalok baktih toengah, angbawnhaih sak o poe hanah a caehtaak.
41 and with them Heman and Jeduthun and the rest who were chosen, who were mentioned by name, to give thanks to the LORD, because his loving kindness endures forever;
Angraeng tahmenhaih loe dungzan khoek to cak pongah, Angraeng khaeah anghoehaih lawkthuih hanah, nihcae hoi nawnto kaom kaminawk hoi nawnto Heman hoi Jeduthun pacoengah, qoih moe, ahmin lak ih kaminawk doeh oh o;
42 and with them Heman and Jeduthun with shofars and cymbals for those that should sound aloud, and with instruments for the songs of God, and the sons of Jeduthun to be at the gate.
Heman hoi Jeduthun loe mongkah, cingceng hoi Sithaw ih katoeng kruekhaih bangah toksahkung ah oh hoi. Jeduthun ih caanawk loe khongkha toepkung ah oh o.
43 All the people departed, each man to his house; and David returned to bless his house.
To pacoengah kaminawk boih angmacae im ah amlaem o; to tiah David doeh angmah ih imthung takoh tahamhoihaih paek hanah amlaem toeng.
