Psalms 102
1 A Prayer of the afflicted, when he is overwhelmed and pours out his complaint before the LORD. Hear my prayer, LORD! Let my cry come to you.
Patangkhang kami lawkthuihaih. A tha boeng sut naah Angraeng hmaa ah palungnat hoi lawkthuihaih. Aw Angraeng, lawk ka thuihaih hae tahngai ah; ka qahhaih lok loe nang khaeah pha nasoe.
2 Don’t hide your face from me in the day of my distress. Turn your ear to me. Answer me quickly in the day when I call.
Raihaih ka tong naah kai khae hoi mikhmai hawk ving hmah; na naa to kai khae bangah patueng ah; kang kawk naah, karangah na pathim ah.
3 For my days consume away like smoke. My bones are burnt as a torch.
Kai ih aninawk loe hmaikhue baktiah azawk o moe, ka huhnawk doeh hmai kamngaeh baktiah kangh.
4 My heart is blighted like grass, and withered, for I forget to eat my bread.
Ka palungthin loe zaek moe, qam baktiah azaem; buhcaak hanah doeh ka pahnet sut boeh.
5 By reason of the voice of my groaning, my bones stick to my skin.
Ka haam loiah ka huhnawk doeh ka ngan hin hoiah angbet caeng boeh.
6 I am like a pelican of the wilderness. I have become as an owl of the waste places.
Kai loe praezaek ih bukbuh baktih; long karoem ahmuen ih tavaa baktiah ni ka oh sut boeh.
7 I watch, and have become like a sparrow that is alone on the housetop.
Kai loe iip ai ah ka oh, angmabueng kaom imphu ih parit tavaa baktiah ni ka oh boeh.
8 My enemies reproach me all day. Those who are mad at me use my name as a curse.
Ka misanawk mah ni thokkruek kasae ang thuih o; kai pahnui thuih kaminawk loe kai ih misa ah oh hanah lokthuih o.
9 For I have eaten ashes like bread, and mixed my drink with tears,
Maiphunawk to buh baktiah ka caak; ka naek han koi doeh mikkhraetui hoiah angbaeh,
10 because of your indignation and your wrath; for you have taken me up and thrown me away.
dip thai ai ah palung na phui pongah, kai hae nang toengh tahang moe, long ah nang vah tathuk ving.
11 My days are like a long shadow. I have withered like grass.
Ka hinghaih aninawk loe kasawk tahlip baktiah oh moe, qam baktiah ka zaem.
12 But you, LORD, will remain forever; your renown endures to all generations.
Toe Angraeng nang loe dungzan khoek to cak; na hmin panoekhaih doeh adungh kaminawk boih khoek to cak.
13 You will arise and have mercy on Zion, for it is time to have pity on her. Yes, the set time has come.
Nang loe angthawk ueloe, Zion nuiah palungnathaih na tawn vop tih; anih tahmenhaih atue, atue khaehhaih atue angzoh boeh.
14 For your servants take pleasure in her stones, and have pity on her dust.
Na tamnanawk loe to ih thlungnawk to koeh o moe, maiphu doeh koeh o.
15 So the nations will fear the LORD’s name, all the kings of the earth your glory.
Sithaw panoek ai kaminawk mah Angraeng ih ahmin to zii o ueloe, long ih siangpahrangnawk boih mah a lensawkhaih to zii o tih.
16 For the LORD has built up Zion. He has appeared in his glory.
Angraeng mah Zion to pakhraih naah, anih loe a lensawkhaih hoiah angphong tih.
17 He has responded to the prayer of the destitute, and has not despised their prayer.
Amtang kaminawk lawkthuihaih lok to anih mah pathim pae tih, nihcae lawkthuihaih to patoek pae mak ai.
18 This will be written for the generation to come. A people which will be created will praise the LORD,
Hae kawng hae angzo han koi adung kaminawk hanah tarik tih; a sak ih kaminawk mah Angraeng to saphaw o tih.
19 for he has looked down from the height of his sanctuary. From heaven, the LORD saw the earth,
Angraeng loe kasang angmah ih hmuenciim hoiah khet tathuk moe, van hoiah long to a dan tathuk,
20 to hear the groans of the prisoner, to free those who are condemned to death,
thongkrah kaminawk hanghaih lok to tahngai pae, kadueh tom kaminawk to loisak hanah,
21 that men may declare the LORD’s name in Zion, and his praise in Jerusalem,
Zion ah Angraeng ih ahmin to taphong moe, Jerusalem ah anih saphawhaih laa to sak pacoengah,
22 when the peoples are gathered together, the kingdoms, to serve the LORD.
Angraeng ih tok sak hanah, kaminawk hoi praenawk nawnto amkhueng o tih.
23 He weakened my strength along the course. He shortened my days.
Loklam ka caeh li naah anih mah tha ang zoksak; kai ih aninawk to ang duemsak.
24 I said, “My God, don’t take me away in the middle of my days. Your years are throughout all generations.
To pongah kai mah, Aw ka Sithaw, khosak hoih li naah ka hinghaih na la pae ving hmah; nang ih saningnawk loe angzo han koi adung kaminawk khoek to oh.
25 Of old, you laid the foundation of the earth. The heavens are the work of your hands.
Tangsuek nathuem hoi boeh ni long hae na sak; vannawk loe na ban hoiah sak ih hmuen ah ni oh o.
26 They will perish, but you will endure. Yes, all of them will wear out like a garment. You will change them like a cloak, and they will be changed.
Nihcae loe anghma angtaa o tih, toe nang loe na om poe tih; ue, nihcae loe kahni baktiah prawn o boih tih; nihcae to kahni baktiah nam khraisak tih, to naah nihcae loe amkhraih o tih.
27 But you are the same. Your years will have no end.
Toe nang loe nangmah toeng roengah ni om tih; na saningnawk loe boenghaih om mak ai.
28 The children of your servants will continue. Their offspring will be established before you.”
Na tamnanawk ih caanawk loe apet ai ah om o tih, nihcae ih atii loe na hmaa ah kacakah om o tih.
