Psalms 54

1 For the Chief Musician. On stringed instruments. A contemplation by David, when the Ziphites came and said to Saul, “Isn’t David hiding himself amongst us?” Save me, God, by your name. Vindicate me in your might.

O Pathen thaneitah in hung’in lang neihuhdoh in! Na thahatnan nei veng’in.

2 Hear my prayer, God. Listen to the words of my mouth.

O Pathen ka taona ngaijin, ka thumna hi neihin gelkhoh peh’in,

3 For strangers have risen up against me. Violent men have sought after my soul. They haven’t set God before them. (Selah)

Ajeh chu gamdang mite’n eihin delkhum uvin, mi engse ten tha ding’in eihol’un ahi, amahon Pathen imachan agel pouve.

4 Behold, God is my helper. The Lord is the one who sustains my soul.

Ahinlah kei ding’in Pathen hi eipanpi ahin, Pakai hin eihinghoi ahi.

5 He will repay the evil to my enemies. Destroy them in your truth.

Ka galmi ten thilse agon jouse’u hi amaho chung ma ma ah chuhen! Na dei dan dan’in achung'uva na tong’in lang amaho khu subei in.

6 With a free will offering, I will sacrifice to you. I will give thanks to your name, LORD, for it is good.

Keiman naheng a kiphal tah in thilpeh hinchoi ing e; Keiman namin hinthang vah ing kate Pakai, ajeh chu hichu apha ahi.

7 For he has delivered me out of all trouble. My eye has seen triumph over my enemies.

Ajeh chu Pakai nang’in ka hesohna a kon’in neihuhdoh tan, ka galmite chung’a jong galjona neimusah tan ahi.
