Baibal Olcim (Matupi Chin)
1Contend with my opponents, O LORD; fight against those who fight against me.
1Aw BOEIPA, kai aka nen ka lungawn te han nen lah.
2Take up Your shield and buckler; arise and come to my aid.
2Kai bomnah ham photling neh photlinglen te muk lamtah thoo lah.
3Draw the spear and javelin against my pursuers; say to my soul: “I am your salvation.”
3Kai aka hloem rhoek te caai neh khoh lamtah sulbung neh ham mah lah. Ka hinglu taengah, “Kai tah nang kah khangnah ni,” ti nah saeh.
4May those who seek my life be disgraced and put to shame; may those who plan to harm me be driven back and confounded.
4Ka hinglu aka mae rhoek he yahpok saeh lamtah a hmaithae uh saeh. Kai a thae la aka moeh rhoek te a hnuk la balkhong uh saeh lamtah ngam uh saeh.
5May they be like chaff in the wind, as the angel of the LORD drives them away.
5Khohli dong kah cangkik bangla om uh saeh lamtah BOEIPA kah puencawn loh hawk nawn saeh.
6May their path be dark and slick, as the angel of the LORD pursues.
6Amih kah longpuei te hmaisuep neh longhnal la om saeh lamtah BOEIPA kah puencawn loh amih te hloem saeh.
7For without cause they laid their net for me; without reason they dug a pit for my soul.
7A tloengtlaih van la kai ham lawk a tung uh tih ka hinglu ham vaam a too uh.
8May ruin befall them by surprise; may the net they hid ensnare them; may they fall into the hazard they created.
8Anih kah a ming mueh la khohli rhamrhael loh kae saeh lamtah lawk a tung te amah man saeh. Anih taengah khohli rhamrhael la tlak thil saeh.
9Then my soul will rejoice in the LORD and exult in His salvation.
9Te vaengah ka hinglu loh BOEIPA ah omngaih vetih amah kah khangnah dongah ngaingaih ni.
10All my bones will exclaim, “Who is like You, O LORD, who delivers the afflicted from the aggressor, the poor and needy from the robber?”
10Ka rhuh ka rhong boeih loh, “Mangdaeng te amah lakah tlungluen kut lamkah, mangdaeng neh khodaeng te khaw anih aka rheth kut lamkah BOEIPA nang bangla aka huul te unim?,” ti uh saeh.
11Hostile witnesses come forward; they make charges I know nothing about.
11Kuthlahnah kah laipai rhoek te ha tlai uh tih kai loh ka ming mueh te n'dawt uh.
12They repay me evil for good, to the bereavement of my soul.
12Ka hinglu kah polpainah ham a then yueng la boethae neh kai n'thuung uh.
13Yet when they were ill, I put on sackcloth; I humbled myself with fasting, but my prayers returned unanswered.
13Tedae kai tah amih te tloh a nue vaengah tlamhni ka pueinak nah. Ka hinglu he yaehnah neh ka phaep vaengah ka thangthuinah loh ka kodang la ha bal.
14I paced about as for my friend or brother; I was bowed down with grief, like one mourning for his mother.
14Pay a bangla ka manuca bangla ka ngai. A nu kah rhahdoe cangpoem bangla ka van tih kopang doela lu ka singling.
15But when I stumbled, they assembled in glee; they gathered together against me. Assailants I did not know slandered me without ceasing.
15Tedae ka cungdonah te ko a khah uh tih tingtun uh. Hlanghaeng rhoek loh ka ming pawt vaengah ka taengah tingtun uh. Kai n'hliphen uh vaengah toeng uh pawh.
16Like godless jesters at a feast, they gnashed their teeth at me.
16Lailak loh kai he buh bangla tamdaengtamkha neh a no n'tah thil uh.
17How long, O Lord, will You look on? Rescue my soul from their ravages, my precious life from these lions.
17Aw Boeipa, mevaeng hil nim nan sawt sut ve? Ka hinglu he khohli rhamrhael lamloh, ka oingaih cangloeng te sathuengca kut lamloh han doek lah.
18Then I will give You thanks in the great assembly; I will praise You among many people.
18Hlangping a yet taengah nang kan uem vetih pilnam rhaengpuei lakli ah nang kan thangthen ni.
19Let not my enemies gloat over me without cause, nor those who hate me without reason wink in malice.
19A hong mai khaw ka thunkha rhoek loh kai dongah n'kokhah uh tih a lunglilungla la kai aka hmuhuet loh a mik m'mikhip thil boel saeh.
20For they do not speak peace, but they devise deceitful schemes against those who live quietly in the land.
20Rhoepnah a thui uh mueh la khohmuen he dingsuek tila thailatnah ol te a moeh uh.
21They gape at me and say, “Aha, aha! Our eyes have seen!”
21Te dongah kai taengah a ka a ang uh tih, “Ahuei ahuei mamih mik loh a hmuh coeng,” a ti uh.
22O LORD, You have seen it; be not silent. O Lord, be not far from me.
22Na hmuh coeng BOEIPA. Na hilphah boeh. Kai taeng lamkah n'lakhla tak boeh ka Boeipa.
23Awake and rise to my defense, to my cause, my God and my Lord!
23Kamah kah tuituknah dongah kai ka tiktamnah ham haenghang lamtah thoo laeh ka Pathen neh ka Boeipa.
24Vindicate me by Your righteousness, O LORD my God, and do not let them gloat over me.
24Ka BOEIPA Pathen aw, na duengnah neh kai n'tang sak lamtah kai soah a kokhap uh boel saeh.
25Let them not say in their hearts, “Aha, just what we wanted!” Let them not say, “We have swallowed him up!”
25Amih lungbuei ah, “Ahuei, mamih hinglu soep coeng,” ti uh boel saehAnih.” n'dolh uh coeng, “ti uh boel saeh.
26May those who gloat in my distress be ashamed and confounded; may those who exalt themselves over me be clothed in shame and reproach.
26Kai kah yoethae soah ko aka hoe rhoek te rhenten yak uh saeh lamtah ngam uh saeh. Kai soah aka pomsang rhoe te yahpohnah neh mingthae loh khuk saeh.
27May those who favor my vindication shout for joy and gladness; may they always say, “Exalted be the LORD who delights in His servant’s well-being.”
27Kai kah duengnah aka omtoem rhoek loh tamhoe uh lamtah a kohoe uh saeh. Te dongah a sal kah ngaimongnah aka omtoem BOEIPA tah pomsang pai saeh,” ti uh yoeyah saeh.
28Then my tongue will proclaim Your righteousness and Your praises all day long.
28Te vaengah na duengnah neh namah koehnah te ka olka loh hnin at puet thuep saeh.
