1Ka thacakhaih, Aw Angraeng, nang kang palung han.
1I love You, O LORD, my strength.
2Angraeng loe ka lungsong, kacak kai ih sipae hoi kai pahlongkung ah oh: ka Sithaw, ka thacakhaih, ka buephaih, kang vaenghaih, ka loihhaih taki, kai ih imsang ah oh.
2The LORD is my rock, my fortress, and my deliverer. My God is my rock, in whom I take refuge, my shield, and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold.
3Pakoeh han krah Sithaw to ka kawk han, anih mah ka misanawk ban thung hoiah na pahlong tih.
3I will call upon the LORD, who is worthy to be praised; so shall I be saved from my enemies.
4Duekhaih quinawk mah ang zaeng moe, Sithaw panoek ai kaminawk ih tuiphu mah zithaih hoiah ang ohsak.
4The cords of death encompassed me; the torrents of chaos overwhelmed me.
5Hell qui mah ang zaeng kang moe, duekhaih thaang mah ang maah khoep.
5The cords of Sheol entangled me; the snares of death confronted me.
6Dawnrai naah Angraeng to ka kawk, ka Sithaw to ka palawk: anih mah angmah ih tempul thung hoiah ka lok ang tahngaih pae; ka hanghaih lok loe anih hmaa ah phak moe, anih ih naa thungah akun.
6In my distress I called upon the LORD; I cried to my God for help. From His temple He heard my voice, and my cry for His help reached His ears.
7Anih palungphui naah, long anghuen moe, tasoeh; maenawk ohhaih takung khoek to anghuen moe, angthuih.
7Then the earth shook and quaked, and the foundations of the mountains trembled; they were shaken because He burned with anger.
8Anih ih hnah thung hoiah hmaikhue tacawt moe, anih pakha thung ih hmai mah kangh pongah, to ih hmaipalai hoiah hmai to amngaeh.
8Smoke rose from His nostrils, and consuming fire came from His mouth; glowing coals blazed forth.
9Anih mah van to takoih moe, pahnaem tathuk; kaving loe anih ih khok tlim ah oh.
9He parted the heavens and came down with dark clouds beneath His feet.
10Anih loe Cherubim nuiah angthueng moe, azawk: ue, anih loe takhi ih pakhraehnawk nuiah azawk.
10He mounted a cherub and flew; He soared on the wings of the wind.
11Anih loe angmah anghawk haih hanah vinghaih to sak moe, kaving khak tuinawk hoi kathah van ih tamainawk mah anih to takui o.
11He made darkness His hiding place, and storm clouds a canopy around Him.
12A hmaa ah aanghaih oh pongah, kathah tamainawk mah qaetui hoi hmai kamngaeh thlung to sin o moe, hmabang ah caeh o.
12From the brightness of His presence His clouds advanced— hailstones and coals of fire.
13Angraeng loe van ah doeh khopazihsak moe, Sang koek mah qaetui hoi hmai kamngaeh thlungnawk hanah lok a paek.
13The LORD thundered from heaven; the voice of the Most High resounded— hailstones and coals of fire.
14Ue, anih loe angmah ih palaanawk to kah; tangphra a pueksak pongah, misanawk anghaehsak phang moe, a sungsak.
14He shot His arrows and scattered the foes; He hurled lightning and routed them.
15Aw Angraeng, na thuitaekhaih hoi na hnah thung ih takhi nang hahhaih hoiah, tui longhaih loklamnawk to amtueng moe, long angdoethaih doeh amtueng.
15The channels of the sea appeared, and the foundations of the world were exposed, at Your rebuke, O LORD, at the blast of the breath of Your nostrils.
16Anih loe ranui bang hoiah ban to payangh, kai ang patawnh moe, pop parai tuinawk thung hoiah kai to azuh tahang.
16He reached down from on high and took hold of me; He drew me out of deep waters.
17Anih mah kai hnuma kaminawk, kai han paroeai thacak, ka misanawk ban thung hoiah ang pahlong.
17He rescued me from my powerful enemy, from foes too mighty for me.
18Kam rohaih niah nihcae mah ang maah o khoep; toe Angraeng loe ka buephaih ah oh.
18They confronted me in my day of calamity, but the LORD was my support.
19Anih mah kalen parai imthung ah ang caeh haih; ka nuiah palung a tongh pongah, anih mah ang pahlong.
19He brought me out into the open; He rescued me because He delighted in me.
20Angraeng mah ka toenghaih baktih toengah, tangqum to ang paek, ka ban ciimhaih baktih toengah atho ang paek let.
20The LORD has rewarded me according to my righteousness; He has repaid me according to the cleanness of my hands.
21Angraeng ih loklamnawk to ka pazui pongah, zaehaih sak hanah Sithaw to ka caeh taak ai.
21For I have kept the ways of the LORD and have not wickedly departed from my God.
22A lok takroekhaihnawk boih loe ka hmaa ah oh, anih mah sak ih daannawk ka pahnawt vai ai.
22For all His ordinances are before me; I have not disregarded His statutes.
23A hmaa ah toenghaih hoiah kho ka sak moe, zaehaih to ka caeh taak.
23And I have been blameless before Him and kept myself from iniquity.
24To pongah ka toenghaih baktih, a mikhnuk ah ka ban ciimhaih baktih toengah, Angraeng mah tangqum to ang paek.
24So the LORD has repaid me according to my righteousness, according to the cleanness of my hands in His sight.
25Nang loe tahmen thaih kami khaeah tahmenhaih nam tuengsak moe, katoeng kami khaeah toenghaih to nam tuengsak;
25To the faithful You show Yourself faithful, to the blameless You show Yourself blameless;
26Kaciim kami khaeah ciimhaih nam tuengsak moe, poek angkoih kami khaeah poek angkoihaih to nam tuegsak.
26to the pure You show Yourself pure, but to the crooked You show Yourself shrewd.
27Mi tlim ah khosah kaminawk to na pahlong; toe kasang ah mikpadai kaminawk loe na pakhrak tathuk.
27For You save an afflicted people, but You humble those with haughty eyes.
28Aw Angraeng, kai ih hmaithawk nang paaang pae, ka Angraeng Sithaw mah ka vinghaih hae na aangsak tih.
28For You, O LORD, light my lamp; my God lights up my darkness.
29Nang oephaih rang hoiah misa to ka patom moe, ka Sithaw oephaih rang hoiah ni sipae to ka poeng thaih.
29For in You I can charge an army, and with my God I can scale a wall.
30Sithaw ih loklam loe acung: Angraeng ih lok loe coek han koi om ai. Anih loe angmah khaeah abuep kaminawk boih hanah angvaenghaih ah oh.
30As for God, His way is perfect; the word of the LORD is flawless. He is a shield to all who take refuge in Him.
31Angraeng pacoengah mi maw Sithaw ah kaom vop? To tih ai boeh loe aicae Sithaw ai ah loe mi maw lungsong ah kaom?
31For who is God besides the LORD? And who is the Rock except our God?
32Sithaw mah thacakhaih kazii hoiah ang zaeng moe, ka caehhaih loklam to acungsak.
32It is God who arms me with strength and makes my way clear.
33Tasuk khok baktiah ka khok hae ang sak pae moe, ka ohhaih hmuensangnawk ah ang suek.
33He makes my feet like those of a deer and stations me upon the heights.
34Misatuk kop hanah ka ban ang patoh pae, to naah ni ka ban mah sum kalii to takoih thai vop.
34He trains my hands for battle; my arms can bend a bow of bronze.
35Kai nang pakaa moe, na pahlonghaih to nang paek: na bantang ban hoiah nang zaeh moe, na tuinom hoihaih hoiah nang lensak boeh.
35You have given me Your shield of salvation; Your right hand upholds me, and Your gentleness exalts me.
36Ka caehhaih loklam to na kawksak pongah, ka khok hae amkhraeng thai ai.
36You broaden the path beneath me so that my ankles do not give way.
37Ka misanawk ka patom moe, ka kae: nihcae amro ai karoek to kam laem let ai.
37I pursued my enemies and overtook them; I did not turn back until they were consumed.
38Nihcae loe ka khok tlim ah amtimh o: angthawk thai ai khoek to nihcae to ka tit.
38I crushed them so they could not rise; they have fallen under my feet.
39Misatuk hanah thacakhaih kazii hoiah nang zaeng; ka misanawk ka khok tlim ah na kuepsak.
39You have armed me with strength for battle; You have subdued my foes beneath me.
40Kai hnuma kaminawk ka hum thai hanah, ka misanawk ih tahnongnawk doeh nang paek.
40You have made my enemies retreat before me; I put an end to those who hated me.
41Nihcae loe hang o, toe pahlongkung tawn o ai; Angraeng khaeah a hang o, toe anih mah pathim pae ai.
41They cried for help, but there was no one to save them— to the LORD, but He did not answer.
42To naah nihcae to adip pueng ah ka hnoih moe, takhi nuiah maiphu takhoek ih baktih toengah ka takhoek: nihcae to loklam ih maiphu baktiah ka haeh.
42I ground them as dust in the face of the wind; I trampled them like mud in the streets.
43Kai naeh kaminawk ih ban thung hoiah nang loisak moe, sithaw panoek ai kaminawk ih lu ah nang suek; panoek ai ih kaminawk doeh kai ih tok to a sak o.
43You have delivered me from the strife of the people; You have made me the head of nations; a people I had not known shall serve me.
44Kai ih tamthang a thaih o naah, ka lok to tahngaih o; panoek ai ih kaminawk loe angmacae koeh ah ka hmaa ah ang paek o.
44When they hear me, they obey me; foreigners cower before me.
45Panoek ai ih kaminawk loe palung boeng o moe, angmacae ohhaih ahmuen hoi tasoehhaih hoiah angzoh o.
45Foreigners lose heart and come trembling from their strongholds.
46Angraeng loe hing! Ka lungsong loe tahamhoihaih om nasoe! Kai pahlongkung Sithaw loe, pakoehhaih om nasoe.
46The LORD lives, and blessed be my Rock! And may the God of my salvation be exalted—
47Kai hanah lulak moe, kaminawk kai tlim ah kuepsakkung loe, Sithaw ni.
47the God who avenges me and subdues nations beneath me,
48Ka misanawk thung hoiah anih mah ang pahlong; ue, ka misanawk ranuiah kai nang toengh tahang: amrosak thaih kami ban thung hoiah nang pahlong.
48who delivers me from my enemies. You exalt me above my foes; You rescue me from violent men.
49To pongah aw Angraeng, kai loe Sithaw panoek ai kaminawk salakah, nang khaeah anghoehaih lawk ka thuih moe, na hmin pakoehhaih laa to ka sak han.
49Therefore I will praise You, O LORD, among the nations; I will sing praises to Your name.
50Anih mah angmah ih siangpahrang khaeah kalen parai loisakhaih to paek moe, situi a bawh ih David hoi angmah ih acaengnawk khaeah boeng thai ai palungnathaih to amtuengsak.
50Great salvation He brings to His king. He shows loving devotion to His anointed, to David and his descendants forever.
