1Ka thacakhaih, Aw Angraeng, nang kang palung han.
1I love you, 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, my rock, in whom I take refuge; my shield, and the horn of my salvation, my high tower.
3Pakoeh han krah Sithaw to ka kawk han, anih mah ka misanawk ban thung hoiah na pahlong tih.
3I call on the LORD, who is worthy to be praised; and I am 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 surrounded me. The floods of ungodliness made me afraid.
5Hell qui mah ang zaeng kang moe, duekhaih thaang mah ang maah khoep.
5The cords of Sheol were around me. The snares of death came on 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 on the LORD, and cried to my God. He heard my voice out of his temple. My cry before him came into his ears.
7Anih palungphui naah, long anghuen moe, tasoeh; maenawk ohhaih takung khoek to anghuen moe, angthuih.
7Then the earth shook and trembled. The foundations also of the mountains quaked and were shaken, because he was angry.
8Anih ih hnah thung hoiah hmaikhue tacawt moe, anih pakha thung ih hmai mah kangh pongah, to ih hmaipalai hoiah hmai to amngaeh.
8Smoke went out of his nostrils. Consuming fire came out of his mouth. Coals were kindled by it.
9Anih mah van to takoih moe, pahnaem tathuk; kaving loe anih ih khok tlim ah oh.
9He bowed the heavens also, and came down. Thick darkness was under his feet.
10Anih loe Cherubim nuiah angthueng moe, azawk: ue, anih loe takhi ih pakhraehnawk nuiah azawk.
10He rode on a cherub, and flew. Yes, 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, his pavilion around him, darkness of waters, thick clouds of the skies.
12A hmaa ah aanghaih oh pongah, kathah tamainawk mah qaetui hoi hmai kamngaeh thlung to sin o moe, hmabang ah caeh o.
12At the brightness before him his thick clouds passed, 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 also thundered in the sky. The Most High uttered his voice: hailstones and coals of fire.
14Ue, anih loe angmah ih palaanawk to kah; tangphra a pueksak pongah, misanawk anghaehsak phang moe, a sungsak.
14He sent out his arrows, and scattered them. He routed them with great lightning bolts.
15Aw Angraeng, na thuitaekhaih hoi na hnah thung ih takhi nang hahhaih hoiah, tui longhaih loklamnawk to amtueng moe, long angdoethaih doeh amtueng.
15Then the channels of waters appeared. The foundations of the world were laid bare at your rebuke, 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 sent from on high. He took me. He drew me out of many waters.
17Anih mah kai hnuma kaminawk, kai han paroeai thacak, ka misanawk ban thung hoiah ang pahlong.
17He delivered me from my strong enemy, from those who hated me; for they were too mighty for me.
18Kam rohaih niah nihcae mah ang maah o khoep; toe Angraeng loe ka buephaih ah oh.
18They came on me in the day of my 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 also into a large place. He delivered 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. According to the cleanness of my hands, he has recompensed me.
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 were before me. I didn’t put away his statutes from me.
23A hmaa ah toenghaih hoiah kho ka sak moe, zaehaih to ka caeh taak.
23I was also blameless with him. I kept myself from my iniquity.
24To pongah ka toenghaih baktih, a mikhnuk ah ka ban ciimhaih baktih toengah, Angraeng mah tangqum to ang paek.
24Therefore the LORD has rewarded me according to my righteousness, according to the cleanness of my hands in his eyesight.
25Nang loe tahmen thaih kami khaeah tahmenhaih nam tuengsak moe, katoeng kami khaeah toenghaih to nam tuengsak;
25With the merciful you will show yourself merciful. With the perfect man, you will show yourself perfect.
26Kaciim kami khaeah ciimhaih nam tuengsak moe, poek angkoih kami khaeah poek angkoihaih to nam tuegsak.
26With the pure, you will show yourself pure. With the crooked you will show yourself shrewd.
27Mi tlim ah khosah kaminawk to na pahlong; toe kasang ah mikpadai kaminawk loe na pakhrak tathuk.
27For you will save the afflicted people, but the arrogant eyes you will bring down.
28Aw Angraeng, kai ih hmaithawk nang paaang pae, ka Angraeng Sithaw mah ka vinghaih hae na aangsak tih.
28For you will light my lamp, LORD. My God will light up my darkness.
29Nang oephaih rang hoiah misa to ka patom moe, ka Sithaw oephaih rang hoiah ni sipae to ka poeng thaih.
29For by you, I advance through a troop. By my God, I leap over 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 LORD’s word is tried. He is a shield to all those 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, except the LORD? Who is a rock, besides our God,
32Sithaw mah thacakhaih kazii hoiah ang zaeng moe, ka caehhaih loklam to acungsak.
32the God who arms me with strength, and makes my way perfect?
33Tasuk khok baktiah ka khok hae ang sak pae moe, ka ohhaih hmuensangnawk ah ang suek.
33He makes my feet like deer’s feet, and sets me on my high places.
34Misatuk kop hanah ka ban ang patoh pae, to naah ni ka ban mah sum kalii to takoih thai vop.
34He teaches my hands to war, so that my arms 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 also given me the shield of your salvation. Your right hand sustains me. Your gentleness has made me great.
36Ka caehhaih loklam to na kawksak pongah, ka khok hae amkhraeng thai ai.
36You have enlarged my steps under me, My feet have not slipped.
37Ka misanawk ka patom moe, ka kae: nihcae amro ai karoek to kam laem let ai.
37I will pursue my enemies, and overtake them. I won’t turn away until they are consumed.
38Nihcae loe ka khok tlim ah amtimh o: angthawk thai ai khoek to nihcae to ka tit.
38I will strike them through, so that they will not be able to rise. They shall fall under my feet.
39Misatuk hanah thacakhaih kazii hoiah nang zaeng; ka misanawk ka khok tlim ah na kuepsak.
39For you have armed me with strength to the battle. You have subdued under me those who rose up against me.
40Kai hnuma kaminawk ka hum thai hanah, ka misanawk ih tahnongnawk doeh nang paek.
40You have also made my enemies turn their backs to me, that I might cut off those who hate me.
41Nihcae loe hang o, toe pahlongkung tawn o ai; Angraeng khaeah a hang o, toe anih mah pathim pae ai.
41They cried, but there was no one to save; even to the LORD, but he didn’t answer them.
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.
42Then I beat them small as the dust before the wind. I cast them out as the mire of 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 strivings of the people. You have made me the head of the nations. A people whom I have 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.
44As soon as they hear of me they shall obey me. The foreigners shall submit themselves to me.
45Panoek ai ih kaminawk loe palung boeng o moe, angmacae ohhaih ahmuen hoi tasoehhaih hoiah angzoh o.
45The foreigners shall fade away, and shall come trembling out of their strongholds.
46Angraeng loe hing! Ka lungsong loe tahamhoihaih om nasoe! Kai pahlongkung Sithaw loe, pakoehhaih om nasoe.
46The LORD lives! Blessed be my rock. Exalted be the God of my salvation,
47Kai hanah lulak moe, kaminawk kai tlim ah kuepsakkung loe, Sithaw ni.
47even the God who executes vengeance for me, and subdues peoples under 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.
48He rescues me from my enemies. Yes, you lift me up above those who rise up against me. You deliver me from the violent man.
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 give thanks to you, LORD, among the nations, and 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.
50He gives great deliverance to his king, and shows loving kindness to his anointed, to David and to his offspring, forever more.
