Asang Khongca Bible (Eastern Khumi Chin, 2019)
JPS Tanakh (Jewish Publication Society, 1917)
1Hmuensae sah kaminawk pongah palungboeng hmah loe, nihcae to awt hmah.
1A Psalm of David. Fret not thyself because of evil-doers, neither be thou envious against them that work unrighteousness.
2Nihcae loe akra ai ah qam baktiah aat ueloe, qam kahing baktiah azaem o tih.
2For they shall soon wither like the grass, and fade as the green herb.
3Angraeng to oep ah loe, kahoih hmuen to sah ah; prae thungah om ah loe, poek caksak ah.
3Trust in the LORD, and do good; dwell in the land, and cherish faithfulness.
4Angraeng ah anghoehaih tawn ah, to tih nahaeloe palung thung hoi na koeh ih hmuen to na paek tih.
4So shalt thou delight thyself in the LORD; and He shall give thee the petitions of thy heart.
5Na caehhaih loklam to Angraeng khaeah aap ah; anih to oep ah; to tih nahaeloe angmah na hoi tih.
5Commit thy way unto the LORD; trust also in Him, and He will bring it to pass.
6Anih mah loe na toenghaih to hmai baktih, katoengah takroek ih lok to athun ih ni aengh baktiah aangsak tih.
6And He will make thy righteousness to go forth as the light, and thy right as the noonday.
7Angraeng hmaa ah anghngai duem ah loe, anih to palungsawkhaih hoiah zing ah: a caehhaih loklam amkah hanah toksah thaih, sethaih poeng hanah toksah thaih kami pongah palungboeng hmah.
7Resign thyself unto the LORD, and wait patiently for Him; fret not thyself because of him who prospereth in his way, because of the man who bringeth wicked devices to pass.
8Palungphui hmah loe, palung doeh baesak hmah: zaehaih sak hanah kahoih ai poekhaih to tawn hmah.
8Cease from anger, and forsake wrath; fret not thyself, it tendeth only to evil-doing.
9Sethaih sah kaminawk loe pahnawt sut ah om tih, toe Angraeng zing kaminawk loe long to toep o tih.
9For evil-doers shall be cut off; but those that wait for the LORD, they shall inherit the land.
10Sethaih sah kami loe akra ai ah om mak ai boeh: ue, anih ih ahmuen to na pakrong khing cadoeh, na hnu mak ai.
10And yet a little while, and the wicked is no more; yea, thou shalt look well at his place, and he is not.
11Toe tuinom tawn kaminawk loe long hae toep o ueloe, kating ai monghaih hoiah khosak nawm o tih.
11But the humble shall inherit the land, and delight themselves in the abundance of peace.
12Kasae kami mah loe katoeng kami to pacaeng moe, haa a kaek thuih.
12The wicked plotteth against the righteous, and gnasheth at him with his teeth.
13Toe anih ih atue pha tih boeh, tiah Angraeng mah panoek pongah, anih to pahnui thuih.
13The Lord doth laugh at him; for He seeth that his day is coming.
14Kasae kaminawk mah amtang kaminawk to amtimsak moe, toenghaih sah kaminawk to hum hanah, sumsen aphong thuih pacoengah, kalii to anueng thuih.
14The wicked have drawn out the sword, and have bent their bow; to cast down the poor and needy, to slay such as are upright in the way;
15Toe angmacae ih sumsen mah angmacae ih palung to thun pae ueloe, palaanawk doeh angkhaek pae tih.
15Their sword shall enter into their own heart, and their bows shall be broken.
16Kahoih ai kami angraeng parai pongah loe, katoeng kami mah tawn ih hmuen zetta to hoih kue.
16Better is a little that the righteous hath than the abundance of many wicked.
17Kasae kami ih ban loe angkhaek tih: toe katoeng kami loe Angraeng mah patawnh.
17For the arms of the wicked shall be broken; but the LORD upholdeth the righteous.
18Katoeng kaminawk ih aninawk loe Angraeng mah panoek pae: nihcae ih qawk loe dungzan khoek to cak poe tih.
18The LORD knoweth the days of them that are wholehearted; and their inheritance shall be for ever.
19Nihcae loe sethaih tue phak naah azatpaw o mak ai; takaang thohhaih atue naah doeh zok amhah o tih.
19They shall not be ashamed in the time of evil; and in the days of famine they shall be satisfied.
20Toe kahoih ai kami loe anghma angtaa tih: Angraeng ih misanawk loe kathawk tuu baktiah om o cadoeh, amro o ueloe, hmaikhue baktiah anghma o boih tih.
20For the wicked shall perish, and the enemies of the LORD shall be as the fat of lambs — they shall pass away in smoke, they shall pass away.
21Kahoih ai kami loe hmuenmae to coi, toe pathok let ai: toe katoeng kami mah loe palungnathaih to amtuengsak moe, paek let.
21The wicked borroweth, and payeth not; but the righteous dealeth graciously, and giveth.
22Angraeng tahamhoihaih tongh kaminawk loe, long hae toep o tih; anih mah tangoeng ih kaminawk loe pahnawt sut tih.
22For such as are blessed of Him shall inherit the land; and they that are cursed of Him shall be cut off.
23Kahoih kami ih khok tangkannawk loe Angraeng mah caksak; a caehhaih loklam nuiah palung tongh.
23It is of the LORD that a man's goings are established; and He delighted in his way.
24Anih loe amthaek cadoeh, amtim bung mak ai: tipongah tih nahaeloe Angraeng mah anih ih ban to patawnh pae.
24Though he fall, he shall not be utterly cast down; for the LORD upholdeth his hand.
25Katoeng kami to pahnawt sut, anih ih caanawk loe buh hnik o ti, tiah ka qoeng li nathuem hoi kamtong vaihi mitong khoek to ka panoek vai ai vop.
25I have been young, and now am old; yet have I not seen the righteous forsaken, nor his seed begging bread.
26Anih loe tahmenhaih tawnh moe, minawk han a paek pongah, a caanawk mah tahamhoihaih hnuk o.
26All the day long he dealeth graciously, and lendeth; and his seed is blessed.
27Kasae hmuen to caehtaak ah loe, kahoih hmuen to sah ah; to tiah nahaeloe prae thungah na om poe tih.
27Depart from evil, and do good; and dwell for evermore.
28Angraeng loe toenghaih to koeh pongah, angmah ih kaciim kaminawk to pahnawt sut ai; nihcae to dungzan khoek to khet poe: toe kasae kaminawk ih caanawk loe pahnawt suthaih to tongh o tih.
28For the LORD loveth justice, and forsaketh not His saints; they are preserved for ever; but the seed of the wicked shall be cut off.
29Katoeng kami loe long to toep ueloe, to ah dungzan khoek to om tih.
29The righteous shall inherit the land, and dwell therein for ever.
30Katoeng kami ih pakha mah loe palunghahaih lok to thuih; anih ih palai mah doeh toenghaih lok ni thuih.
30The mouth of the righteous uttereth wisdom, and his tongue speaketh justice.
31Anih loe Sithaw ih kaalok to palung thungah suek pongah, a caeh naah amthaek mak ai.
31The law of his God is in his heart; none of his steps slide.
32Kasae kami loe katoeng kami to hum hanah, angang.
32The wicked watcheth the righteous, and seeketh to slay him.
33Toe Angraeng mah anih to kasae kami ban ah caehtaak sut mak ai, lokcaek naah doeh anih to sungsak mak ai.
33The LORD will not leave him in his hand, nor suffer him to be condemned when he is judged.
34Angraeng to zing ah loe a loklam to pazui ah, prae toep hanah anih mah na pakoeh tih: kasae kaminawk amro o naah, to hmuen to na hnu tih.
34Wait for the LORD, and keep His way, and He will exalt thee to inherit the land; when the wicked are cut off, thou shalt see it.
35Kasae kami loe thacak moe, long kahoih pongah amprawk thing kahing baktiah qoeng tahang to ka hnuk.
35I have seen the wicked in great power, and spreading himself like a leafy tree in its native soil.
36Toe anih loe laemh ving boeh, khenah, om ai boeh: ue, anih to ka pakrong, toe anih loe hnu thai ai boeh.
36But one passed by, and, lo, he was not; yea, I sought him, but he could not be found.
37Kahoih kami hnuk ah bangah, katoeng kami to khen ah: to tiah sah kami loe hnukkhuem ah monghaih to hnu tih.
37Mark the man of integrity, and behold the upright; for there is a future for the man of peace.
38Zaehaih sah kaminawk loe amro o ueloe, sethaih sah kaminawk loe hnukkhuem ah amrohaih tong o tih.
38But transgressors shall be destroyed together; the future of the wicked shall be cut off.
39Katoeng kami pahlonghaih loe Angraeng ih ni: raihaih tongh naah Angraeng loe nihcae thacakhaih ah oh.
39But the salvation of the righteous is of the LORD; He is their stronghold in the time of trouble.
40Angraeng mah nihcae to abomh ueloe, pahlong tih: anih khaeah amha o pongah, anih mah kasae kaminawk ban thung hoiah nihcae to pahlong tih.
40And the LORD helpeth them, and delivereth them; He delivereth them from the wicked, and saveth them, because they have taken refuge in Him.
