Saam 39
Asang Khongca Bible (Eastern Khumi Chin, 2019)
King James Version with Apocrypha
1Palai hoi zaehaih ka sak han ai ah, ka caehhaih loklam ah ka coe han: kahoih ai kaminawk ka hmaa ah oh o nathung, pakha hae ka tamuep han, tiah ka thuih.
1I said, I will take heed to my ways, that I sin not with my tongue: I will keep my mouth with a bridle, while the wicked is before me.
2Lokpae ai ah ka oh duem, to tiah ka oh pongah hoikhanghaih om ai; palungsethaih to pung aep.
2I was dumb with silence, I held my peace, even from good; and my sorrow was stirred.
3Ka palung loe bet, ka poek naah nung aep ah bet: to naah,
3My heart was hot within me, while I was musing the fire burned: then spake I with my tongue,
4Aw Angraeng, kai loe amro thaikoi hmuen ah ni ka oh, nasetto maw ka hing han vop, tiah na panoeksak ah, tiah ka thuih.
4LORD , make me to know mine end, and the measure of my days, what it is; that I may know how frail I am .
5Khenah, ka hinghaih aninawk loe ban tamsum setto khue ni na sak; ka hinghaih loe na hmaa ah tiah doeh om ai: tangtang ni, kami loe kasang koek ahmuen ah pha cadoeh azom pui ni. Selah .
5Behold, thou hast made my days as an handbreadth; and mine age is as nothing before thee: verily every man at his best state is altogether vanity. Selah.
6Tangtang ni, kami loe tidoeh avang ai tahlip thungah ni amkaeh: tangtang ni, kaminawk loe azom pui ah ni patang o: anih loe hmuenmae to patung, toe mi mah maw toep tih, tiah panoek ai.
6Surely every man walketh in a vain shew: surely they are disquieted in vain: he heapeth up riches , and knoweth not who shall gather them.
7Vaihi timaw ka zing han vop? Angraeng, ka oephaih loe nang ni.
7And now, Lord, what wait I for? my hope is in thee.
8Ka sakpazae ih hmuennawk thung hoiah na pahlong ah: amthu kaminawk mah kasaethuih hanah na sah hmah.
8Deliver me from all my transgressions: make me not the reproach of the foolish.
9Hae tiah nang ohsak boeh pongah, lok ka pae ai, pakha doeh ka aang ai.
9I was dumb, I opened not my mouth; because thou didst it .
10Dan nang paekhaih to kai khae hoiah na takhoe pae ah: ban hoi nang boh pongah ka thazok sut boeh.
10Remove thy stroke away from me: I am consumed by the blow of thine hand.
11Zaehaih pongah kami to na thuitaek, dan na paek naah karaa mah caak ih baktih toengah, nihcae hoihaih to nam rosak: kaminawk loe azom pui ah ni oh o boih. Selah .
11When thou with rebukes dost correct man for iniquity, thou makest his beauty to consume away like a moth: surely every man is vanity. Selah.
12Aw Angraeng, lawk ka thuihaih hae na thai paeh loe, ka hanghaih lok hae na tahngai paeh; ka mikkhraetui krakhaih hae na khen pae sut hmah: kai loe kam panawk baktiah kholong ka caeh moe, angvin baktiah ni ka oh.
12Hear my prayer, O LORD , and give ear unto my cry; hold not thy peace at my tears: for I am a stranger with thee, and a sojourner, as all my fathers were .
13Hae ahmuen hoi ka duek moe, ka caeh ai naah, tha ka oh let hanah, na tahmen rae ah.
13O spare me, that I may recover strength, before I go hence, and be no more.
