1Aw Sithaw, naa hoi ka thaih o boeh; canghnii ah, nang mah nihcae khaeah na sak pae ih tok to, kam panawk mah ang thuih o boeh.
1(44-1) For the Leader; a Psalm of the sons of Korah. Maschil. (44-2) O God, we have heard with our ears, our fathers have told us; a work Thou didst in their days, in the days of old.
2Sithaw panoek ai kaminawk loe na ban hoiah na haek moe, kam panawk hanah to ahmuen to na paek; to kaminawk to na pacaekthlaek moe, kam panawk to na loisak.
2(44-3) Thou with Thy hand didst drive out the nations, and didst plant them in; Thou didst break the peoples, and didst spread them abroad.
3Nihcae mah to prae to sumsen hoiah pazawk o ai, angmacae bantha hoiah doeh pazawk o ai: toe nihcae to na palung pongah na bantang ban, na ban hoi na mikhmai aanghaih hoiah ni na pahlong.
3(44-4) For not by their own sword did they get the land in possession, neither did their own arm save them; but Thy right hand, and Thine arm, and the light of Thy countenance, because Thou wast favourable unto them.
4Aw Sithaw, nang loe ka Siangpahrang ah na oh; Jakob pahlonghaih lok to paek ah.
4(44-5) Thou art my King, O God; command the salvation of Jacob.
5Nang rang hoiah ka misanawk to hnuk kang nawn o sak moe, nangmah ih ahmin hoiah nihcae to ka tit o han.
5(44-6) Through Thee do we push down our adversaries; through Thy name do we tread them under that rise up against us.
6Kaimah ih kalii hae kang oep haih mak ai, ka sumsen mah doeh na pahlong mak ai.
6(44-7) For I trust not in my bow, neither can my sword save me.
7Toe kai hnuma kaminawk to na zatsak moe, kaicae to misanawk ban thung hoiah nang pahlong.
7(44-8) But Thou hast saved us from our adversaries, and hast put them to shame that hate us.
8Kaicae loe athun qui Sithaw ah ni kam oek o, na hmin to dungzan khoek to ka saphaw o. Selah .
8(44-9) In God have we gloried all the day, and we will give thanks unto Thy name for ever. Selah
9Toe vaihi loe nang pahnawt sut boeh moe, azat nang pawsak boeh; kaicae ih misatuh kaminawk hoi doeh nawnto na caeh ai boeh.
9(44-10) Yet Thou hast cast off, and brought us to confusion; and goest not forth with our hosts.
10Kaicae hae misa khae hoiah nam laemsak let: kaicae hnuma kaminawk loe angmacae koeh ah amro o.
10(44-11) Thou makest us to turn back from the adversary; and they that hate us spoil at their will.
11Moicaak han suek ih tuu baktiah nang prawt sut boeh moe, Sithaw panoek ai kaminawk salakah nang haehsak phang.
11(44-12) Thou hast given us like sheep to be eaten; and hast scattered us among the nations.
12Nangmah ih kaminawk to atho kazoi ah na zawh, toe nihcae zawhhaih atho mah nang ih hmuenmae to pung kue mak ai.
12(44-13) Thou sellest Thy people for small gain, and hast not set their prices high.
13Ka imtaeng ih kaminawk mah kasaethuih han kahoih ah nang sak, ka imtaeng kaminawk mah kasaethuihaih hoi pahnuithuihaih to nang phawsak.
13(44-14) Thou makest us a taunt to our neighbours, a scorn and a derision to them that are round about us.
14Sithaw panoek ai kaminawk salakah patahhaih lok ah na thuih moe, minawk salakah lu haek thuih hanah nang sak.
14(44-15) Thou makest us a byword among the nations, a shaking of the head among the peoples.
15Na hmaa ah ni thokkruek ahmin ka set moe, ka mikhmai hae azathaih mah khuk khoep boeh,
15(44-16) All the day is my confusion before me, and the shame of my face hath covered me,
16kasaethuih koeh kami hoi ahmin setsak koeh kami, lulak koeh kami hoi misanawk pongah ni, to tiah ka oh.
16(44-17) For the voice of him that taunteth and blasphemeth; by reason of the enemy and the revengeful.
17Hae hmuennawk boih kaicae nuiah phak; toe nang kang pahnet o ai, lok na maihaih doeh ka phrae o ai.
17(44-18) All this is come upon us; yet have we not forgotten Thee, neither have we been false to Thy covenant.
18Kaicae ih palungthin loe hnuk bangah amlaem ai moe, kaicae ih khoknawk doeh na loklam hoiah amkhraeng ai;
18(44-19) Our heart is not turned back, neither have our steps declined from Thy path;
19toe tasuinawk ohhaih salakah nang tit moe, duekhaih tahlip hoiah nang kraeng khoep.
19(44-20) Though Thou hast crushed us into a place of jackals, and covered us with the shadow of death.
20Kaicae mah Sithaw ih ahmin ka pahnet o moe, prae kalah sithaw khaeah ban ka payangh o cadoeh,
20(44-21) If we had forgotten the name of our God, or spread forth our hands to a strange god;
21Sithaw loe palung thungah tamquta hoi poek ih hmuen to panoek pongah anih mah hnu mak ai maw?
21(44-22) Would not God search this out? For He knoweth the secrets of the heart.
22Ue, nang pongah athun qui duekhaih ka tong o; hum han ih tuu baktiah ang poek o.
22(44-23) Nay, but for Thy sake are we killed all the day; we are accounted as sheep for the slaughter.
23Aw Angraeng, anglawt lai ah, tipongah na iih loe? Angthawk ah, kaicae hae dungzan khoek to na haek hmah.
23(44-24) Awake, why sleepest Thou, O Lord? Arouse Thyself, cast not off for ever.
24Tipongah mikhmai na hawk ving moe, kaicae raihaih hoi patangkhanghaih to nang pahnet pae ving loe?
24(44-25) Wherefore hidest Thou Thy face, and forgettest our affliction and our oppression?
25Kaicae hinghaih loe maiphu thungah krak tathuk boeh moe, kaicae ih zok doeh long ah angbet caeng boeh.
25(44-26) For our soul is bowed down to the dust; our belly cleaveth unto the earth.
26Kaicae abomh han angthawk ah loe, na palungnathaih hoiah kaicae hae na krang ah.
26(44-27) Arise for our help, and redeem us for Thy mercy's sake.
