Asang Khongca Bible (Eastern Khumi Chin, 2019)
World English Bible
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.
1We have heard with our ears, God; our fathers have told us what work you did 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.
2You drove out the nations with your hand, but you planted them. You afflicted the peoples, but you 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.
3For they didn’t get the land in possession by their own sword, neither did their own arm save them; but your right hand, your arm, and the light of your face, because you were favorable to them.
4Aw Sithaw, nang loe ka Siangpahrang ah na oh; Jakob pahlonghaih lok to paek ah.
4God, you are my King. Command victories for Jacob!
5Nang rang hoiah ka misanawk to hnuk kang nawn o sak moe, nangmah ih ahmin hoiah nihcae to ka tit o han.
5Through you, we will push down our adversaries. Through your name, we will tread down those who rise up against us.
6Kaimah ih kalii hae kang oep haih mak ai, ka sumsen mah doeh na pahlong mak ai.
6For I will not trust in my bow, neither will my sword save me.
7Toe kai hnuma kaminawk to na zatsak moe, kaicae to misanawk ban thung hoiah nang pahlong.
7But you have saved us from our adversaries, and have shamed those who hate us.
8Kaicae loe athun qui Sithaw ah ni kam oek o, na hmin to dungzan khoek to ka saphaw o. Selah .
8In God we have made our boast all day long. We will give thanks to your name forever. Selah.
9Toe vaihi loe nang pahnawt sut boeh moe, azat nang pawsak boeh; kaicae ih misatuh kaminawk hoi doeh nawnto na caeh ai boeh.
9But now you rejected us, and brought us to dishonor, and don’t go out with our armies.
10Kaicae hae misa khae hoiah nam laemsak let: kaicae hnuma kaminawk loe angmacae koeh ah amro o.
10You make us turn back from the adversary. Those who hate us take plunder for themselves.
11Moicaak han suek ih tuu baktiah nang prawt sut boeh moe, Sithaw panoek ai kaminawk salakah nang haehsak phang.
11You have made us like sheep for food, and have 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.
12You sell your people for nothing, and have gained nothing from their sale.
13Ka imtaeng ih kaminawk mah kasaethuih han kahoih ah nang sak, ka imtaeng kaminawk mah kasaethuihaih hoi pahnuithuihaih to nang phawsak.
13You make us a reproach to our neighbors, a scoffing and a derision to those who are around us.
14Sithaw panoek ai kaminawk salakah patahhaih lok ah na thuih moe, minawk salakah lu haek thuih hanah nang sak.
14You make 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,
15All day long my dishonor is before me, and shame covers my face,
16kasaethuih koeh kami hoi ahmin setsak koeh kami, lulak koeh kami hoi misanawk pongah ni, to tiah ka oh.
16at the taunt of one who reproaches and verbally abuses, because of the enemy and the avenger.
17Hae hmuennawk boih kaicae nuiah phak; toe nang kang pahnet o ai, lok na maihaih doeh ka phrae o ai.
17All this has come on us, yet we haven’t forgotten you. We haven’t been false to your covenant.
18Kaicae ih palungthin loe hnuk bangah amlaem ai moe, kaicae ih khoknawk doeh na loklam hoiah amkhraeng ai;
18Our heart has not turned back, neither have our steps strayed from your path,
19toe tasuinawk ohhaih salakah nang tit moe, duekhaih tahlip hoiah nang kraeng khoep.
19though you have crushed us in the haunt 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,
20If we have forgotten the name of our God, or spread out our hands to a strange god,
21Sithaw loe palung thungah tamquta hoi poek ih hmuen to panoek pongah anih mah hnu mak ai maw?
21won’t God search this out? For he knows the secrets of the heart.
22Ue, nang pongah athun qui duekhaih ka tong o; hum han ih tuu baktiah ang poek o.
22Yes, for your sake we are killed all day long. We are regarded as sheep for the slaughter.
23Aw Angraeng, anglawt lai ah, tipongah na iih loe? Angthawk ah, kaicae hae dungzan khoek to na haek hmah.
23Wake up! Why do you sleep, Lord? Arise! Don’t reject us forever.
24Tipongah mikhmai na hawk ving moe, kaicae raihaih hoi patangkhanghaih to nang pahnet pae ving loe?
24Why do you hide your face, and forget our affliction and our oppression?
25Kaicae hinghaih loe maiphu thungah krak tathuk boeh moe, kaicae ih zok doeh long ah angbet caeng boeh.
25For our soul is bowed down to the dust. Our body clings to the earth.
26Kaicae abomh han angthawk ah loe, na palungnathaih hoiah kaicae hae na krang ah.
26Rise up to help us. Redeem us for your loving kindness’ sake.
