Saam 73
Asang Khongca Bible (Eastern Khumi Chin, 2019)
King James Version with Apocrypha
1Sithaw loe poekciim kami hoi Israelnawk nuiah hoih tangtang.
1Truly God is good to Israel, even to such as are of a clean heart.
2Toe ka khok loe amthaek tom boeh; kang doethaih ahmuen angthuih tom boeh.
2But as for me, my feet were almost gone; my steps had well nigh slipped.
3Poeksae kaminawk mah hnuk o ih tahamhoihaih to ka hnuk naah, amthu kaminawk to ka khit moeng boeh.
3For I was envious at the foolish, when I saw the prosperity of the wicked.
4Nihcae loe duek naah patangkhang o ai; ngantui o moe, thacak o.
4For there are no bands in their death: but their strength is firm.
5Nihcae loe minawk kalah baktiah raihaih panoek o ai; minawk baktiah patang o ai.
5They are not in trouble as other men; neither are they plagued like other men.
6To pongah amoekhaih to bungmu baktiah a oih o; pacaekthlaekhaih to khukbuen baktiah angkhuk o.
6Therefore pride compasseth them about as a chain; violence covereth them as a garment.
7Hmuenmae hoi angraeng o pongah, nihcae ih mik loe tasa bangah tacawt dok; nihcae loe palung thung hoi poek ih hmuen pongah kamthlai ah koeh o.
7Their eyes stand out with fatness: they have more than heart could wish.
8Nihcae mah kahoih ai pacaekthlaekhaih to pahnuih o thuih; amoekhaih lok apaeh o.
8They are corrupt, and speak wickedly concerning oppression: they speak loftily.
9Nihcae loe pakha hoiah vannawk to kasae thuih o moe, palai to long pum ah amkaeh o sak.
9They set their mouth against the heavens, and their tongue walketh through the earth.
10To pongah Sithaw mah angmah ih kaminawk to amlaemsak let moe, a paek ih tui to kamhah ah naek o.
10Therefore his people return hither: and waters of a full cup are wrung out to them.
11Nihcae mah, Kawbangmaw Sithaw mah panoek tih? Kasang koek ah kaom loe panoekhaih tawnh maw? tiah thuih o.
11And they say, How doth God know? and is there knowledge in the most High?
12Khenah, Sithaw panoek ai kaminawk loe hae tiah oh o; nihcae loe long nuiah khosak hoih o moe, angraeng o aep aep.
12Behold, these are the ungodly, who prosper in the world; they increase in riches.
13Tangtang ni, ka suek ih kaciim poekhaih loe azom pui ni; zaehaih om ai ah kam saeh ih ban doeh azom pui ah ni oh.
13Verily I have cleansed my heart in vain, and washed my hands in innocency.
14Ni thokkruek patang ka khang, akhawnbang kruek thuitaekhaih to ka tongh.
14For all the day long have I been plagued, and chastened every morning.
15To tiah kasae thuih han ka poek nahaeloe, khenah, na caanawk nuiah kasae sah kami ah ni ka om tih.
15If I say, I will speak thus; behold, I should offend against the generation of thy children.
16Hae hmuen hae kawbangmaw ka panoek thaih han, tiah ka poek naah, kai hanah loe panoek han rai parai hmuen ah oh;
16When I thought to know this, it was too painful for me;
17hnukkhuem ah loe Sithaw ih hmuenciim thungah ka phak, to naah ni to hmuennawk boenghaih to ka panoek thai vop.
17Until I went into the sanctuary of God; then understood I their end.
18Tangtang thuih nahaeloe nang mah ni nihcae to kamnae ahmuen ah na suek moe, nihcae to amrohaih thungah na vah.
18Surely thou didst set them in slippery places: thou castedst them down into destruction.
19Nihcae loe kawbangmaw, nawnetta thungah amro o halat! Hnukkhuem ah loe zitthok hmuen mah nihcae to paduek boih boeh.
19How are they brought into desolation, as in a moment! they are utterly consumed with terrors.
20Kami mah angthawk naah amang to poek baktih toengah, Aw Angraeng, nang thawk tahang naah, nihcae poekhaih to tiah doeh sah pae hmah.
20As a dream when one awaketh; so , O Lord, when thou awakest, thou shalt despise their image.
21To tiah palung ka nat moe, ka poekhaih anghmang sut.
21Thus my heart was grieved, and I was pricked in my reins.
22Kai loe amthu kami, tidoeh panoek ai kami ah ka oh; na hmaa ah kasan moi baktiah ni ka oh sut boeh.
22So foolish was I, and ignorant: I was as a beast before thee.
23Toe kai loe nang khaeah ka oh poe; ka bantang ban hae nang patawnh pae.
23Nevertheless I am continually with thee: thou hast holden me by my right hand.
24Nangmah loe na thoemhaih hoiah loklam nang patuek ueloe, lensawkhaih thungah nang caeh haih tih.
24Thou shalt guide me with thy counsel, and afterward receive me to glory.
25Nang ai ah loe van ah ka tawnh ih mi maw oh vop? Nang pacoengah loe long nuiah ka koeh ih mi doeh om ai.
25Whom have I in heaven but thee ? and there is none upon earth that I desire beside thee.
26Ka ngan hoi ka palung loe amro boeh; toe Sithaw loe ka palungthin thacakhaih ah oh moe, dungzan ah kai ih taham ah ni oh.
26My flesh and my heart faileth: but God is the strength of my heart, and my portion for ever.
27Khenah, nang hoi angthla kaminawk loe amro o boih tih; nang khae hoi amkhraeng moe, oep om ai ah khosah kaminawk loe nam rosak boih tih.
27For, lo, they that are far from thee shall perish: thou hast destroyed all them that go a whoring from thee.
28Toe kai loe Sithaw khaeah anghnaih han hoih; na toksakhaihnawk boih ka thuih hanah, Angraeng Sithaw khaeah ka buep.
28But it is good for me to draw near to God: I have put my trust in the Lord GOD , that I may declare all thy works.
