King James Version with Apocrypha
1Manghai Lemuel kah olka olrhuh. He nen ni amah khaw a manu loh a toel.
1The words of king Lemuel, the prophecy that his mother taught him.
2Ka ca me tlam lae? Ka bungko lamkah ka capa me tlam lae? Ka olcaeng dong lamkah ka capa me tlam lae?
2What, my son? and what, the son of my womb? and what, the son of my vows?
3Na thadueng te huta pum dongah pae tarha boeh, na longpuei te manghai rhoek aka khoe ham ni te.
3Give not thy strength unto women, nor thy ways to that which destroyeth kings.
4Manghai Lemuel ham bueng moenih. Manghai rhoek loh misurtui a ok ham moenih. Boeica rhoek long khaw yu a tuep ham moenih.
4It is not for kings, O Lemuel, it is not for kings to drink wine; nor for princes strong drink:
5A ok tih a taem te a hnilh atah, phacip phabaem ca boeih kah dumlai te talh ve.
5Lest they drink, and forget the law, and pervert the judgment of any of the afflicted.
6Yu te aka milh taengah, misur te a hinglu aka khahing taengah pae uh.
6Give strong drink unto him that is ready to perish, and wine unto those that be of heavy hearts.
7O saeh lamtah a khodaeng te hnilh saeh. A thakthaenah khaw koep poek boel saeh.
7Let him drink, and forget his poverty, and remember his misery no more.
8Olmueh ham khaw, cadah cadum ca boeih kah dumlai ham khaw na ka te ong pah.
8Open thy mouth for the dumb in the cause of all such as are appointed to destruction.
9Na ka te ong lamtah duengnah neh laitloek pah. Mangdaeng neh khodaeng te khaw tang sak lah.
9Open thy mouth, judge righteously, and plead the cause of the poor and needy.
