2 Samuel 22
JPS Tanakh (Jewish Publication Society, 1917)
Baibal Olcim (Matupi Chin)
1And David spoke unto the LORD the words of this song in the day that the LORD delivered him out of the hand of all his enemies, and out of the hand of Saul;
1A thunkha cungkuem kut lamkah oe, Saul kut lamkah BOEIPA loh anih a huul hnin vaengah, David loh BOEIPA taengah hekah laa lung he a thui.
2and he said: The LORD is my rock, and my fortress, and my deliverer;
2Te vaengah, “BOEIPA tah ka thaelpang neh ka rhalvong neh kai ham tah kai aka hlawt la om.
3The God who is my rock, in Him I take refuge; my shield, and my horn of salvation, my high tower, and my refuge; my saviour, Thou savest me from violence.
3Ka lungpang Pathen amah dongah ni ka ying, ka photling neh khangnah ki, ka imsang neh ka thuhaelnah, khangkung loh kai he kuthlahnah lamloh nan khang.
4Praised, I cry, is the LORD, and I am saved from mine enemies.
4Thangthen ham tueng BOEIPA te ka khue dongah ka thunkha rhoek taeng lamloh ng'khang.
5For the waves of Death compassed me. The floods of Belial assailed me.
5Dueknah tuiphu loh kai n'li tih, aka muen soklong loh n'sak he.
6The cords of Sheol surrounded me; the snares of Death confronted me.
6Saelkhui kah rhui loh kai m'ven tih, dueknah hlaeh loh kai m'mah.
7In my distress I called upon the LORD, yea, I called unto my God; and out of His temple He heard my voice, and my cry did enter into His ears.
7Ka kho a bing vaengah BOEIPA te ka khue tih ka Pathen taengah ka pang. Te vaengah ka pang ol te a bawkim lamloh a hna neh a yaak.
8Then the earth did shake and quake, the foundations of heaven did tremble; they were shaken, because He was wroth.
8Te vaengah diklai te tuen la tuen tih hinghuen. Anih taengah a sai dongah vaan kah a yung te tlai tih tuen.
9Smoke arose up in His nostrils, and fire out of His mouth did devour; coals flamed forth from Him.
9A hnarhong lamkah hmaikhu thoeng tih, a ka lamkah hmai loh a laeh vaengah hmai-alh khaw tak.
10He bowed the heavens also, and came down; and thick darkness was under His feet.
10Te phoeiah vaan a koiloep tih, a suntlak vaengah yinnah tah a kho hmuila pawk.
11And He rode upon a cherub, and did fly; yea, He was seen upon the wings of the wind.
11Cherub dongah ngol bal tih a ding vaengah khohli phae sola phoe.
12And He made darkness pavilions round about Him, gathering of waters, thick clouds of the skies.
12A kaepvai khohmuep neh khomong khomai dongkah tui tun te dungtlungim la a khueh.
13At the brightness before Him coals of fire flamed forth.
13Amah hmaikah a aa loh a hmai-alh te a dom.
14The LORD thundered from heaven, and the Most High gave forth His voice.
14BOEIPA te vaan lamloh a kawk vaengah Khohni loh a ol a huel.
15And He sent out arrows, and scattered them; lightning, and discomfited them.
15Thaltang a kah tih amih te a taekyak phoeiah, amih te rhaek neh a khawkkhek la a khawkkhek.
16And the channels of the sea appeared, the foundations of the world were laid bare by the rebuke of the LORD, at the blast of the breath of His nostrils.
16BOEIPA kah tluungnah neh a hiil dongkah a thintoek yilh loh lunglai kah yung hoep tih sokca tuipuei khaw tueng.
17He sent from on high, He took me; He drew me out of many waters;
17A sang lamloh yueng uh tih tui dueng khui lamkah kai he n'tuuk tih n'doek.
18He delivered me from mine enemy most strong, from them that hated me, for they were too mighty for me.
18Kai ham tah tlung uh dae ka thunkha hlangtlung neh ka lunguet taeng lamkah kai n'huul.
19They confronted me in the day of my calamity; but the LORD was a stay unto me.
19Ka rhainah hnin ah kai m'mah uh cakhaw BOEIPA tah kai ham tukcawt longkhawn la om.
20He brought me forth also into a large place; He delivered me, because He delighted in me.
20Kai khuiah a naep dongah kai he hoengpoeknah la kai n'khuen tih n'pumcum sak.
21The LORD rewarded me according to my righteousness; according to the cleanness of my hands hath He recompensed me.
21Ka duengnah bangla BOEIPA loh kai n'thung tih, ka kut kah a cimcaihnah vanbangla kamah taengla ham mael coeng.
22For I have kept the ways of the LORD, and have not wickedly departed from my God.
22BOEIPA kah longpuei te ka ngaithuen tih ka Pathen taeng lamloh ka poehlip van pawh.
23For all His ordinances were before me; and as for His statutes, I did not depart from them.
23Amah kah laitloeknah boeih te tah a laitloeknah bangla ka hmaiah ka khueh tih a khosing lamloh ka phael pawh.
24And I was single-hearted toward Him, and I kept myself from mine iniquity.
24A hmaiah cuemthuek la ka om tih ka thaesainah lamkah khaw ka cue uh.
25Therefore hath the LORD recompensed me according to my righteousness, according to my cleanness in His eyes.
25A mikhmuh kah ka duengnah, ka cimcaihnah vanbangla BOEIPA loh ka taengah han thuung coeng.
26With the merciful Thou dost show Thyself merciful, with the upright man Thou dost show Thyself upright,
26Hingcim taengah uepom la na om tih, cuemthuek hlangrhalh taengah na cungkuem coeng.
27With the pure Thou dost show myself pure; and with the crooked Thou dost show Thyself subtle.
27Aka meet uh taengah na meet uh tih, voeldak te tah na hnueih.
28And the afflicted people Thou dost save; but Thine eyes are upon the haughty, that Thou mayest humble them.
28Pilnam mangdaeng te na khang tih, na mikhmuh kah aka pomsang rhoek te na kunyun sak.
29For Thou art my lamp, O LORD; and the LORD doth lighten my darkness.
29BOEIPA namah tah ka hmaithoi la na om tih, ka hmaisuep khaw BOEIPA loh a tue coeng.
30For by Thee I run upon a troop; by my God do I scale a wall.
30Namah nen tah caem khaw ka poeng tih, ka Pathen nen tah pangbueng khaw ka poe thai.
31As for God, His way is perfect; the word of the LORD is tried; He is a shield unto all them that take refuge in Him.
31Pathen tah a longpuei khangmai tih, BOEIPA kah olthui a cimcaih dongah anih khuiah aka ying boeih ham tah photling la a om pah.
32For who is God, save the LORD? and who is a Rock, save our God?
32BOEIPA phoeikah Pathen te unim? Mamih kah Pathen phoeiah tah unim lungpang bal?
33The God who is my strong fortress, and who letteth my way go forth straight;
33Ka lunghim Pathen tah ka thadueng la om tih, amah kah longpuei te ka longpuei ham a khangmai la khueh.
34Who maketh my feet like hinds', and setteth me upon my high places;
34Ka kho sayuk kho bangla a khueh tih, ka hmuensang ah kai m'pai sak.
35Who traineth my hands for war, so that mine arms do bend a bow of brass.
35Ka kut he caemtloek ham a cang tih ka ban loh rhohum lii khaw a phuk thai.
36Thou hast also given me Thy shield of salvation; and Thy condescension hath made me great.
36Namah kah daemnah photling te ka taengah nam paek tih, namah kah kodonah neh kai nan ping sak.
37Thou hast enlarged my steps under me, and my feet have not slipped.
37Ka kungdak kah ka kholaeh khaw na aeh dongah ka kho paloe pawh.
38I have pursued mine enemies, and destroyed them; neither did I turn back till they were consumed.
38Ka thunkha rhoek te ka hloem tih, ka mitmoeng sak vaengah amih ka khah hlanah ka balkhong moenih.
39And I have consumed them, and smitten them through, that they cannot arise; yea, they are fallen under my feet.
39Amih te ka khah tih ka phop daengah ni thoo uh thai pawt tih ka kho tangah a bakop uh.
40For Thou hast girded me with strength unto the battle; Thou hast subdued under me those that rose up against me.
40Caemtloek ham khaw kai he thadueng nan vah sak tih, kai aka tlai thil rhoek te kamah hmuila na koisu.
41Thou hast also made mine enemies turn their backs unto me; yea, them that hate me, that I might cut them off.
41Te dongah ka thunkha rhoek te kai taengah a rhawn na duen sak tih, ka lunguet khaw ka biit.
42They looked, but there was none to save; even unto the LORD, but He answered them not.
42BOEIPA taengah khaw pang uh coeng dae khang voel pawt tih, amih te doo voel pawh.
43Then did I beat them small as the dust of the earth, I did stamp them as the mire of the streets, and did tread them down.
43Te dongah amih te diklai laipi bangla ka neet tih, long kah tangnong bangla ka tip sak phoeiah ka nulh.
44Thou also hast delivered me from the contentions of my people; Thou hast kept me to be the head of the nations; a people whom I have not known serve me.
44Ka pilnam kah tuituknah khui lamkah khaw kai nan hlawt. Namtom kah a lu la kai nan hloe dongah ming pawt pilnam loh kai taengah thotat.
45The sons of the stranger dwindle away before me; as soon as they hear of me, they obey me.
45Kholong ca rhoek loh kai taengah mai a tum uh tih, a hna neh a yaak hamla ka ol a hnatun uh.
46The sons of the stranger fade away, and come halting out of their close places.
46Kholong ca rhoek loh tahah uh tih, a vongtung khui lamloh yingyet uh.
47The LORD liveth, and blessed be my Rock; and exalted be the God, my Rock of salvation;
47BOEIPA kah hingnah dongah ka lungpang tah a yoethen pai tih, kai ham daemnah lungpang Pathen tah pomsang pai saeh.
48Even the God that executeth vengeance for me, and bringeth down peoples under me,
48Pathen loh kai hamla tawnlohnah a paek tih, pilnam te kai kungdak la a suntlak sak.
49And that bringeth me forth from mine enemies; yea, Thou liftest me up above them that rise up against me; Thou deliverest me from the violent man.
49Ka thunkha rhoek taeng lamkah kai nan poh, kai aka tlai thil rhoek kah a sola kai nan pomsang bal. Hlang kah kuthlahnah lamkah kai nan huul.
50Therefore I will give thanks unto Thee, O LORD, among the nations, and will sing praises unto Thy name.
50Te dongah BOEIPA nang te namtom taengah kan uem vetih na ming te ka tingtoeng ni.
51A tower of salvation is He to His king; and showeth mercy to His anointed, to David and to his seed, for evermore.
51A manghai kah khangnah imsang tah len pai. Te dongah ni sitlohnah he a koelh taengah khaw, David neh a tiingan taengah khaw kumhal duela a saii pah,” a ti.
