Psalms 10
JPS Tanakh (Jewish Publication Society, 1917)
Asang Khongca Bible (Eastern Khumi Chin, 2019)
1Why standest Thou afar off, O LORD? Why hidest Thou Thyself in times of trouble?
1Aw Angraeng, tipongah kangthla ah nang doet ving loe? Tikhoe raihaih ka tongh naah nang hawk ving loe?
2Through the pride of the wicked the poor is hotly pursued, they are taken in the devices that they have imagined.
2Kasae kami loe amoek moe, amtang kaminawk to pacaekthlaek; angmacae poeksethaih mah angmacae to naeh nasoe.
3For the wicked boasteth of his heart's desire, and the covetous vaunteth himself, though he contemn the LORD.
3Kasae kami loe a palung thungah koeh ih baktiah amoek; anih loe kamtlai koeh hmoek kami to thapaek moe, Angraeng to kasae thuih.
4The wicked, in the pride of his countenance, saith: 'He will not require'; all his thoughts are: 'There is no God.'
4Kasae kami loe, amoek loiah Sithaw to pakrong ai: a poekhaihnawk boih ah Sithaw han ahmuen om ai.
5His ways prosper at all times; Thy judgments are far above out of his sight; as for all his adversaries, he puffeth at them.
5Anih ih loklamnawk loe palungsethaih ah oh; nihcae lokcaekhaih loe Sithaw mah paek ih lok hoiah angthla moe, a misanawk to tiah doeh sah ai.
6He saith in his heart: 'I shall not be moved, I who to all generations shall not be in adversity.'
6Anih mah, Kai loe raihaih ka tong mak ai; natuek naah doeh kam tang mak ai, tiah a poek.
7His mouth is full of cursing and deceit and oppression; under his tongue is mischief and iniquity.
7Anih ih pakha loe kasaethuihaih, amsawnlok thuihaih, alinghaih hoiah koi, anih palai ah loe raihaih hoi sethaih khue ni oh.
8He sitteth in the lurking-places of the villages; in secret places doth he slay the innocent; his eyes are on the watch for the helpless.
8Anih loe avang taengah anghawk moe, sakpazaehaih tawn ai kami to hum: amtang kami naeh hanah tamquta hoiah a khet.
9He lieth in wait in a secret place as a lion in his lair, he lieth in wait to catch the poor; he doth catch the poor, when he draweth him up in his net.
9Kaipui mah akhaw thung hoi moi angang baktih toengah, anih loe anghawkhaih hoiah a angang: amtang kami to angang moe, anih to angmah taengah phak naah palok hoiah a naeh.
10He croucheth, he boweth down, and the helpless fall into his mighty claws.
10Amtang kaminawk a thacakhaih thungah akun o thai hanah, angmah hoi angmah to mi tlim ah kaom thacak ai kami baktiah oh.
11He hath said in his heart: 'God hath forgotten; He hideth His face; He will never see.'
11Anih mah palung thung hoiah, Sithaw mah pahnet boeh: a mikhmai to hawk ving boeh, natuek naah doeh hnu mak ai boeh, tiah poek.
12Arise, O LORD; O God, lift up Thy hand; forget not the humble.
12Aw Angraeng, angthawk ah! aw Sithaw, na ban to payangh tahang ah: poek pahnaem kaminawk to pahnet hmah.
13Wherefore doth the wicked contemn God, and say in his heart: 'Thou wilt not require'?
13Tipongah kasae kami mah Angraeng to kasae thuih loe? Anih loe Angraeng mah kawbangah doeh na naa tang mak ai, tiah a poek.
14Thou hast seen; for Thou beholdest trouble and vexation, to requite them with Thy hand; unto Thee the helpless committeth himself; Thou hast been the helper of the fatherless.
14Toe nang mah loe na hnuk pae; raihaih hoi pacip paaahaih to na ban hoi lak hanah na khet: amtang kami loe angmah hoi angmah to nang khaeah ang paek; tipongah tih nahaeloe nang loe ampa tawn ai kami bomkung ah na oh.
15Break Thou the arm of the wicked; and as for the evil man, search out his wickedness, till none be found.
15Sethaih sah kami hoi zaehaih sah kami ih ban to khaek pae ah: a sak ih sethaih hnu ai karoek to pakrong ah.
16The LORD is King for ever and ever; the nations are perished out of His land.
16Angraeng loe dungzan hoi dungzan khoek to Siangpahrang ah oh poe: Sithaw panoek ai kaminawk loe a prae thung hoiah anghmaa o tih.
17LORD, Thou hast heard the desire of the humble: Thou wilt direct their heart, Thou wilt cause Thine ear to attend;
17Aw Angraeng, nang loe mi tlim ah khosah kaminawk koehhaih to na panoek pae: nihcae ih palungthin to na caksak:
18To right the fatherless and the oppressed, that man who is of the earth may be terrible no more.
18Long kami mah pacaekthlaek let han ai ah, ampa tawn ai kami hoi pacaekthlaekhaih tongh kaminawk, toenghaih hoi lokcaek hanah nihcae qahhaih lok to na tahngaih pae.
