Psalms 35
JPS Tanakh (Jewish Publication Society, 1917)
Asang Khongca Bible (Eastern Khumi Chin, 2019)
1A Psalm of David. Strive, O LORD, with them that strive with me; fight against them that fight against me.
1Aw Angraeng, ka lokaek kaminawk to nang mah aek ah loe; kai tuh kaminawk to nang mah tuh ah.
2Take hold of shield and buckler, and rise up to my help.
2Angvaenghaih hoi pakaahaih to la ah loe, kai abomh hanah angthawk ah.
3Draw out also the spear, and the battle-axe, against them that pursue me; say unto my soul: 'I am Thy salvation.'
3Tayae to aphong ah loe, kai pacaekthlaek han patom kaminawk to pakaa khoep ah: ka hinghaih pakhra khaeah, Kai loe nang pahlongkung ni, tiah thui paeh.
4Let them be ashamed and brought to confusion that seek after my soul; let them be turned back and be abashed that devise my hurt.
4Ka hinghaih boeng hanah pakrong kaminawk to palungboeng o nasoe loe, azatpaw o nasoe: kai amro han khokhan kaminawk to azatpawhaih hoiah hnukbangah amlaem o let nasoe.
5Let them be as chaff before the wind, the angel of the LORD thrusting them.
5Nihcae loe takhi mah hmuh ih tavai baktiah om o nasoe loe, Angraeng ih van kami mah nihcae to haek nasoe.
6Let their way be dark and slippery, the angel of the LORD pursuing them.
6Nihcae caehhaih loklam to khoving nasoe loe, loklam amnaesak nasoe: Angraeng ih van kami mah nihcae to pacaekthlaek nasoe.
7For without cause have they hid for me the pit, even their net, without cause have they digged for my soul.
7Nihcae loe takung om ai ah tamquta hoi kai hanah palok zang o, takung om ai ah ka hinghaih paro hanah tangqom to takaeh o.
8Let destruction come upon him unawares; and let his net that he hath hid catch himself; with destruction let him fall therein.
8To baktih kami nuiah poek ai pui hoiah raihaih to pha pae nasoe; angmah payang ih palok pongah angmah to aman nasoe: to amrohaih tangqom thungah angmah to krah nasoe.
9And my soul shall be joyful in the LORD; it shall rejoice in His salvation.
9To naah ka hinghaih mah Angraeng ah anghoe ueloe, anih pahlonghaih pongah anghoe tih.
10All my bones shall say: 'LORD, who is like unto Thee, who deliverest the poor from him that is too strong for him, yea, the poor and the needy from him that spoileth him?'
10To naah ka huhnawk boih mah, thacak kami ban thung hoiah amtang kami pahlongkung, ue, paro thaih kami ban thung hoiah amtang kaminawk pahlongkung, Angraeng, mi maw nang baktih kaom? tiah thui o tih.
11Unrighteous witnesses rise up; they ask me of things that I know not.
11Amsawn hnukung ah angdoe kaminawk loe angthawk o moe, ka panoek ai ih hmuennawk to ka nuiah amtik o.
12They repay me evil for good; bereavement is come to my soul.
12Ka hinghaih paro hanah kahoih hmuen to kasae hoiah ang pathok o.
13But as for me, when they were sick, my clothing was sackcloth, I afflicted my soul with fasting; and my prayer, may it return into mine own bosom.
13Toe kai loe nihcae ngannat o naah, buri kazii to kang zaeng moe, buhzah lawkthuihaih hoiah poek ka pahnaem pacoengah, palungthin tang hoiah lawk ka thuih.
14I went about as though it had been my friend or my brother; I bowed down mournful, as one that mourneth for his mother.
14Nihcae to kam pui hoi kaimah ih nawkamya baktiah ka poek: kami mah amno duek naah palungset baktih toengah, palungset hoiah ka ngam sut.
15But when I halt they rejoice, and gather themselves together; the abjects gather themselves together against me, and those whom I know not; they tear me, and cease not;
15Toe kai amtim naah loe nihcae anghoe o moe, nawnto amkhueng o; ue, kai patoem kaminawk loe nawnto amkhueng o, nihcae to ka panoek ai; nihcae loe anghak ai ah kai ang pasik o:
16With the profanest mockeries of backbiting they gnash at me with their teeth.
16kasae kaminawk mah poihkung ah minawk pahnuih o thuih baktih toengah, kai han haa ang kaek o thuih.
17Lord, how long wilt Thou look on? Rescue my soul from their destructions, mine only one from the lions.
17Aw Angraeng, nasetto maw nang khet sut han vop? Amrosak thaih nihcae ban thung hoiah ka hinghaih na pahlong paeh loe, hae kaipui ban thung hoiah ka palung koek ih ka hinghaih hae pahlong ah.
18I will give Thee thanks in the great congregation; I will praise Thee among a numerous people.
18Rangpui amkhuenghaih ahmuen ah nang khaeah anghoehaih lok to ka thuih, kaminawk salakah nang kang pakoeh han.
19Let not them that are wrongfully mine enemies rejoice over me; neither let them wink with the eye that hate me without a cause.
19Amsoem ai ah ka misanawk mah ka nuiah anghoe o thuih hmah nasoe; takung om ai ah kai hnuma kaminawk mah mik na pakhrip o thuih hmah nasoe.
20For they speak not peace; but they devise deceitful matters against them that are quiet in the land.
20Nihcae loe angdaehhaih to lok thui o ai; nihcae loe prae thungah amding rue ah khosah kaminawk athlaeng thai hanah pacaeng o.
21Yea, they open their mouth wide against me; they say: 'Aha, aha, our eye hath seen it.'
21Ue, nihcae loe pakha angh o moe, Aha, aha, aimacae ih mik hoi roe a hnuk o boeh, tiah a thuih o.
22Thou hast seen, O LORD; keep not silence; O Lord, be not far from me.
22Aw Angraeng, hae baktih hmuennawk hae na hnuk boeh pongah, om taak duem hmah: Aw Angraeng, kangthla ah na om taak hmah.
23Rouse Thee, and awake to my judgment, even unto my cause, my God and my Lord.
23Ka Sithaw hoi Angraeng, kai kawng pongah lokcaek hanah, anglawt loe, angthawk ah!
24Judge me, O LORD my God, according to Thy righteousness; and let them not rejoice over me.
24Aw Angraeng ka Sithaw, na toenghaih hoiah lok na takroek pae ah; ka nuiah nihcae mah anghoehaih tawn o hmah nasoe.
25Let them not say in their heart: 'Aha, we have our desire'; let them not say: 'We have swallowed him up.'
25Nihcae mah palung thung hoiah Aah, aicae koehhaih loe acung boeh, tiah thui o hmah nasoe: anih loe a paaeh o boeh, tiah thui o hmah nasoe.
26Let them be ashamed and abashed together that rejoice at my hurt; let them be clothed with shame and confusion that magnify themselves against me.
26Karai ka tonghaih nuiah anghoe kaminawk loe azatpaw o nasoe loe, dawnraihaih hoiah om o nasoe: kai amoek thuih kaminawk loe azatpaw o nasoe loe, ahminsethaih hoiah om o nasoe.
27Let them shout for joy, and be glad, that delight in my righteousness; yea, let them say continually: 'Magnified be the LORD, who delighteth in the peace of His servant.'
27Ka toenghaih pongah anghoe kaminawk loe, anghoehaih laa to sah o nasoe loe, nawm o nasoe: ue, Angmah ih tamna qoeng tahanghaih koeh Angraeng loe, lensawkhaih om nasoe, tiah thui o poe nasoe.
28And my tongue shall speak of Thy righteousness, and of Thy praise all the day.
28Ka palai mah loe na toenghaih ni thui ueloe, athun qui nang pakoehhaih lok to thui tih.
