Psalms 79
JPS Tanakh (Jewish Publication Society, 1917)
Baibal Olcim (Matupi Chin)
1A Psalm of Asaph. O God, the heathen are come into Thine inheritance; they have defiled Thy holy temple; they have made Jerusalem into heaps.
1Pathen aw, namtom rhoek loh na rho a kun uh thil tih, na bawkim cim te a poeih uh. Jerusalem te lairhok bangla a khueh uh.
2They have given the dead bodies of Thy servants to be food unto the fowls of the heaven, the flesh of Thy saints unto the beasts of the earth.
2Na sal rhoek kah a rhok te vaan kah vaa taengah, na hlangcim rhoek kah a saa te diklai mulhing taengah cakok la a paek uh.
3They have shed their blood like water round about Jerusalem, with none to bury them.
3Amih thii te Jerusalem kaepvai ah tui bangla a hawk uh tih aka up om pawh.
4We are become a taunt to our neighbours, a scorn and derision to them that are round about us.
4Kaimih he imben rhoek kah kokhahnah, ka taengvai kah tamdaengnah neh soehsalnah la ka om uh.
5How long, O LORD, wilt Thou be angry for ever? How long will Thy jealousy burn like fire?
5BOEIPA aw me hil nim na thin a toek ve? Na thatlainah te hmai bangla rhong yoeyah aya?
6Pour out Thy wrath upon the nations that know Thee not, and upon the kingdoms that call not upon Thy name.
6Nang aka ming pawh namtom rhoek so neh na ming aka khue mueh ram soah na kosi hawk thil lah.
7For they have devoured Jacob, and laid waste his habitation.
7Jakob te a yoop uh tih a tolkhoeng te a pong sak uh.
8Remember not against us the iniquities of our forefathers; let Thy compassions speedily come to meet us; for we are brought very low.
8Lamhm a kathaesainah a rho kaimih taengah thoelh boel lamtah dikdik ka tlayae uh dongah na haidamnah kaimih koe n'doe uh saeh.
9Help us, O God of our salvation, for the sake of the glory of Thy name; and deliver us, and forgive our sins, for Thy name's sake.
9Kaimih kah daemnah Pathen aw na thangpomnah ming ham kaimih m'bom dae. Na ming kongah kaimih n'huul lamtah kaimih kah tholhnah te han dawth dae.
10Wherefore should the nations say: 'Where is their God?' Let the avenging of Thy servants' blood that is shed be made known among the nations in our sight.
10Balae tih namtom rhoek loh, A Pathen khaw melae?,” a ti uh eh. Na sal rhoek kah thii aka hawk namtom taengah tawnlohnah loh kaimih mikhmuh ah aka thoeng te namtom rhoek loh ming uh saeh.
11Let the groaning of the prisoner come before Thee; according to the greatness of Thy power set free those that are appointed to death;
11Thongtl a kah a kiinah loh namah taengla ha pawk saeh. Dueknah cadil rhoek te na boeilennah bantha neh sueng sak.
12And render unto our neighbours sevenfold into their bosom their reproach, wherewith they have reproached Thee, O Lord.
12Te vaengah kaimih kah imben rhoek te voeirhih la thuung lah. A kodang ah amih kah kokhahnah neh Boeipa namah ni m'veet uh coeng te.
13So we that are Thy people and the flock of Thy pasture will give Thee thanks for ever; we will tell of Thy praise to all generations.
13Te dongah na pilnam kaimih neh na rhamtlim kah boiva long tah, namah te kumhal duela kan uem uh ni. Cadilcahma neh cadilcahma hil nang koehnah te ka tae uh ni.
