Asang Khongca Bible (Eastern Khumi Chin, 2019)
1Don’t fret because of evildoers, neither be envious against those who work unrighteousness.
1Hmuensae sah kaminawk pongah palungboeng hmah loe, nihcae to awt hmah.
2For they shall soon be cut down like the grass, and wither like the green herb.
2Nihcae loe akra ai ah qam baktiah aat ueloe, qam kahing baktiah azaem o tih.
3Trust in the LORD, and do good. Dwell in the land, and enjoy safe pasture.
3Angraeng to oep ah loe, kahoih hmuen to sah ah; prae thungah om ah loe, poek caksak ah.
4Also delight yourself in the LORD, and he will give you the desires of your heart.
4Angraeng ah anghoehaih tawn ah, to tih nahaeloe palung thung hoi na koeh ih hmuen to na paek tih.
5Commit your way to the LORD. Trust also in him, and he will do this:
5Na caehhaih loklam to Angraeng khaeah aap ah; anih to oep ah; to tih nahaeloe angmah na hoi tih.
6he will make your righteousness shine out like light, and your justice as the noon day sun.
6Anih mah loe na toenghaih to hmai baktih, katoengah takroek ih lok to athun ih ni aengh baktiah aangsak tih.
7Rest in the LORD, and wait patiently for him. Don’t fret because of him who prospers in his way, because of the man who makes wicked plots happen.
7Angraeng hmaa ah anghngai duem ah loe, anih to palungsawkhaih hoiah zing ah: a caehhaih loklam amkah hanah toksah thaih, sethaih poeng hanah toksah thaih kami pongah palungboeng hmah.
8Cease from anger, and forsake wrath. Don’t fret; it leads only to evildoing.
8Palungphui hmah loe, palung doeh baesak hmah: zaehaih sak hanah kahoih ai poekhaih to tawn hmah.
9For evildoers shall be cut off, but those who wait for the LORD shall inherit the land.
9Sethaih sah kaminawk loe pahnawt sut ah om tih, toe Angraeng zing kaminawk loe long to toep o tih.
10For yet a little while, and the wicked will be no more. Yes, though you look for his place, he isn’t there.
10Sethaih sah kami loe akra ai ah om mak ai boeh: ue, anih ih ahmuen to na pakrong khing cadoeh, na hnu mak ai.
11But the humble shall inherit the land, and shall delight themselves in the abundance of peace.
11Toe tuinom tawn kaminawk loe long hae toep o ueloe, kating ai monghaih hoiah khosak nawm o tih.
12The wicked plots against the just, and gnashes at him with his teeth.
12Kasae kami mah loe katoeng kami to pacaeng moe, haa a kaek thuih.
13The Lord will laugh at him, for he sees that his day is coming.
13Toe anih ih atue pha tih boeh, tiah Angraeng mah panoek pongah, anih to pahnui thuih.
14The wicked have drawn out the sword, and have bent their bow, to cast down the poor and needy, to kill those who are upright on the path.
14Kasae kaminawk mah amtang kaminawk to amtimsak moe, toenghaih sah kaminawk to hum hanah, sumsen aphong thuih pacoengah, kalii to anueng thuih.
15Their sword shall enter into their own heart. Their bows shall be broken.
15Toe angmacae ih sumsen mah angmacae ih palung to thun pae ueloe, palaanawk doeh angkhaek pae tih.
16Better is a little that the righteous has, than the abundance of many wicked.
16Kahoih ai kami angraeng parai pongah loe, katoeng kami mah tawn ih hmuen zetta to hoih kue.
17For the arms of the wicked shall be broken, but the LORD upholds the righteous.
17Kasae kami ih ban loe angkhaek tih: toe katoeng kami loe Angraeng mah patawnh.
18The LORD knows the days of the perfect. Their inheritance shall be forever.
18Katoeng kaminawk ih aninawk loe Angraeng mah panoek pae: nihcae ih qawk loe dungzan khoek to cak poe tih.
19They shall not be disappointed in the time of evil. In the days of famine they shall be satisfied.
19Nihcae loe sethaih tue phak naah azatpaw o mak ai; takaang thohhaih atue naah doeh zok amhah o tih.
20But the wicked shall perish. The enemies of the LORD shall be like the beauty of the fields. They will vanish— vanish like smoke.
20Toe kahoih ai kami loe anghma angtaa tih: Angraeng ih misanawk loe kathawk tuu baktiah om o cadoeh, amro o ueloe, hmaikhue baktiah anghma o boih tih.
21The wicked borrow, and don’t pay back, but the righteous give generously.
21Kahoih ai kami loe hmuenmae to coi, toe pathok let ai: toe katoeng kami mah loe palungnathaih to amtuengsak moe, paek let.
22For such as are blessed by him shall inherit the land. Those who are cursed by him shall be cut off.
22Angraeng tahamhoihaih tongh kaminawk loe, long hae toep o tih; anih mah tangoeng ih kaminawk loe pahnawt sut tih.
23A man’s steps are established by the LORD. He delights in his way.
23Kahoih kami ih khok tangkannawk loe Angraeng mah caksak; a caehhaih loklam nuiah palung tongh.
24Though he stumble, he shall not fall, for the LORD holds him up with his hand.
24Anih loe amthaek cadoeh, amtim bung mak ai: tipongah tih nahaeloe Angraeng mah anih ih ban to patawnh pae.
25I have been young, and now am old, yet I have not seen the righteous forsaken, nor his children begging for bread.
25Katoeng kami to pahnawt sut, anih ih caanawk loe buh hnik o ti, tiah ka qoeng li nathuem hoi kamtong vaihi mitong khoek to ka panoek vai ai vop.
26All day long he deals graciously, and lends. His offspring is blessed.
26Anih loe tahmenhaih tawnh moe, minawk han a paek pongah, a caanawk mah tahamhoihaih hnuk o.
27Depart from evil, and do good. Live securely forever.
27Kasae hmuen to caehtaak ah loe, kahoih hmuen to sah ah; to tiah nahaeloe prae thungah na om poe tih.
28For the LORD loves justice, and doesn’t forsake his saints. They are preserved forever, but the children of the wicked shall be cut off.
28Angraeng loe toenghaih to koeh pongah, angmah ih kaciim kaminawk to pahnawt sut ai; nihcae to dungzan khoek to khet poe: toe kasae kaminawk ih caanawk loe pahnawt suthaih to tongh o tih.
29The righteous shall inherit the land, and live in it forever.
29Katoeng kami loe long to toep ueloe, to ah dungzan khoek to om tih.
30The mouth of the righteous talks of wisdom. His tongue speaks justice.
30Katoeng kami ih pakha mah loe palunghahaih lok to thuih; anih ih palai mah doeh toenghaih lok ni thuih.
31The law of his God is in his heart. None of his steps shall slide.
31Anih loe Sithaw ih kaalok to palung thungah suek pongah, a caeh naah amthaek mak ai.
32The wicked watch the righteous, and seek to kill him.
32Kasae kami loe katoeng kami to hum hanah, angang.
33The LORD will not leave him in his hand, nor condemn him when he is judged.
33Toe Angraeng mah anih to kasae kami ban ah caehtaak sut mak ai, lokcaek naah doeh anih to sungsak mak ai.
34Wait for the LORD, and keep his way, and he will exalt you to inherit the land. When the wicked are cut off, you shall see it.
34Angraeng to zing ah loe a loklam to pazui ah, prae toep hanah anih mah na pakoeh tih: kasae kaminawk amro o naah, to hmuen to na hnu tih.
35I have seen the wicked in great power, spreading himself like a green tree in its native soil.
35Kasae kami loe thacak moe, long kahoih pongah amprawk thing kahing baktiah qoeng tahang to ka hnuk.
36But he passed away, and behold, he was not. Yes, I sought him, but he could not be found.
36Toe anih loe laemh ving boeh, khenah, om ai boeh: ue, anih to ka pakrong, toe anih loe hnu thai ai boeh.
37Mark the perfect man, and see the upright, for there is a future for the man of peace.
37Kahoih kami hnuk ah bangah, katoeng kami to khen ah: to tiah sah kami loe hnukkhuem ah monghaih to hnu tih.
38As for transgressors, they shall be destroyed together. The future of the wicked shall be cut off.
38Zaehaih sah kaminawk loe amro o ueloe, sethaih sah kaminawk loe hnukkhuem ah amrohaih tong o tih.
39But the salvation of the righteous is from the LORD. He is their stronghold in the time of trouble.
39Katoeng kami pahlonghaih loe Angraeng ih ni: raihaih tongh naah Angraeng loe nihcae thacakhaih ah oh.
40The LORD helps them and rescues them. He rescues them from the wicked and saves them, because they have taken refuge in him.
40Angraeng mah nihcae to abomh ueloe, pahlong tih: anih khaeah amha o pongah, anih mah kasae kaminawk ban thung hoiah nihcae to pahlong tih.
