Baibal Olcim (Matupi Chin)
1Surely God is good to Israel, to those who are pure in heart.
1Thinko aka caih Israel taengah Pathen tah then taktak.
2But as for me, my feet were almost gone. My steps had nearly slipped.
2Tedae kai tah ka kho he bet bung khaw bung bangla, ka khokan paloe khaw paloe pawt bangla ka om.
3For I was envious of the arrogant, when I saw the prosperity of the wicked.
3Halang rhoek loh ngaimongnah neh a thangthen uh te ka hmuh vaengah ka thatlai coeng.
4For there are no struggles in their death, but their strength is firm.
4Amih tah dueknah dongah thuengthuelnah om pawt tih, a pumtak khaw len.
5They are free from burdens of men, neither are they plagued like other men.
5hlanghing kah thakthaenah loh amih te nan pawt tih hlanghing taengkah lucik khaw ya uh pawh.
6Therefore pride is like a chain around their neck. Violence covers them like a garment.
6Te dongah hoemnah te amih kah oihnun la om tih, a kuthlahnah hnisui a khuk uh.
7Their eyes bulge with fat. Their minds pass the limits of conceit.
7A mik tha te coe tih, a thinko ngaihlihnah loh vikvuek uh.
8They scoff and speak with malice. In arrogance, they threaten oppression.
8Boethae neh palawm uh tih cal uh. Hnaemtaeknah neh a sang la cal uh.
9They have set their mouth in the heavens. Their tongue walks through the earth.
9A ka te vaan ah a tael dae a lai loh diklai ah cet.
10Therefore their people return to them, and they drink up waters of abundance.
10Te dongah a pilnam loh hela ha mael ha mael tih khuengrhueng tui a yawn uh.
11They say, “How does God know? Is there knowledge in the Most High?”
11Te vaengah, “Pathen loh metlam a ming tih, Khohni taengah lungming khaw om van nim,” a ti uh.
12Behold, these are the wicked. Being always at ease, they increase in riches.
12Amih halang rhoek pataeng kumhal ah a khuehtawn loh thayoeituipan la a rhoeng pah daeta ke.
13Surely I have cleansed my heart in vain, and washed my hands in innocence,
13A poeyoek la ka thinko ka saelh tih, cimnah neh ka kut ka silh dae.
14For all day long I have been plagued, and punished every morning.
14Tedae hnin takuem lucik neh ka om tih mincang takuem ah kai taengah toelthamnah ha om.
15If I had said, “I will speak thus”, behold, I would have betrayed the generation of your children.
15Te tlam te ka tae koinih na ca rhoek kah thawnpuei te kan hnukpoh tak ve ka ti.
16When I tried to understand this, it was too painful for me—
16Hekah he ming ham ka moeh dae ka mik ah thakthaenah la om.
17until I entered God’s sanctuary, and considered their latter end.
17Pathen kah rhokso khuila ka kun daengah amih kah hmailong te ka yakming.
18Surely you set them in slippery places. You throw them down to destruction.
18Amih te long hnal ah na khueh tih pocinah la na cungku sak taktak.
19How they are suddenly destroyed! They are completely swept away with terrors.
19Mikhaptok ah mueirhih loh imsuep neh a thup uh tih a cing te metlam a om uh.
20As a dream when one wakes up, so, Lord, when you awake, you will despise their fantasies.
20Haenghang hnukah mueimang bangla ka Boeipa loh amih kah mueihlip a haenghang vaengah hnael pah.
21For my soul was grieved. I was embittered in my heart.
21Ka thinko loh khikhi hal tih ka hmuet a phawt vaengah.
22I was so senseless and ignorant. I was a brute beast before you.
22Kai loh ka kotalh tih na hmaiah rhamsa bangla ka om khaw ka ming pawh.
23Nevertheless, I am continually with you. You have held my right hand.
23Tedae kai tah nang taengah ka om taitu tih ka bantang kut nan tuuk.
24You will guide me with your counsel, and afterward receive me to glory.
24Na cilsuep neh kai nan mawt tih thangpomnah hnukah kai nan khoem ni.
25Whom do I have in heaven? There is no one on earth whom I desire besides you.
25Vaan dongah kai ham unim aka om. Tedae namah taengah ka om atah diklai ah ba khaw ka ngaih pawh.
26My flesh and my heart fails, but God is the strength of my heart and my portion forever.
26Ka pumsa neh ka thinko loh yawk mai suidae kumhal ah ka thinko kah lungpang neh ka hamsum la Pathen om.
27For, behold, those who are far from you shall perish. You have destroyed all those who are unfaithful to you.
27Namah lamkah a hlahloei loh a milh uh vaengah, nang taengah aka cukhalh boeih te na biit taktak coeng he.
28But it is good for me to come close to God. I have made the Lord GOD my refuge, that I may tell of all your works.
28Tedae kai loh kamah ham Pathen vang te ka kai. Na bitat cungkuem thui hamla ka hlipyingnah ka Boeipa Yahovah taengah a then ka khueh.
