1{To the chief Musician. On stringed instruments, upon Sheminith. A Psalm of David.} Jehovah, rebuke me not in thine anger, and chasten me not in thy hot displeasure.
1TOUPA aw, hehin honsal kenla, thangpaiin honsawi sam ken.
2Be gracious unto me, Jehovah, for I am withered; Jehovah, heal me, for my bones tremble.
2Toupa aw, honhehpihin, ka gim gawpta ngala: TOUPA aw, hondam sakin; ka guhte khawng lah a na vekta ngala;
3And my soul trembleth exceedingly: and thou, Jehovah, till how long?
3Ka hinna leng nakpitaka hihmangbatin a om hi: TOUPA aw, nang bangtan ahia non etsim ding?
4Return, Jehovah, free my soul; save me for thy loving-kindness' sake.
4TOUPA aw, hongkik nawn inla, ka hinna hondamin: na hoihna phatna jiakin honhondamin;
5For in death there is no remembrance of thee; in Sheol who shall give thanks unto thee?
5Sih nungin nang theihgegena a om ngal keia: Sheol ah kuan ahia na tunga kipahthu gen ding?
6I am wearied with my groaning; all the night make I my bed to swim; I dissolve my couch with my tears.
6Ka mauna lamah ka bahta; jan tengin ka lupna tuh tui ah ka kilam saka; ka lupna tuh ka khituiin ka kawtsak jel hi;
7Mine eye wasteth away through grief; it hath grown old because of all mine oppressors.
7Ka mit tuh lungkhamna jiakin a se hulhula; hondoute jiakin a hongtek deuhdeuhta a.
8Depart from me, all ye workers of iniquity; for Jehovah hath heard the voice of my weeping.
8Nou, na gilou semte tengteng aw, honpaisan vek un; TOUPAN ka kahging a zata ngala;
9Jehovah hath heard my supplication; Jehovah receiveth my prayer.
9TOUPAN hehpihna ka nget lah a ngaikheta a; TOUPAN ka thumna tuh a kipahpih ding hi;Hondoute tengteng tuh a zahlak un a mangbang mahmah ding ua; a kik nawm ding ua, thakhatin a hongzahlak guih ding uhi.
10All mine enemies shall be ashamed and tremble exceedingly; they will turn, they will be ashamed suddenly.
10Hondoute tengteng tuh a zahlak un a mangbang mahmah ding ua; a kik nawm ding ua, thakhatin a hongzahlak guih ding uhi.
