¹Toupa ka ngakngaka: huchiin aman a ngeingaiha, ka kikou tuh a zata hi.

¹I waited patiently for Yahweh. He turned to me, and heard my cry.

²Manthatna kokhuk a kipan, buannawi diadua a kipan a honkhai khetou a: huan, ka khe tuh suangpi tungah a nga a, ka kalsuante a hihkip hi.

²He brought me up also out of a horrible pit, out of the miry clay. He set my feet on a rock, and gave me a firm place to stand.

³La thak ka kam ah koiha, i Pathian phatna: mi tampi in huai tuh a mu ding ua, a lau ding ua, Toupa a muang ding uh.

³He has put a new song in my mouth, even praise to our God. Many shall see it, and fear, and shall trust in Yahweh.

⁴Toupa a muana nei a, ki sathei te leh thujuau a kipana kihemkhiate tuh a hampha hi.

⁴Blessed is the man who makes Yahweh his trust, and doesn’t respect the proud, nor such as turn aside to lies.

⁵Toupa ka Pathian aw, nang thillamdang na hihte leh koumau lam non ngiahtuahnate a tam mahmaha, huaite na maa hihlat zoh vual ahi kei ding.

⁵Many, Yahweh, my God, are the wonderful works which you have done, and your thoughts which are toward us. They can’t be declared back to you. If I would declare and speak of them, they are more than can be numbered.

⁶Kithoihna leh thillat tungah kipahna himhim na neikeia; ka bilte non honsakta a; halmanga thillat leh khelhna dinga thillat na phut kei hi.

⁶Sacrifice and offering you didn’t desire. You have opened my ears. You have not required burnt offering and sin offering.

⁷Huaitakin, ken, Ngaiin, ka hongpai hi; laibu jial ah ka thu gelh ahi.

⁷Then I said, “Behold, I have come. It is written about me in the book in the scroll.

⁸Ka Pathian aw, na deihlam hih ka kipahlam tak ahi; ahi, na dan thu ka lungtang ah a om gige hi, ka chi a.

⁸I delight to do your will, my God. Yes, your law is within my heart.”

⁹Kikhopna thupitak ah diktatna thu hoih ka tangkoupiha; Toupa aw, ngaiin, ka kam ka it kei ding chih na thei hi.

⁹I have proclaimed glad news of righteousness in the great assembly. Behold, I will not seal my lips, Yahweh, you know.

¹⁰Na diktatna ka lungtang sungah ka im keia; na ginomna leh na hotdamna thu ka tangkoupih zo ding; Na chitna leh na takna kikhopna thupi taka mite lakah ka selkei ding hi.

¹⁰I have not hidden your righteousness within my heart. I have declared your faithfulness and your salvation. I have not concealed your loving kindness and your truth from the great assembly.

¹¹Toupa aw, na lainatnate ka lakah it kenla; na chitna leh na takna in honhumbit gige in.

¹¹Don’t withhold your tender mercies from me, Yahweh. Let your loving kindness and your truth continually preserve me.

¹²Thil hoihlou sim zohlouh in hon umsuak ngala, ka thulimlouhnaten hon delhphaa, huchiin ka dak theita keia; huaite tuh ka samzang te sangin a tamjaw a, ka lungtang a tawlta hi.

¹²For innumerable evils have surrounded me. My iniquities have overtaken me, so that I am not able to look up. They are more than the hairs of my head. My heart has failed me.

¹³Toupa aw, hehpihtak in honhumbit inla; Toupa aw, honpanpih ding in kin in.

¹³Be pleased, Yahweh, to deliver me. Hurry to help me, Yahweh.

¹⁴Ka hinna hihmang tuma zongte zahlak leh zum takin om chiat uhen; ka siatna tunga kipakte kik nawn in hih zuminom uhen.

¹⁴Let them be disappointed and confounded together who seek after my soul to destroy it. Let them be turned backward and brought to dishonor who delight in my hurt.

¹⁵Awihang, awihang! Honchite a zahlak jiak un mangbang takin om uhen.

¹⁶Nang hon zongte tengteng nangmah ah nuamtak leh kipak takin om uhenla; na hotdamna itten, Toupa pahtawiin om hen, chi gige uhen.Kei jaw genthei leh jawngsan ka hi a, himahleh Toupan honngaihtuah jela; nang hon panpihpa leh hon humbitpa na hia; ka Pathian aw, sawt hal mahmah ken.

¹⁶Let all those who seek you rejoice and be glad in you. Let such as love your salvation say continually, “Let Yahweh be exalted!”

¹⁷Kei jaw genthei leh jawngsan ka hi a, himahleh Toupan honngaihtuah jela; nang hon panpihpa leh hon humbitpa na hia; ka Pathian aw, sawt hal mahmah ken.

¹⁷But I am poor and needy. May the Lord think about me. You are my help and my deliverer. Don’t delay, my God.
