1Be merciful to me, God, for man wants to swallow me up. All day long, he attacks and oppresses me.
2Ka melmaten nitumin honvalh zoh a tum ua: kisatheitaka honsualte lah a tam ngal ua.
2My enemies want to swallow me up all day long, for they are many who fight proudly against me.
3Ka lau chiangin, nangmah kon muang hi.
3When I am afraid, I will put my trust in you.
4Pathian ah a thu ka phat dinga; Pathian ka gingta a, ka lau kei ding; sa in bang a honchih thei dia!
4In God, I praise his word. In God, I put my trust. I will not be afraid. What can flesh do to me?
5Nitumin ka thute a la kawi ua: a ngaihtuahna tengteng tuh ka hatlouhna ding lam ngen ahi.
5All day long they twist my words. All their thoughts are against me for evil.
6A kikhawm ua, a bu ua, ka khapte achiamteh ua, ka hinna hihmang tuma a ngak nak jiak un.
6They conspire and lurk, watching my steps, they are eager to take my life.
7Thulimlouhna in a suahtak san ding ua hia! Pathian aw, hehin michih hihniamin.
7Shall they escape by iniquity? In anger cast down the peoples, God.
8Nang ka vakvaihnate na chiamteh a: ka khituite na savun thawl ah thunin; na laibu-ah a tuang chiat kei ua hia!
8You number my wanderings. You put my tears into your bottle. Aren’t they in your book?
9Kon sap hun ngeingeiin hondoute tuh a taijak ding ua: hiai ka thei, Pathianin honpanpih hi.
9Then my enemies shall turn back in the day that I call. I know this, that God is for me.
10Pathian ah a thu ka phat dinga: Toupa ah a thu ka phat ding hi.
10In God, I will praise his word. In Yahweh, I will praise his word.
11Pathian ka gingtaa, ka lau kei ding; mihingin bang a honchih thei dia!
11I have put my trust in God. I will not be afraid. What can man do to me?
12Pathian aw, na kiangah thuchiamte ka neia: kipahthugen kikhopnatein ka honthuk ding hi.Ka hinna sihna lakah na humbit a; ka khete puk lou dingin na humbit jel keia hia! mihing vaka Pathian maa ka vak theihna dingin.
12Your vows are on me, God. I will give thank offerings to you.
13Ka hinna sihna lakah na humbit a; ka khete puk lou dingin na humbit jel keia hia! mihing vaka Pathian maa ka vak theihna dingin.
13For you have delivered my soul from death, and prevented my feet from falling, that I may walk before God in the light of the living.
