¹Ka phat Pathian aw, dai nilouh ken:

²for they have opened the mouth of the wicked and the mouth of deceit against me. They have spoken to me with a lying tongue.

²Migilou-salou kam leh kam khemhat tuh ka tungah a hang ngal ua: amau tuh lei juautheiin ka kiangah thu a gen uhi.

³They have also surrounded me with words of hatred, and fought against me without a cause.

³Huatna thuin honum suak ua, bangmahlouin a hondou uhi.

⁴In return for my love, they are my adversaries; but I am in prayer.

⁴Ka it jiakin a hondoute a honghita uhi: himahleh kei jaw thum thum dingin ka kipe chinten hi.

⁵They have rewarded me evil for good, and hatred for my love.

⁵Aman thil hoih tuh thil gilouin honthuk ua, ka itna tuh huatna mahin a honthuk uhi.

⁶Set a wicked man over him. Let an adversary stand at his right hand.

⁶Nang a tungah mi gilou koih inla: a tak lamah hekmi ding hen.

⁷When he is judged, let him come forth guilty. Let his prayer be turned into sin.

⁷Vaihawmsaka a om chiangin siamlouh tangin pawt henla: a thumna tuh khelhna ah suak hen.

⁸Let his days be few. Let another take his office.

⁸A damsung nite tuh tom henla; a heutu hihna midangin tang hen.

⁹Let his children be fatherless, and his wife a widow.

⁹A tate tuh pa louin om uhenla, a ji mahleng meithaiin om hen.

¹⁰Let his children be wandering beggars. Let them be sought from their ruins.

¹⁰A tate tuh mi vakvai honghiin, khutdoh uhenla; a nekding uh a mun gamsiate ah zong uhen.

¹¹Let the creditor seize all that he has. Let strangers plunder the fruit of his labor.

¹¹A pung delha dangka leitawisakin a neih tengteng laksak vek henla; mikhualten a sepgim gah lok uhen.

¹²Let there be no one to extend kindness to him, neither let there be anyone to have pity on his fatherless children.

¹²A tunga chitna langsak jel ding kuamah om sam kei uhenla; a ta paneiloute hehpihpa ding kuamah om kei hen.

¹³Let his posterity be cut off. In the generation following let their name be blotted out.

¹³A suante hihmanin om uhen la; khangthak hongom nawnah a min uh nul mangin om hen.

¹⁴Let the iniquity of his fathers be remembered by Yahweh. Don’t let the sin of his mother be blotted out.

¹⁴A pipute uh gitlouh-satlouhna TOUPA kiangah theigigein om henla: a nu khelhna tuh nul mangin om kei hen.

¹⁵Let them be before Yahweh continually, that he may cut off their memory from the earth;

¹⁵Huaite tuh TOUPA maah om gige heh. Aman a mau theihgigena lei akipan a hihmang theihna dingin.

¹⁶because he didn’t remember to show kindness, but persecuted the poor and needy man, the broken in heart, to kill them.

¹⁶Chitna latsak nadan a theihlouh ua, mi genthei tagah leh khasiate hihlup tuma a sawi zosop jiak un:

¹⁷Yes, he loved cursing, and it came to him. He didn’t delight in blessing, and it was far from him.

¹⁷A hi, mi hamsiat tuh a utlam ahi a, huchiin amah tungah a hongtunga: mi vualjawl tuh a kipahlam ahi keia, huchiin amah gamlat piin a om hi.

¹⁸He clothed himself also with cursing as with his garment. It came into his inward parts like water, like oil into his bones.

¹⁸Puanak tual silh bangin hamsiatnain a kivana, huai tuh a gilsung khawngah tui bangina luta, a guh khawngah thau bangin a leng lut hi.

¹⁹Let it be to him as the clothing with which he covers himself, for the belt that is always around him.

¹⁹Huai tuh amah a dingin silh gige puansilh bangin om henla, a kigak jelna kawnggak mahleng hi hen.

²⁰This is the reward of my adversaries from Yahweh, of those who speak evil against my soul.

²⁰Huai tuh hondoute leh ka hinna gensete TOUPAN a thukna ahi.

²¹But deal with me, Yahweh the Lord, The word translated “Lord” is “Adonai.” for your name’s sake, because your loving kindness is good, deliver me;

²¹Himahleh, TOUPA Pathian aw, nang na min jiakin honhehpih inla: na chitna a hoih jiakin honhumbit in.

²²for I am poor and needy. My heart is wounded within me.

²²Genthei leh tagah tak ka hia, ka lungtang tuh ka gilsungah liamin a om ngal hi.

²³I fade away like an evening shadow. I am shaken off like a locust.

²³Lim kiamlam bangin ka manga: khaupe bangin mutlengin ka om hi.

²⁴My knees are weak through fasting. My body is thin and lacks fat.

²⁴Ka khukte ann ngawl jiakin a hatta keia; ka sain thau himhim a puta kei hi.

²⁵I have also become a reproach to them. When they see me, they shake their head.

²⁵Amau gensiat ka nahita a; honmuh tak un a lu uh a sing jel uhi.

²⁶Help me, Yahweh, my God. Save me according to your loving kindness;

²⁶TOUPA ka Pathian aw, honpanpih inla; aw na chitna bang jelin honhondamin;

²⁷that they may know that this is your hand; that you, Yahweh, have done it.

²⁷Huai tuh na khut ahi, chih a theih ua, TOUPA, nang na hih ahi chih a theihna ding un.

²⁸They may curse, but you bless. When they arise, they will be shamed, but your servant shall rejoice.

²⁸Amau hamsiat uhen, nang jaw vualjawl jawin: a thoh tak un a zahlak ding ua, na sikha bel a nuamsa ding hi.

²⁹Let my adversaries be clothed with dishonor. Let them cover themselves with their own shame as with a robe.

²⁹Hondoute zumna puansilh sakin om uhenla, puannak-a kivan bangin amau zahlaknain kivan uhen.

³⁰I will give great thanks to Yahweh with my mouth. Yes, I will praise him among the multitude.

³⁰Ka kamin TOUPA kiangah kipahthu nakpi takin ka gen dinga; ahi, mipi lakah amah ka phat ding hi.Amah tuh tagahte taklamah a dinga, a hinna vaihawmsakte laka hondam dingin.

³¹For he will stand at the right hand of the needy, to save him from those who judge his soul.

³¹Amah tuh tagahte taklamah a dinga, a hinna vaihawmsakte laka hondam dingin.
