1 Angraeng to saphaw oh. Angraeng to zit moe, a paek ih loknawk nuiah anghoehaih tawn kami loe tahamhoih.

Praise ye Jah! O the happiness of one fearing Jehovah, In His commands he hath delighted greatly.

2 Anih ih caanawk loe long nuiah thacak o tih; katoeng kami ih caanawk loe tahamhoih o tih.

Mighty in the earth is his seed, The generation of the upright is blessed.

3 A im ah hmuenmae hoi angraenghaih to om tih; a toenghaih loe dungzan khoek to om poe tih.

Wealth and riches [are] in his house, And his righteousness is standing for ever.

4 Katoeng kami hanah loe, khoving thungah aanghaih to oh. To baktih kami loe tahmenhaih hoi amlunghaih to tawnh moe, toenghaih hoiah tok to sak.

Light hath risen in darkness to the upright, Gracious, and merciful, and righteous.

5 Kuuhoih moe, paek koehhaih palungthin tawn kami loe khosak hoih; anih loe toenghaih hoiah tok to sah tih.

Good [is] the man — gracious and lending, He sustaineth his matters in judgment.

6 Anih loe tasoehhaih om mak ai; katoeng kami loe dungzan khoek to pahnet mak ai.

For — to the age he is not moved; For a memorial age-during is the righteous.

7 Tamthang sae to anih mah zii mak ai; Angraeng to a oep pongah, palungthin to cak.

Of an evil report he is not afraid, Prepared is His heart, confident in Jehovah.

8 Anih ih palungthin loe cak, a misanawk pazawkhaih hnu ai karoek to zithaih tawn mak ai.

Sustained is his heart — he feareth not, Till that he look on his adversaries.

9 Anih loe amtang kaminawk hanah paek moe, pazet boih pongah, a toenghaih loe dungzan khoek to cak; angmah ih taki to pakoehhaih hoiah tapom tahang tih.

He hath scattered — hath given to the needy, His righteousness is standing for ever, His horn is exalted with honour.

10 Kahoih ai kami mah anih to hnuk naah, palung naa tih; anih loe haa to kaek ueloe, amro tih; to naah kasae kami koehhaih to anghmaa tih boeh.

The wicked seeth, and hath been angry, His teeth he gnasheth, and hath melted, The desire of the wicked doth perish!
