Saam 115
1 Kaicae khaeah na ai, Aw Angraeng, kaicae khaeah na ai, na palungnathaih hoi na loktang lok pongah, na hmin lensawkhaih to om nasoe.
Not unto us, O YHWH, not unto us, but unto thy name give glory, for thy mercy, and for thy truth's sake.
2 Tipongah Sithaw panoek ai kaminawk mah, Nihcae ih Sithaw loe naa ah maw oh tiah thuih o loe?
Wherefore should the heathen say, Where is now their Elohim?
3 Aicae ih Sithaw loe van ah oh; anih loe a koeh baktiah hmuennawk to sak.
But our Elohim is in the heavens: he hath done whatsoever he hath pleased.
4 Nihcae ih krang loe kami ban hoiah sak ih sumkanglung hoi sui ah ni oh.
Their idols are silver and gold, the work of men's hands.
5 Nihcae loe pakha tawnh o, toe lok apae o thai ai; mik a tawnh o, toe hnu o thai ai;
They have mouths, but they speak not: eyes have they, but they see not:
6 naa a tawnh o, toe thaih o thai ai, hnah doeh a tawnh o, toe ahmui thaih o thai ai;
They have ears, but they hear not: noses have they, but they smell not:
7 ban a tawnh o, toe sui o thai ai; khok a tawnh o, toe caeh o thai ai; taaw hoiah lokthui o thai ai.
They have hands, but they handle not: feet have they, but they walk not: neither speak they through their throat.
8 Krang sah kaminawk loe krang hoiah anghmong o, krang oephaih tawn kaminawk doeh krang baktiah ni oh o.
They that make them are like unto them; so is every one that trusteth in them.
9 Aw Israel imthung takoh, Angraeng to oep ah; anih loe nangcae bomkung hoi angvaenghaih ah oh.
O Israel, trust thou in YHWH: he is their help and their shield.
10 Aaron imthung takoh, Angraeng to oep oh, anih loe nihcae bomkung hoi abuephaih ah oh.
O house of Aaron, trust in YHWH: he is their help and their shield.
11 Anih zii kaminawk, Angraeng to oep oh; anih loe nihcae bomkung hoi abuephaih ah oh.
Ye that fear YHWH, trust in YHWH: he is their help and their shield.
12 Angraeng mah aicae pahnet mak ai; aicae hanah angmah ih tahamhoihaih to paek tih: Israel imthung takoh to tahamhoihaih paek ueloe, Aaron imthung takoh doeh tahamhoihhaih paek tih.
YHWH hath been mindful of us: he will bless us; he will bless the house of Israel; he will bless the house of Aaron.
13 Kathoeng doeh kalen doeh, Angraeng zii kaminawk loe anih mah tahamhoihaih to paek tih.
He will bless them that fear YHWH, both small and great.
14 Angraeng mah nangmah hoi na caanawk to pungsak aep nasoe.
YHWH shall increase you more and more, you and your children.
15 Van hoi long sahkung Angraeng mah tahamhoihhaih paek nasoe.
Ye are blessed of YHWH which made heaven and earth.
16 Van hoi vannawk loe Angraeng ih ni; toe long loe kaminawk khaeah a paek boeh.
The heaven, even the heavens, are YHWH 's: but the earth hath he given to the children of men.
17 Angqai krang ahmuen ah caeh tathuk, kadueh kaminawk loe Angraeng to saphaw o vai ai.
The dead praise not YHWH, neither any that go down into silence.
18 Toe kaicae loe vaihi hoi dungzan khoek to Angraeng tahamhoihaih ka paek o han. Angraeng to saphaw oh.
But we will bless YAH from this time forth and for evermore. Praise YHWH.
