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 to us, Jehovah, not to us, but to your name be the glory, for your loving kindness and for your faithfulness.
2 Tipongah Sithaw panoek ai kaminawk mah, Nihcae ih Sithaw loe naa ah maw oh tiah thuih o loe?
Why should the nations say, "Where is their God, now?"
3 Aicae ih Sithaw loe van ah oh; anih loe a koeh baktiah hmuennawk to sak.
But our God is in the heavens. He does whatever he pleases.
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 do not speak. They have eyes, but they do not see.
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 do not hear. They have noses, but they do not smell.
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 do not feel. They have feet, but they do not walk, neither do they speak through their throat.
8 Krang sah kaminawk loe krang hoiah anghmong o, krang oephaih tawn kaminawk doeh krang baktiah ni oh o.
Those who make them will be like them; yes, everyone who trusts in them.
9 Aw Israel imthung takoh, Angraeng to oep ah; anih loe nangcae bomkung hoi angvaenghaih ah oh.
Israel, trust in Jehovah. He is their help and their shield.
10 Aaron imthung takoh, Angraeng to oep oh, anih loe nihcae bomkung hoi abuephaih ah oh.
House of Aaron, trust in Jehovah. He is their help and their shield.
11 Anih zii kaminawk, Angraeng to oep oh; anih loe nihcae bomkung hoi abuephaih ah oh.
You who fear Jehovah, trust in Jehovah. 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.
Jehovah remembers 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 those who fear Jehovah, both small and great.
14 Angraeng mah nangmah hoi na caanawk to pungsak aep nasoe.
May Jehovah increase you more and more, you and your children.
15 Van hoi long sahkung Angraeng mah tahamhoihhaih paek nasoe.
Blessed are you by Jehovah, who made heaven and earth.
16 Van hoi vannawk loe Angraeng ih ni; toe long loe kaminawk khaeah a paek boeh.
The heavens are the heavens of Jehovah; but the earth has he given to the descendants of Adam.
17 Angqai krang ahmuen ah caeh tathuk, kadueh kaminawk loe Angraeng to saphaw o vai ai.
The dead do not praise JAH, neither any who 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 JAH, from this time forth and forevermore. Praise JAH.
