Saam 126

1 Kasang laa. Angraeng mah Zion kaminawk hoih let naah, kaicae loe amang baktiah ni ka oh o.

A Song of Ascents. When Yahweh brought back the captives of Zion, we were like them who dream:

2 Kaicae ih pakhanawk loe pahnuihaih hoiah koi moe, palainawk doeh anghoe laasakhaih hoiah koi o; to naah Sithaw panoek ai kaminawk mah, Angaeng mah nihcae hanah kalen parai hmuen sak pae boeh, tiah thuih o.

Then, was our mouth, filled with laughter, and our tongue with a shout of triumph, —Then, said they among the nations, Yahweh, hath done great things, with these!

3 Angraeng mah aicae hanah kalen parai hmuennawk to sak boeh, to pongah aicae loe anghoehaih hoiah koi o.

Yahweh, hath done great things with us, we are full of joy!

4 Aw Angraeng, misong ah naeh ih kaicae hae, aloih bang ih vacongnawk baktiah, amlaemsak let ah.

Bring thou back, O Yahweh, our captives, like channels in the South.

5 Mikkhraetui hoi tuh kaminawk loe, anghoehaih hoiah aat o tih.

They who are sowing with tears, with shouting, shall reap:

6 Qahhaih hoi atho kaom, cangtii tuk hanah caeh kaminawk loe, cangqui to sin o ueloe, anghoehaih hoiah amlaem o let tih.

He that, doth indeed go forth, and weep, bearing seed enough to trail along, doth, surely come in, with shouting, bringing his sheaves.
