Saam 126

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

A Song of the Ascents. In Jehovah's turning back [to] the captivity of Zion, We have been as dreamers.

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 filled [with] laughter is our mouth, And our tongue [with] singing, Then do they say among nations, 'Jehovah did great things with these.'

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

Jehovah did great things with us, We have been joyful.

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

Turn again, O Jehovah, [to] our captivity, As streams in the south.

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

Those sowing in tears, with singing do reap,

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

Whoso goeth on and weepeth, Bearing the basket of seed, Surely cometh in with singing, bearing his sheaves!
