Saam 128

1 Kasang laa. Angraeng to zit moe, anih ih loklam pazui kaminawk boih loe tahamhoih.

A Song of degrees. Blessed is every one that feareth Jehovah, that walketh in his ways.

2 Na toksakhaih athaih to na caa tih; anghoehaih hoi khosakhoihaih doeh na tawn tih.

For thou shalt eat the labour of thy hands; happy shalt thou be, and it shall be well with thee.

3 Na zu loe na imtaeng ih kathai parai misurkung baktiah om ueloe, na caanawk loe na caboi taengah kaom olive tadoknawk baktiah om o tih.

Thy wife shall be as a fruitful vine in the inner part of thy house; thy children like olive-plants round about thy table.

4 Khenah, Angraeng zii kami loe to tiah om tih.

Behold, thus shall the man be blessed that feareth Jehovah.

5 Angraeng mah Zion hoiah tahamhoihaih na paek ueloe, na hing thungah Jerusalem tahamhoihaih to na hnu tih.

Jehovah will bless thee out of Zion; and mayest thou see the good of Jerusalem all the days of thy life,

6 Ue, na caanawk ih caa patoeng doeh na hnu tih, Israel nuiah monghaih om nasoe.

And see thy children's children. Peace be upon Israel!
