Saam 128

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

“A psalm of the steps, or the goings up.” Happy is he who feareth the LORD, Who walketh in his ways!

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

Thou shalt eat the labor 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 like a fruitful vine within thy house; Thy children like olive-branches round about thy table.

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

Behold! thus happy is the man who feareth the LORD!

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

Jehovah shall bless thee out of Zion, And thou shalt see the prosperity of Jerusalem all the days of thy life;

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

Yea, thou shalt see thy children's children. Peace be to Israel!
