Saam 130

1 Kasang laa. Aw Angraeng, kathuk ahmuen hoiah nang khaeah ka hangh.

[A Song of Ascents.] Out of the depths I have cried to you, YHWH.

2 Aw Angraeng, ka lok hae tahngai ah; tahmen kang hnikhaih lok bangah na naa to patueng ah.

YHWH, hear my voice. Let your ears be attentive to the voice of my petitions.

3 Angraeng, nang, zaehaihnawk to na pakuem soe nahaeloe, Aw Angraeng angdoe thai koi mi maw om tih?

If you, JAH, kept a record of sins, YHWH, who could stand?

4 Toe nang to zit thai hanah, kaicae hae nang tahmen boeh.

But there is forgiveness with you, so that you may be revered.

5 Kai loe Angraeng ni ka zing, ka hinghaih mah anih to zing, a lok ah oephaih to ka suek.

I wait for YHWH. My soul waits. I hope in his word.

6 Khodai zing kaminawk, khodai zing kaminawk pong kamthlai ah, ka hinghaih mah Angraeng to zing.

My soul longs for YHWH more than watchmen long for the morning; more than watchmen for the morning.

7 Angraeng ah palungnathaih hoi pop parai pahlonghaih oh pongah, Israel mah a oephaih to Angraeng ah suem nasoe.

Israel, hope in YHWH, for with YHWH there is loving kindness. With him is abundant redemption.

8 Anih mah Israel to zaehaihnawk boih thung hoiah akrang tih.

He will redeem Israel from all their sins.
