< Saam 146 >
1 Angraeng to pakoeh ah. Aw ka hinghaih, Angraeng to pakoeh ah.
Alleluia, [a Psalm] of Aggaeus and Zacharias. My soul, praise the Lord.
2 Ka hing thung Angraeng to ka pakoeh han; ka hing thung boih ka Sithaw pakoehhaih laa to ka sak han.
While I live will I praise the Lord: I will sing praises to my God as long as I exist.
3 long angraengnawk to oep hmah, kami doeh oep hmah; nihcae mah abomh o thai mak ai.
Trust not in princes, nor in the children of men, in whom there is no safety.
4 Nihcae loe duek naah long ah ni amlaem o let; to naah nihcae poekhaihnawk boih to anghmat.
His breath shall go forth, and he shall return to his earth; in that day all his thoughts shall perish.
5 Jakob ih Sithaw to bomkung ah suem kami, a oephaih to angmah ih Angraeng Sithaw khaeah suem kami loe tahamhoih,
Blessed is he whose helper is the God of Jacob, whose hope is in the Lord his God:
6 Anih mah ni long hoi van, tuipui hoi athung ah kaom hmuennawk boih to sak; anih loe dungzan khoek to oepthoh;
who made heaven, and earth, the sea, and all things in them: who keeps truth for ever:
7 pacaekthlaek ih kaminawk to toenghaih hoiah lok a caek; zok amthlam kaminawk to buh a paek. Angraeng mah ni thongkrah kaminawk to loisak.
who executes judgement for the wronged: who gives food to the hungry. The Lord looses the fettered ones:
8 Angraeng mah mikmaengnawk to mik amtuengsak moe, poek pahnaem kaminawk to tapom tahang; katoeng kaminawk to Angraeng mah palung.
the Lord gives wisdom to the blind: The Lord sets up the broken down: the Lord loves the righteous: the Lord preserves the strangers;
9 Angraeng mah angvinnawk to toep moe, ampa tawn ai kami hoi lamhmainawk to pacah; toe kasae kaminawk ih loklam loe buenglueng tamlet ah ohsak.
he will relieve the orphan and widow: but will utterly remove the way of sinners.
10 Angraeng loe dungzan khoek to Angraeng ah om tih; Aw Zion, na Sithaw mah adungnawk boih khoek to uk tih. Angraeng to saphaw oh.
The Lord shall reign for ever, [even] your God, O Sion, to all generations.
