Saam 84
1 Katoeng kruek zaehoikung hanah. Gittih baktiah sak koi Korah caanawk ih Saam laa. Aw misatuh kaminawk ih Angraeng, na ohhaih kahni im loe kawkruk maw palung han oh!
How amiable are thy tabernacles, O YHWH of hosts!
2 Ue, Angraeng ih longhmaa to dawn loiah, ka hinghaih loe zaisut boeh; ka palungthin hoi ka ngan mah kahing Sithaw to kawk.
My soul longeth, yea, even fainteth for the courts of YHWH: my heart and my flesh crieth out for the living El.
3 Aw misatuh kaminawk ih Angraeng, ka Siangpahrang hoi ka Sithaw, ue, na hmaicam ah, paritca mah tabu sak, a caa khaek haih hanah, pungpae mah tabu to boh.
Yea, the sparrow hath found an house, and the swallow a nest for herself, where she may lay her young, even thine altars, O YHWH of hosts, my King, and my Elohim.
4 Na im ah kaom kaminawk loe tahamhoih o; nang to saphaw o poe tih. (Selah)
Blessed are they that dwell in thy house: they will be still praising thee. (Selah)
5 Nang ah thacakhaih tawn kaminawk loe tahamhoih o; to kaminawk loe na loklam bangah palungthin to suek o.
Blessed is the man whose strength is in thee; in whose heart are the ways of them.
6 Nihcae Baca azawn ah caeh o naah, tuibap tui to takaeh o; khotui mah tui hoiah koisak.
Who passing through the valley of Baca make it a well; the rain also filleth the pools.
7 Nihcae loe thacak o aep, Zion ih kaminawk loe Sithaw hmaa ah angphong o boih.
They go from strength to strength, every one of them in Zion appeareth before Elohim.
8 Aw misatuh kaminawk ih Angraeng Sithaw, lawk ka thuihaih hae tahngai ah; aw Jakob Sithaw, tahngai rae ah.
O YHWH Elohim of hosts, hear my prayer: give ear, O Elohim of Jacob. (Selah)
9 Khenah, Aw Sithaw kaicae abuephaih, nangmah na caksak kami ih mikhmai to khen ah.
Behold, O Elohim our shield, and look upon the face of thine anointed.
10 Ahmuen kalah bangah saning sangto oh pongah loe, nangmah ih longhmaa ah nito oh hae hoih kue. Kasae kaminawk ih kahni im ah oh pongah loe, ka Angraeng im thungah thok toepkung ah ka oh khoek roek han.
For a day in thy courts is better than a thousand. I had rather be a doorkeeper in the house of my Elohim, than to dwell in the tents of wickedness.
11 Angraeng Sithaw loe ni hoi abuephaih ah oh; Angraeng mah tahmenhaih hoi lensawkhaih to paek tih; loklam katoengah caeh kaminawk hanah loe hmuen kahoih roe paawt pae mak ai.
For YHWH Elohim is a sun and shield: YHWH will give favour and glory: no good thing will he withhold from them that walk uprightly.
12 Aw misatuh kaminawk ih Angraeng, nang oephaih tawn kami loe tahamhoih.
O YHWH of hosts, blessed is the man that trusteth in thee.
