Saam 85

1 Katoeng kruek zaehoikung hanah. Korah caanawk ih Saam laa. Aw Angraeng, na prae thungah palung koi kaom hmuen to nam tuengsak; naeh ih Jakob acaengnawk to na hoih let.

For the choirmaster. A Psalm of the sons of Korah. You showed favor to Your land, O LORD; You restored Jacob from captivity.

2 Nangmah ih kaminawk sakpazaehaih to na tahmen moe, nihcae zaehaih to na khuk pae. (Selah)

You forgave the iniquity of Your people; You covered all their sin.

3 Palung na phuihaihnawk to na takhoe boih; thacak palung na phuihaih to nang qoi taak.

You withheld all Your fury; You turned from Your burning anger.

4 Aw Sithaw, pahlongkung, kaicae hae angthasak let ah loe, kaicae khaeah palung na phuihaih to diipsak ah.

Restore us, O God of our salvation, and put away Your displeasure toward us.

5 Kaicae nuiah palung na phui poe han vop maw? Na caanawk ih adung khoek to palungphuihaih na suek poe han vop maw?

Will You be angry with us forever? Will You draw out Your anger to all generations?

6 Nangmah rang hoiah nangmah ih kaminawk mah anghoehaih hak o thai let hanah, kaicae hae nang talawk let mak ai boeh maw?

Will You not revive us again, that Your people may rejoice in You?

7 Aw Angraeng, na palungnathaih kaicae khaeah amtuengsak ah loe, na pahlonghaih to na paek ah.

Show us Your loving devotion, O LORD, and grant us Your salvation.

8 Angraeng Sithaw mah thuih han ih lok to ka tahngaih han; anih loe angmah ih kaminawk hoi angmah ih kaciim kaminawk khaeah lok to thui tih; toe amthuhaih bangah amlaem o let hmah nasoe.

I will listen to what God the LORD will say; for He will surely speak peace to His people and His saints; He will not let them return to folly.

9 Tangtang ni kaicae prae ah lensawkhaih oh thai hanah, a pahlonghaih loe anih zithaih tawn kaminawk taengah oh.

Surely His salvation is near to those who fear Him, that His glory may dwell in our land.

10 Palungnathaih hoi loktang lok to angtongh hoi boeh; toenghaih hoi angdaehhaih loe maeto hoi maeto angmok hoi.

Loving devotion and faithfulness have joined together; righteousness and peace have kissed.

11 Loktang loe long thung hoiah tacawt tahang tih; toenghaih mah van hoiah khen tathuk tih.

Faithfulness sprouts from the earth, and righteousness looks down from heaven.

12 Ue, Angraeng mah kahoih hmuen to paek ueloe, kaicae ih prae mah athaih to tacawtsak tih.

The LORD will indeed provide what is good, and our land will yield its increase.

13 Toenghaih loe anih hmaa ah caeh ueloe, a caehhaih loklam to aicae ih loklam ah na sah pae tih.

Righteousness will go before Him to prepare the way for His steps.
