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 leader. Of the Korahites, a psalm. Once, Lord, you did favour your land, granting change of fortune to Jacob,
2 Nangmah ih kaminawk sakpazaehaih to na tahmen moe, nihcae zaehaih to na khuk pae. (Selah)
forgiving the guilt of your people, pardoning all their sin, (Selah)
3 Palung na phuihaihnawk to na takhoe boih; thacak palung na phuihaih to nang qoi taak.
withdrawing all your fury, turning from your hot anger.
4 Aw Sithaw, pahlongkung, kaicae hae angthasak let ah loe, kaicae khaeah palung na phuihaih to diipsak ah.
Restore us, O God our saviour, put away your displeasure against 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 cherish your anger against us forever, prolonging your wrath 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 be glad in you?
7 Aw Angraeng, na palungnathaih kaicae khaeah amtuengsak ah loe, na pahlonghaih to na paek ah.
Show us your kindness, O Lord, 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.
Let me hear what God the Lord will speak; for he will speak of peace to his people, to those who love him, and turn their hearts to him.
9 Tangtang ni kaicae prae ah lensawkhaih oh thai hanah, a pahlonghaih loe anih zithaih tawn kaminawk taengah oh.
Soon those who fear him shall see how he saves, and glory shall live in our land.
10 Palungnathaih hoi loktang lok to angtongh hoi boeh; toenghaih hoi angdaehhaih loe maeto hoi maeto angmok hoi.
Kindness and loyalty meet; peace and righteousness kiss.
11 Loktang loe long thung hoiah tacawt tahang tih; toenghaih mah van hoiah khen tathuk tih.
Loyalty springs from the earth; righteousness looks from the sky.
12 Ue, Angraeng mah kahoih hmuen to paek ueloe, kaicae ih prae mah athaih to tacawtsak tih.
The Lord shall give all that is good, our land yielding its increase,
13 Toenghaih loe anih hmaa ah caeh ueloe, a caehhaih loklam to aicae ih loklam ah na sah pae tih.
righteousness marching before him, and peace on the path he treads.
