12 Kaimih kah boekoek he na hmaiah pung tih kaimih kah tholhnah tah kamamih taengah phoe coeng. Mamih kah boekoek he mamih taengah om tih mamih kathaesainah te khaw m'ming uh.
For they are many transgressions our before you and sins our it has testified against us that transgressions our [are] with us and iniquities our we know them.
13 BOEIPA taengah boekoek neh basa tih mamih kah Pathen hnuk lamloh balkhong coeng. Hnaemtaeknah neh a cal phoeiah koeknah la vawn tih a lungbuei lamkah a honghi ol te a thuep.
We have transgressed and we have denied Yahweh and we have turned back from after God our we have spoken oppression and rebellion we have conceived and we have uttered from [the] heart words of falsehood.
