Tingtoeng 115
1 BOEIPA aw kaimih ham moenih. Kaimih ham pawt dae namah ming ham mah na sitlohnah, na uepomnah rhang neh thangpomnah te pae lah.
Not to us, LORD, not to us, but to your name give glory, for your loving kindness, and for your truth’s sake.
2 Ba dongah lae namtom rhoek loh, “A Pathen khaw melae me?” a ti uh.
Why should the nations say, “Where is their God, now?”
3 Tedae kaimih kah Pathen tah vaan ah om tih, amah loh a ngaih te boeih a saii.
But our God is in the heavens. He does whatever he pleases.
4 Amih kah muei rhoek ngawntah cak neh sui neh hlang kut long ni a bi.
Their idols are silver and gold, the work of men’s hands.
5 Amih te a ka om dae cal uh thai pawh. A mik te om dae hmuh uh thai pawh.
They have mouths, but they don’t speak. They have eyes, but they don’t see.
6 A hna te om dae ya uh pawh. A hnarhong te om dae him uh thai pawh.
They have ears, but they don’t hear. They have noses, but they don’t smell.
7 A kut om dae yam thai pawh. A kho om dae cet uh thai pawh. A olrhong neh cai uh thai pawh.
They have hands, but they don’t feel. They have feet, but they don’t walk, neither do they speak through their throat.
8 Amih aka saii tih amih dongah aka pangtung rhoek boeih khaw amih bangla pawtlawt om uh.
Those who make them will be like them; yes, everyone who trusts in them.

You who fear the LORD, trust in the LORD! He is their help and their shield.
12 BOEIPA loh mamih he n'ngaidam. Israel imkhui he yoethen a paek a paek vetih Aaron imkhui khaw yoethen a paek ni.
The LORD remembers us. He will bless us. He will bless the house of Israel. He will bless the house of Aaron.

He will bless those who fear the LORD, both small and great.

Blessed are you by the LORD, who made heaven and earth.
16 Vaan vaan rhoek BOEIPA hut dae diklai he hlanghing koca taengah a paek.
The heavens are the LORD’s heavens, but he has given the earth to the children of men.

The dead don’t praise the LORD, nor any who go down into silence,
18 Tedae mamih loh tahae lamkah kumhal due khaw BOEIPA uem uh sih. BOEIPA thangthen uh.
but we will bless the LORD, from this time forward and forever more. Praise the LORD!
