1 Tangtlaeng laa Kai bomkung me lamkah nim ha pawk ve? tila tlang taengah ka mik ka huel.

A Song of the Ascents. I lift up mine eyes unto the hills, Whence doth my help come?

2 Kai aka bomkung tah vaan neh diklai aka saii BOEIPA taeng lamkah ni.

My help [is] from Jehovah, maker of heaven and earth,

3 Na kho te paloe ham khueh pawt vetih nang aka dawn te a mikku mahpawh.

He suffereth not thy foot to be moved, Thy preserver slumbereth not.

4 Israel aka dawn loh tarha a mikku pawt vetih ip mahpawh.

Lo, He slumbereth not, nor sleepeth, He who is preserving Israel.

5 BOEIPA loh nang n'ngaithuen tih BOEIPA tah na bantang kut ah na hlipkhup la om.

Jehovah [is] thy preserver, Jehovah [is] thy shade on thy right hand,

6 Khothaih ah khomik loh, khoyin kah hla long khaw nang n'ngawn mahpawh.

By day the sun doth not smite thee, Nor the moon by night.

7 BOEIPA loh nang te yoethae cungkuem lamloh n'khoembael vetih na hinglu te a ngaithuen ni.

Jehovah preserveth thee from all evil, He doth preserve thy soul.

8 Na cet tih na pawk due, tahae lamloh kumhal duela BOEIPA loh n'ngaithuen ni.

Jehovah preserveth thy going out and thy coming in, From henceforth even unto the age!
