1 Tangtlaeng Laa Kamah kah citcai khuiah BOEIPA te ka khue tih kai n'doo.

In my distress, I cried to Adonai. He answered me.

2 BOEIPA aw ka hinglu he laithae hmuilai lamkah neh palyal ol lamloh huul lah.

Deliver my soul, Adonai, from lying lips, from a deceitful tongue.

3 Palyal ol te nang taengah bahamnim m'paek vetih bahamnim nang taengah hang koei eh?

What will be given to you, and what will be done more to you, you deceitful tongue?

4 Hlangrhalh kah thaltang khaw hlingcet alh bangla sum yipkip.

Sharp arrows of the mighty, with coals of juniper.

5 Meshek ah ka bakuep tih Kedar dap ah kho ka sak dongah kai ngawn tah ka tuisawih coeng!

Woe is me, that I live in Meshech, that I dwell among the tents of Kedar!

6 Rhoepnah aka hmuhuet taengah ka hinglu loh kho puet a sak coeng.

My soul has had her dwelling too long with him who hates peace.

7 Kai loh rhoepnah ka thui vaengah amih te caemtloek la thoouh.

I am for peace, but when I speak, they are for war.
