< Tingtoeng 123 >
1 Tangtlaeng Laa Vaan ah aka ngol nang taengla ka mik te ka huel.
A SONG OF THE ASCENTS. I have lifted up my eyes to You, O dweller in the heavens.
2 A boei rhoek kut taengkah salpa rhoek kah mik bangla, a boeinu kut taengkah salnu mik bangla mamih n'rhen duela mamih mik he mamih kah Pathen BOEIPA taengah om van ne.
Behold, as eyes of menservants [Are] to the hand of their masters, As eyes of a maidservant [Are] to the hand of her mistress, So [are] our eyes to our God YHWH, Until He favors us.
3 Nueihbu he muep ka cung coeng dongah rhen kaimih he n'rhen lah. BOEIPA aw kaimih he n'rhen lah.
Favor us, O YHWH, favor us, For we have been greatly filled with contempt,
4 Mongkawt kah tamdaengnah, hlangoek kah nueihbu loh kaimih hinglu te muep a cung sak coeng.
Our soul has been greatly filled With the scorning of the easy ones, With the contempt of the arrogant!
