Tingtoeng 124

1 David kah Tangtlaeng Laa Israel loh, “Mamih ham BOEIPA te om pawt koinih,” ti laeh saeh.

A Song of the Ascents, by David. Save [for] Jehovah — who hath been for us, (Pray, let Israel say),

2 Hlang loh mamih taengah a tlai vaengah mamih ham BOEIPA om pawt koinih;

Save [for] Jehovah — who hath been for us, In the rising up of man against us,

3 Mamih taengah a thintoek neh a sai vaengah mamih he a hingsai n'dolh uh ni.

Then alive they had swallowed us up, In the burning of their anger against us,

4 Tui loh mamih n'yo vetih soklong loh mamih hinglu he a kawt pawn ni.

Then the waters had overflowed us, The stream passed over our soul,

5 Lungpok tui loh mamih kah hinglu a et ni.

Then passed over our soul had the proud waters.

6 Amih no dongah maeh la mamih aka tloeng pawh BOEIPA te a yoethen pai saeh.

Blessed [is] Jehovah who hath not given us, A prey to their teeth.

7 Mamih kah hinglu tah vaa bangla pael neh a hlaeh khui lamloh loeih. Pael te rhek tih mamih n'loeih uh.

Our soul as a bird hath escaped from a snare of fowlers, The snare was broken, and we have escaped.

8 Vaan neh diklai aka saii BOEIPA ming dongah mamih bomkung om.

Our help [is] in the name of Jehovah, Maker of the heavens and earth!
