Tingtoeng 125

1 Tangtlaeng Laa BOEIPA dongah aka pangtung rhoek tah Zion tlang bangla, kumhal ah tuen pawt tih ngol.

A Song of Ascents. Those who trust in Yahweh are as Mount Zion, which can’t be moved, but remains forever.

2 Jerusalem kaepvai kah tlang rhoek tah amah ham coeng ni. Te dongah BOEIPA tah a pilnam a kaepvai ah, tahae lamkah neh kumhal duela om.

As the mountains surround Jerusalem, so Yahweh surrounds his people from this time forward and forever more.

3 Halangnah mancai loh aka dueng rhoek kah hmulung te naan boel saeh. Te daengah ni aka dueng loh a kut te dumlai la a hlah pawt eh.

For the scepter of wickedness won’t remain over the allotment of the righteous, so that the righteous won’t use their hands to do evil.

4 BOEIPA aw aka then taeng neh, a lungbuei ah aka thuem taengah tah hlampan pah.

Do good, Yahweh, to those who are good, to those who are upright in their hearts.

5 Tedae BOEIPA aw, amih a kael la aka mael rhoek neh boethae aka saii te a tueih ni. Israel soah rhoepnah om saeh.

But as for those who turn away to their crooked ways, Yahweh will lead them away with the workers of iniquity. Peace be on Israel.
