Tingtoeng 126

1 Tangtlaeng laa BOEIPA loh Zion hlangsol te ham mael puei vaengah mang man bangla ka om uh.

A Song of Ascents. When the LORD brought back those that returned to Zion, we were like unto them that dream.

2 Te vaengah mamih ka ah nueihbu neh mamih lai ah tamlung khaw bae. Te dongah namtom taengah, “He he aka saii ham khaw BOEIPA tah khuet pai,” a ti uh.

Then was our mouth filled with laughter, and our tongue with singing; then said they among the nations: 'The LORD hath done great things with these.'

3 Mamih ham aka saii BOEIPA he a khuet dongah kohoe la ng'om uh.

The LORD hath done great things with us; we are rejoiced.

4 BOEIPA aw kaimih thongtla thongla te tuithim kah sokca bangla mael sak lah.

Turn our captivity, O LORD, as the streams in the dry land.

5 Mikphi neh aka tawn rhoek loh tamlung neh a ah uh ni.

They that sow in tears shall reap in joy.

6 Cet rhoe cet tih rhah doeah cangtii rhovoep aka phuei tah a cangpa pawn doela tamlung neh ha mael rhoe ha mael ni.

Though he goeth on his way weeping that beareth the measure of seed, he shall come home with joy, bearing his sheaves.
