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 Yahweh brought back the captives of Zion, we were like them who 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 a shout of triumph, —Then, said they among the nations, Yahweh, hath done great things, with these!

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

Yahweh, hath done great things with us, we are full of joy!

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

Bring thou back, O Yahweh, our captives, like channels in the South.

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

They who are sowing with tears, with shouting, shall reap:

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

He that, doth indeed go forth, and weep, bearing seed enough to trail along, doth, surely come in, with shouting, bringing his sheaves.
