Tingtoeng 128

1 Tangtlaeng Laa BOEIPA aka rhih tih a longpuei ah aka pongpa boeih tah a yoethen.

“A song of the degrees.” Happy is every one that feareth the Lord, that walketh in his ways.

2 Na kut dongkah thatloh vanbangla na yoethen na caak van vetih na taengkah hnothen om ni.

When thou eatest the labor of thy hands: [then] wilt thou be happy, and it shall be well with thee.

3 Na yuu khaw misur bangla na im a imthael ah thaihsu vetih na ca rhoek te olive thingnoe bangla na caboei kong ah om uh ni.

Thy wife is [then] as a fruitful vine in the recesses of thy house: thy children, like olive-plants round about thy table.

4 Te dongah BOEIPA aka rhih hlang tah a yoethen pai he.

Behold, truly thus shall be blessed the man that feareth the Lord.

5 Zion lamkah BOEIPA loh nang yoethen m'pae saeh lamtah na hingnah khohnin takuem ah Jerusalem kah a thennah te hmuh van.

May the Lord bless thee out of Zion: and see thou the happiness of Jerusalem all the days of thy life.

6 Na ca rhoek kah a ca rhoek khaw hmu van. Israel soah rhoepnah om saeh.

And see thou thy children's children: may there be peace upon Israel.
