< Tingtoeng 84 >
1 Aka mawt ham Korah Koca rhoek kah Gittith Rhotoeng Tingtoenglung Caempuei BOEIPA namah kah tolhmuen tah, lungnah kap tloe pai o!
For the Leader; upon the Gittith. A Psalm of the sons of Korah. How lovely are Thy tabernacles, O LORD of hosts!
2 BOEIPA kah vongup te ka hinglu loh a ngaidam tih thana sut. Ka lungbuei neh ka pumsa loh aka hing Pathen te a tamhoe thil.
My soul yearneth, yea, even pineth for the courts of the LORD; my heart and my flesh sing for joy unto the living God.
3 Ka manghai neh ka Pathen, caempuei BOEIPA mamah kah hmueihtuk taengah vaa long pataeng im a hmuh tih pumpil loh amah vapuel ham bu a khueh pah.
Yea, the sparrow hath found a house, and the swallow a nest for herself, where she may lay her young; Thine altars, O LORD of hosts, my King, and my God —.
4 Nang im kah kho aka sa rhoek a yoethen pai tih, namah te rhawp n'thangthen uh. (Selah)
Happy are they that dwell in Thy house, they are ever praising Thee. (Selah)
5 Nang dongah a sarhi aka khueh tih, a thinko ah longpuei aka khui hlang tah a yoethen.
Happy is the man whose strength is in Thee; in whose heart are the highways.
6 Baca kol ah aka pongpa loh tuisih a khueh tih, lobah yoethennah khaw a buem.
Passing through the valley of Baca they make it a place of springs; yea, the early rain clotheth it with blessings.
7 Tha dueng khui lamkah thadueng neh cet uh. Zion kah Pathen hmaiah phoe.
They go from strength to strength, every one of them appeareth before God in Zion.
8 Ka thangthuinah he caempuei Pathen BOEIPA loh ya saeh lamtah, Jakob Pathen loh hnatun saeh. (Selah)
O LORD God of hosts, hear my prayer; give ear, O God of Jacob. (Selah)
9 Pathen aw kaimih kah photling he hmu lamtah na koelh hlang kah maelhmai khaw paelki lah.
Behold, O God our shield, and look upon the face of Thine anointed.
10 Na vongup khuikah hnin at he khohnin thawngkhat lakah then. Ka Pathen im kah thohka tawt he, halangnah dap kah om lakah ka ngaih.
For a day in Thy courts is better than a thousand; I had rather stand at the threshold of the house of my God, than to dwell in the tents of wickedness.
11 BOEIPA Pathen tah khomik neh photling la om. Mikdaithen neh thangpomnah he khaw BOEIPA loh a paek. Cuemthuek dongah aka pongpa taengah hnothen a hloh pah moenih.
For the LORD God is a sun and a shield; the LORD giveth grace and glory; no good thing will He withhold from them that walk uprightly.
12 Caempuei BOEIPA namah dongah, aka pangtung hlang tah a yoethen pai.
O LORD of hosts, happy is the man that trusteth in Thee.
