Thine are the heavens, and thine is the earth: the world and the fulness thereof thou hast founded:

The north and the sea thou hast created. Thabor and Hermon shall rejoice in thy name:

Thy arm is with might. Let thy hand be strengthened, and thy right hand exalted:
14 Dyngnaak ingkaw thymnaak ce na ngawihdoelh ang dyih hunna awm nawh; lungnaak ingkaw ypawmnaak ce na haiawh cet hy.
Justice and judgment are the preparation of thy throne. Mercy and truth shall go before thy face:

Then thou spokest in a vision to thy saints, and saidst: I have laid help upon one that is mighty, and have exalted one chosen out of my people.

I will keep my mercy for him for ever: and my covenant faithful to him.
29 Anih a cahlah qui ce kumqui dyna cak pe sak kawng nyng saw, khan a awm khui a ngawihdoelh ce cak pe sak kawng.
And I will make his seed to endure for evermore: and his throne as the days of heaven.

And if his children forsake my law, and walk not in my judgments:
31 Ka awi tloepnaakkhqi ve eek unawh kak awipeekkhqi ve a mami khoem awhtaw,
If they profane my justices: and keep not my commandments:
32 Thingboeng ing a thawlhnaakkhqi ce toel kawng nyng, a sai thawlhnaakkhqi ce qawkkek ing toel kawng;
I will visit their iniquities with a rod: and their sins with stripes.

Neither will I profane my covenant: and the words that proceed from my mouth I will not make void.
35 Ka ciimnaak ing hypboet ak khoek na awi kam hawh nyng – David a venawh qai ap kqawn ti kawng nyng.
Once have I sworn by my holiness: I will not lie unto David:

His seed shall endure for ever.
37 Khanhi awh ypawm na ak awm pihla amyihna anih ce caksak loet kawng nyng.”
And his throne as the sun before me: and as the moon perfect for ever, and a faithful witness in heaven.

Thou hast shortened the days of his time: thou hast covered him with confusion.

How long, O Lord, turnest thou away unto the end? shall thy anger burn like fire?

Remember what my substance is for hast thou made all the children of men in vain?

Lord, where are thy ancient mercies, according to what thou didst swear to David in thy truth?
50 Bawipa, na tyihzawih qaibu na a awm ce sim poe nawhtaw, pilnam thlangkhqi a thekhanaak awikhqi ikawmyih dyna kak kawlung ing ang yh tice sim law lah.
Be mindful, O Lord, of the reproach of thy servants (which I have held in my bosom) of many nations:
51 Aw Bawipa, na qaalkhqi ing thekhanaak ingkaw qaihbu na ami ni sai ve, ve ing nang ing na caksak thlang ce a khaw kan boeih awh qaihbu na sai uhy.
Wherewith thy enemies have reproached, O Lord; wherewith they have reproached the change of thy anointed.
52 Bawipa venawh thangleek naak kumqui dyna awm seh nyng! Amen coeng awh Amen.
Blessed be the Lord for evermore. So be it. So be it.
