La Bu 124

1 Yahweh Pakai hi eiho langa anapanglou hikhataleh? Israelte jousen velseikit hen.

A Song of Ascents; of David. 'If it had not been the LORD who was for us', let Israel now say;

2 Min eina delkhum pettah'un Yahweh Pakai hi eiho langa anapanglou hikhataleh,

'If it had not been the LORD who was for us, when men rose up against us,

3 amahon alunghan u deojah pum in ahingin eina vallhum tauvinte.

Then they had swallowed us up alive, when their wrath was kindled against us;

4 Twi chun einachup uvintin, twikhanglen chun einalhohmang diu ahitai.

Then the waters had overwhelmed us, the stream had gone over our soul;

5 Hitiachu ichunguva twipi kitoltol ding ahiuve.

Then the proud waters had gone over our soul.'

6 Igalmiteu einasuhmang sah louva Yahweh Pakai chu thangvahna peuhite.

Blessed be the LORD, who hath not given us as a prey to their teeth.

7 Eiho thang kampa a kon a vacha ahoidoh banga hoidoh ihiuve. Thangpou chu akivobong tan eiho ihoidoh tauve.

Our soul is escaped as a bird out of the snare of the fowlers; the snare is broken, and we are escaped.

8 Hitobanga kithopina chu vanle lei sem ah Yahweh Pakai a kon a imu'u ahi.

Our help is in the name of the LORD, who made heaven and earth.
