La Bu 124

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

“A psalm of the steps, or the goings up. By David.” If the LORD had not been for us, Now may Israel say,

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

If the LORD had not been for us, When men rose up against us,

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

Then had they swallowed us up alive, When their wrath burned 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.

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 a prey to their teeth!

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

We have escaped like a bird from the snare of the fowler; The snare is broken, and we have 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.
