3 “Keima kain ah cheponge, keima kicholdo ponge,

I will not go into the tabernacle of my house; I will not go up to the couch of my bed;

4 keiman kamit kicholdo sah ponge ahilou leh kamit imutsah ponge,

I will not give sleep to mine eyes, nor slumber to mine eyelids, nor rest to my temples,

5 Keiman ka Yahweh Pakai dinga inkhat sahna ding mun kamu kahsen, Israel Pathen Elohim a dingin muntheng kamu kahsen!”
