La Bu 149

1 Yahweh Pakai chu thangvah'un! Yahweh Pakai vahchoina lathah sauvin. Tahsan chate kikhopna ah avahchoila sauvin.

Hallelujah. Sing to the Lord a new song, sound his praise where the faithful are gathered.

2 O Israel nasempa chunga kipah'in, O Jerusalem mipite, na lengpau chungah kipah'un.

Let Israel rejoice in its maker, sons of Zion exult in their king.

3 Khongpi gintoh semjang saito thon lampum pum'in Aminchu vahchoijun,

Let them praise his name in the dance, making music with lyre and with timbrel.

4 Ajeh chu amite chungah akipah'in, mi nun nem te chu jana lallukhuh akhupeh tai.

For the Lord delights in his people, adorning the humble with victory.

5 Elohim Pathen chate chu hitobang jana achanjeh'un, jankhovah'in avahchoila sauhen,

Let the faithful exult and extol him with glad ringing cries all night long.

6 Akhut'in chemjam hemtah kichoiyu henlang, akamsunguuvah kipah tah'in Elohim Pathen thangvah la sauhen.

High praises of God in their mouth, and a two-edged sword in their hand:

7 Chitin namtin ho chunga aphulah theina diuleh, namtin chunga engbolna apehtheina diuvin,

on the heathen to execute vengeance, and chastisement sore on the nations,

8 alengteu thihkhao kola akihen'uva, chuleh alamkaiteu thihkhaova akikan theina diuvin,

binding their kings with chains, and their nobles with fetters of iron,

9 achunguva thu kitanna dungjuija akitohdohna dingin. Hichehi Elohim Pathen chate chan loupitah achannao chu ahi. Yahweh Pakai chu thangvah'in umhen!

to execute on them the doom that is written. This is the glory of all his faithful. Hallelujah.
