< La Bu 4 >
1 Kakou teng neidon but'in, them eichan sah a O Yahweh Pakai; ka lhahsam nikho teng jong le nangman lunglet neipe ji; neikhoton lang kataona neingai peh tei in.
Answer me when I call, O God of my righteousness. Thou have enlarged me in distress. Have mercy upon me, and hear my prayer.
2 Vo mihem chapate, nanghohin itihchanpi neisuh jum diu hitam? Itihchan ajehbei a nei thepmosah uva, itihchan pihi jouthu nachepi diu hitam?
O ye sons of men, how long shall my glory be turned into dishonor? Will ye love vanity, and seek after falsehood? (Selah)
3 Ahin nanghon heuvin, Yahweh Pakai in ama gingho Ama ding'in atum'in alhengdoh'e. Yahweh Pakai kakou tengleh Aman ei-donbut teijin ahi.
But know that Jehovah has set apart for himself him who is holy. Jehovah will hear when I call to him.
4 Ki sonlelnan kithing pumin umun, ahin chonset boldaovin; hichu nalupnao muna jong nalungthimu toh gelkhom jinguvin lang umdet jingun.
Stand in awe, and sin not. Commune with your own heart upon your bed, and be still. (Selah)

Offer the sacrifices of righteousness, and put your trust in Jehovah.
6 Hiho sanga phajo eimusah thei diu koi ham? tin mitamtah'in seiunte, Yahweh Pakai namaivah achun keiho neihinsu emsel un.
Many there are who say, Who will show us good? Jehovah, lift thou up the light of thy countenance upon us.
7 Nangman lengpitwi leh changle mim nengchat'a kilamdoh ho kipani sangin, kalungthim nakipasah tai.
Thou have put gladness in my heart more than when their grain and their new wine are increased.
8 Keima Nanga dia lungmonga kalup a ka-ihmut ding ahi, Yahweh Pakai nei hoidoh inlang neivengtup in.
In peace I will both lie down and sleep, for thou, Jehovah, alone make me dwell in safety.
