La Bu 61

1 O Elohim Pathen ka kana neingaipeh in! Ka taona hi ngai in!

For the leader. On stringed instruments. Of David. Hear my cry, O God, be attentive to my prayer.

2 Lungsung lunghemnan eilonkhum teng leiset kol kimvel a kon'in panpi ngaichan ka hin kou e. Hoidoh na songpi sang chung'ah neipuitou in,

From the ends of the earth I call unto you, when my heart is faint: lead me to the rock that is high above me.

3 ajeh chu nangma hi ka kiselna mun olna pen chu na hi, ka melmate'n ahin phahjoulouna kulpi chu nangma na hi.

For you are a refuge to me, a strong tower in face of the foe.

4 Na mun theng'a tonsot'in neichensah in hilai chu na lha limnoi kiselna chu ahi.

O to be guest in your tent forever, hiding beneath your sheltering wings! (Selah)

5 O Elohim Pathen ka kitepna chu nei jahpehtai, nangma gingte chan dia na gonpeh na goulona mun chu neipeh ahitai.

For you, O God, do hear my vows, and grant the desires of those who fear you.

6 Lengpa hinkho hi kum tamtah pehben! Khangkit geiin jong hinghoi in!

Add many days to the life of the king; may his years endure throughout all generations.

7 Elohim Pathen hoidam na achun vai hom jing hen. Na mi ngailutna longlou le na kitahna chun kaihoi jing hen.

In the presence of God be he throned forever; may kindness and faithfulness watch over him.

8 Hiteng chuleh nitina ka kitepna suh bulhit ingkating tonsot'in na min thangvah jing tang e.

And I will sing praise to your name forever, paying my vows day after day.
