2 Aman Jerusalem khopi hi Israel khopi dangho sangin angailu joi.

The Lord loves the gates of Sion, more than all the tabernacles of Jacob.

3 O Elohim Pathen khopi, nangma chungchang ahi itibang thuloupi tahtah kisei a hitam!

Glorious things have been spoken of thee, O city of God. (Pause)

4 Keima eiheho lah'a hin, Egypt le Babylon chule Philistine leh Tyre chuleh gamlha tah Ethiopia jong kasimtha e. Amaho hi Jerusalem khomite ahitaove.

I will make mention of Raab and Babylon to them that know me: behold also the Philistines, and Tyre, and the people of the Ethiopians: these were born there.

5 Jerusalem chungchang a hitiahi kisei ding ahi, “amijousen nammi hina a thaneina chu akipapi cheh uve”, chule hatchungnung ama tah in khopi chu phatthei aboh ding ahi.

A man shall say, Sion [is my] mother; and [such] a man was born in her; and the Highest himself has founded her.

6 Yahweh Pakai in chitin namtin hi ajihlut teng, aseiding, “amaho jouse hi Jerusalem khomite ahitaove” atiding ahi.

The Lord shall recount [it] in the writing of the people, and of these princes that were born in her.

7 Mipi hochun theile amut'uva la asahdiu, “Kahinkho hung kipat nahi Jerusalem ahi” atidiu ahi.

The dwelling of all within thee is [as the dwelling] of those that rejoice.
