1 Yahweh Pakai, akhang khanga nangmahi kachennao inn nahijenge!
“BOOK IV. A prayer of Moses, the man of God.” LORD! thou hast been our dwelling-place In all generations!
2 Moul le lhang ho pen masang, vannoi le leiset hi natundoh masangin, thiljoue kipat a pat ajo na chen in jong, nang ma Elohim Pathen nahijing e.
Before the mountains were brought forth, Or ever thou hadst formed the earth and the world, Even from everlasting to everlasting thou art God!
3 Nangin mihemhi anahina masa-a kile kitding'in nasollin leivui nalesosah kitjin ahi.
But man thou turnest again to dust, And sayst, “Return, ye children of men!”
4 Nangdin Kum sangkhat jeng jonghi achejing tunikho bangbep ahin, jan phat chomcha tobang bou ahi.
For a thousand years are, in thy sight, As yesterday when it is past, And as a watch in the night.
5 Nangin twisoh bangin neilhohmang jiuvin mang sangin asot jodeh poi. Keihohi hampa jingkah langa hung pahdoh tobang bou kahiuve.
Thou carriest him away as with a flood; He is a dream; In the morning he springeth up like grass,
6 Hichu akhangdoh loijin ahinla nilhah langle agop lhajin athijitai.
Which flourisheth and shooteth up in the morning, And in the evening is cut down, and withered.
7 Keihohi nangma lunghan nan eisumang jitauvin chuleh nalung satnan eikichatsah'un ahi.
For we are consumed by thine anger, And by thy wrath are we destroyed.
8 Nangin kachonsetnao namasangah natahlang jin ahi, aguh a kachonset nauhi nakilandoh sahjin ahi.
Thou settest our iniquities before thee, Our secret sins in the light of thy countenance.
9 Nalungsat na noi a higjing kahinkhou ahin, kakumkhou jong lungsat nan abeiloi jitai.
By reason of thine anger all our days vanish away; We spend our years like a thought.
10 Kei hohi kum 70 hingding bep kahiuvin, kahat tah'uleh kum 80 bep hingding kahiuve, ahinla hiche sunga chun natna le boina bou ahin; amang loiji taovin, chule keiho kaleng mang taove.
The days of our life are threescore years and ten, And, by reason of strength, may be fourscore years: Yet is the pride of them weariness and sorrow; For it vanisheth swiftly, and we fly away.
11 Nalunghanna thahat koiham ahe thei dingah? Naging a nalungsat khohje gelkhoh a koi ham?
Yet who attendeth to the power of thine anger? Who with due reverence regardeth thine indignation?
12 Kachih theina diuvin kahinkhou chomdan hi neihetsah taovin.
Teach us so to number our days, That we may apply our hearts to wisdom!
13 O Yahweh Pakai, kaheng lam uva hung kile kit tan! Itihchan neikho ngai diu hitam?
Desist, O LORD! How long—? Have compassion upon thy servants!
14 Jingkah seh le nalungset longlou chun kalungthim kipasah in, chutile kahinkhou lhumkei a navah choi la kasha jing diu ahi.
Satisfy us speedily with thy mercy, That we may rejoice and be glad all our days!
15 Hesoh genthei kana thoh hou chuga kon in lunglhai na themkhat beh nei peu vin! Kakhoisat nao kumho jong kipana neisoh doh peh un.
Make us glad according to the time in which thou hast afflicted us; According to the years in which we have seen adversity!
16 Nasohte hi nathilbol kidangtah hochu neimusah'un; kachilhah teuvin nathaneina loupitah chu mu uhen.
Let thy deeds be known to thy servants, And thy glory to their children!
17 Chuteng Yahweh Pakai ka Pathen Elohim un namalsom nauchu eimu sah uhen lang katohna jouseuvah lolhinna eipetao hen. Henge, katoh gao neiso peh un.
Let the favor of the LORD our God be upon us, And establish for us the work of our hands; Yea, the work of our hands, establish thou it!
