The joy of our heart is ceased; our dance is turned into mourning.

The crown is fallen from our head: woe unto us, that we have sinned!

Because of the mountain of Zion, which is desolate, the foxes walk upon it.

You, O LORD, remain for ever; your throne from generation to generation.
20 Bangkongmaw kaimanaw hah pou na pahnim vaw. Bangkongmaw atueng moikasawlah na pahnawt vaw.
Wherefore do you forget us for ever, and forsake us so long time?
21 Oe BAWIPA kaimouh teh nama koe bout na bankhai haw. Telah pawiteh, kaimouh teh bout ka tho awh han. Yampa e patetlah kaimae a hninnaw teh a katha lah na pathoup haw.
Turn you us unto you, O LORD, and we shall be turned; renew our days as of old.
22 Hoehpawiteh, nama ni kaimanaw hah na pahnawt han na maw. Kaimanaw hah puenghoi na lungkhueksin han na maw.
But you have utterly rejected us; you are very angry against us.
