< Sam 121 >
1 Kathutkung: Panuekhoeh, tami tangawn ni Hezekiah a ti awh Kabawpnae teh nâhoi maw a tho han ka titeh, monnaw koelah ka khet.
I have lifted up my eyes to the mountains, from whence help shall come to me.
2 Kalvan hoi talai kasakkung BAWIPA koehoi doeh a tho.
My help is from the Lord, who made heaven and earth.
3 Bawipa ni na khok tâlaw sak hoeh. Nang khenyawnkung teh ngâm boihoeh.
May he not suffer thy foot to be moved: neither let him slumber that keepeth thee.
4 Atangcalah Isarelnaw khenyawnkung Ahni teh ngâm boihoeh, ip hai ip boihoeh.
Behold he shall neither slumber nor sleep, that keepeth Israel.
5 BAWIPA ni nang teh, na khetyawt. BAWIPA teh, aranglae tâhlip, na kângue e doeh.
The Lord is thy keeper, the Lord is thy protection upon thy right hand.
6 Khodai vah kanî, karum vah thapa ni runae na poe mahoeh.
The sun shall not burn thee by day: nor the moon by night.
7 BAWIPA ni runae pueng thung hoi na khetyawt han, na hringnae hai a khetyawt han.
The Lord keepeth thee from all evil: may the Lord keep thy soul.
8 BAWIPA ni, na ceinae, na thonae pueng hah atuhoi pout laipalah, a khetyawt han.
May the Lord keep thy going in and thy going out; from henceforth now and for ever.
