< Sam 122 >
1 Kathutkung: Devit BAWIPA e im dawk cet awh sei telah, kai koe ati awh navah, ka lunghawi.
[A Song of Ascents. By David.] I was glad when they said to me, "Let's go to the LORD's house."
2 Oe Jerusalem, kaimae khok teh, nange takhang thungvah a kangdue han.
Our feet are standing within your gates, Jerusalem;
3 Jerusalem teh kacakpounglah sak e lah ao.
Jerusalem, that is built as a city that is joined together;
4 BAWIPA e miphunnaw teh hote kho dawk a cei awh katang. Isarelnaw e phung patetlah BAWIPA e a miphunnaw teh BAWIPA min pholen hanelah, BAWIPA min pholen nahanelah a ceitakhang awh.
where the tribes go up, even the tribes of the LORD, according to an ordinance for Israel, to give thanks to the name of the LORD.
5 Bangkongtetpawiteh, hote hmuen koevah, bawitungkhungnaw, Devit imthung bawitungkhungnaw lawkceng nahanelah a hruek awh.
For there are set thrones for judgment, the thrones of David's house.
6 Jerusalem a roum nahanlah ratoum awh. Nang lungpataw naw teh a hmacawn awh naseh.
Pray for the peace of Jerusalem. Those who love you will prosper.
7 Nange rapannaw roumnae awmseh. Na impui hawinae coe awh naseh.
Peace be within your walls, and prosperity within your palaces.
8 Ka hmaunawngha han hoi ka huikonaw hanelah, nang dawk roumnae awm seh telah ka dei han.
For my brothers' and companions' sakes, I will now say, "Peace be within you."
9 Maimae BAWIPA Cathut im hane dawkvah, nange hawinae hah ka tawng han.
For the sake of the house of the LORD our God, I will seek your good.
