Sam 125

1 Kathutkung: Panuekhoeh, tami tangawn ni Hezekiah a ti awh BAWIPA ka kâuep e naw teh, kâhuen hoeh niteh, a yungyoe kangning e Zion mon patetlah ao han.

Those who trust in Adonai are as Mount Zion [Mountain ridge, Marking], which can’t be moved, but remains forever.

2 Monnaw ni Jerusalem a kalup e patetlah, BAWIPA ni a miphunnaw hah atuhoi pout laipalah a kalup.

As the mountains surround Jerusalem [City of peace], so Adonai surrounds his people from this time forward and forever more.

3 Tami kalannaw ni amamae kut hoi, kahawihoehe hno a sak awh hoeh nahanelah, tamikaponaw e sonron teh, tami kalannaw e râw talai dawk awm hanh naseh.

For the scepter of ethical wickedness won’t remain over the allotment of the upright; so that the upright won’t use their hands to do evil.

4 Oe BAWIPA, tami kahawinaw hoi tami kalannaw koe hawinae sak haw.

Do good, Adonai, to those who are good, to those who are upright in their hearts.

5 Amamae dumyennae lam dawk ka cet e naw hateh, yonnae ka sak e naw hoi cungtalah, BAWIPA ni a pâlei han. Isarelnaw koe roumnae awm lawiseh.

But as for those who turn aside to their crooked ways, Adonai will lead them away with the workers of vain striving of iniquity. Peace be on Israel [God prevails].
