< Sam 126 >
1 kathutkung: panuekhoeh A man awh teh a hrawi awh e Zioncanaw hah BAWIPA ni bout a ban sak toteh, kai teh mang ka mang e patetlah ka o.
A Song of Degrees. When the Lord turned the captivity of Sion, we became as comforted ones.
2 Hat toteh, kaimae pahni teh panuinae hoi thoseh, kaimae lai teh, la saknae hoi thoseh a kawi han. Ayânaw niteh, BAWIPA ni ahnimouh hanelah hno kalen a sak pouh toe, telah miphunnaw rahak vah a dei awh.
Then was our mouth filled with joy, and our tongue with exultation: then would they say among the Gentiles,
3 BAWIPA ni kaimouh hanlah hno kalen a sak toe. Kaimouh teh ka lunghawi awh.
The Lord has done great things among them. The Lord has done great things for us, we became joyful.
4 Oe BAWIPA, a man awh teh, a hrawi awh e kaimanaw hah, Negeb e palangtui patetlah bout tho sak haw.
Turn, O Lord, our captivity, as the steams in the south.
5 Mitphi tui hoi cati katunaw ni lunghawi la sak laihoi a a awh han.
They that sow in tears shall reap in joy.
6 Cati ka phawt niteh, tha thout laipalah, khuika laihoi ka tâcawt e tami teh, cabongnaw hrawm vaiteh, lunghawi la sak laihoi bout a ban katang han.
They went on and wept as they cast their seeds; but they shall surely come with exultation, bringing their sheaves [with them].
