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 again the captivity of Zion, we were like them that dream.

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 laughter, and our tongue with singing: then said they among the heathen, The LORD hath done great things for them.

3 BAWIPA ni kaimouh hanlah hno kalen a sak toe. Kaimouh teh ka lunghawi awh.

The LORD hath done great things for us; [of which] we are glad.

4 Oe BAWIPA, a man awh teh, a hrawi awh e kaimanaw hah, Negeb e palangtui patetlah bout tho sak haw.

Turn again our captivity, O LORD, as the streams 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.

He that goeth forth and weepeth, bearing precious seed, shall doubtless return with rejoicing, bringing his sheaves [with him].
