1 Kathutkung: Panuekhoeh BAWIPA teh pholen awh. Oe ka hringnae BAWIPA hah pholen haw.

Praise ye Jehovah. Praise Jehovah, O my soul.

2 Kai teh, kahring lahun nah BAWIPA ka pholen han. Ka hringyung thung ka Cathut teh la sak hoi ka pholen han.

While I live I will praise Jehovah. I will sing praises to my God while I have any being.

3 Bawinaw hoi na ka rungngang thai hoeh e taminaw hah kâuep awh hanh.

Put not your trust in rulers, nor in the son of man, in whom there is no help.

4 Ahnimae muitha a tâco toteh, talai lah doeh a ban awh. Hatnah hnin vah, ahnimae pouknae pueng teh be a rawk pouh.

His breath goes forth, he returns to his earth. In that very day his thoughts perish.

5 Jakop e Cathut hah na kabawmkung lah kaawm sak e, amae Cathut ka ngaihawi e teh, a yaw ahawi.

Happy is he who has the God of Jacob for his help, whose hope is in Jehovah his God,

6 Hote Cathut ni kalvan, talai, tuipui, hoi hetnaw dawk kaawm e naw pueng hah a sak.

who made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that is in them, who keeps truth forever,

7 Rektap lah kaawmnaw hanelah, lawk a ceng pouh teh, a von kahlamnaw rawca a poe. BAWIPA ni thongkabawtnaw a hlout sak.

who executes justice for the oppressed, who gives food to the hungry. Jehovah releases the prisoners.

8 BAWIPA ni mitdawnnaw mit a hmu sak. BAWIPA ni katabutnaw hah a loungouk sak teh, tamikalannaw hah a lungpataw.

Jehovah opens the eyes of the blind. Jehovah raises up those who are bowed down. Jehovah loves the righteous.

9 BAWIPA ni Jentelnaw hah a khetyawt teh, naranaw hoi lahmainunaw hah a kabawp. Tamikathoutnaw e lamthung teh, a rawk sak.

Jehovah preserves the sojourners. He upholds the fatherless and widow. But the way of the wicked he turns upside down.

10 BAWIPA ni a yungyoe a uk han. Oe Zion na Cathut ni catounnaw totouh a uk han. Hallelujah.

Jehovah will reign forever, thy God, O Zion, to all generations. Praise ye Jehovah.
