Sam 146

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

Praise the LORD! Praise the LORD, 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 the LORD. I will sing praises to my God as long as I exist.

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

Do not put your trust in princes, in a 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 spirit departs, and he returns to the 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 the LORD, 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. The LORD frees the prisoners.

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

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

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

The LORD preserves the foreigners. He upholds the fatherless and widow, but he turns the way of the wicked upside down.

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

The LORD will reign forever; your God, O Zion, to all generations. Praise the LORD!
