Sam 149

1 Kathutkung: Panuekhoeh BAWIPA teh pholen awh. BAWIPA koe la katha hah sak awh haw. Tami kathoungnaw kamkhuengnae koe a pahrennae hah pholen awh.

Praise ye Jah! Sing ye to Jehovah a new song, His praise in an assembly of saints.

2 Isarelnaw ni amamouh kasakkung koe lunghawi naseh. Zion canunaw ni amamae siangpahrang koe konawm naseh.

Israel doth rejoice in his Maker, Sons of Zion do joy in their king.

3 Ahnimouh ni lamtu laihoi Bawipa min teh pholen awh naseh. Tâbaw khawng laihoi, ratoung kueng laihoi, pholen hoi la sak awh naseh.

They praise His name in a dance, With timbrel and harp sing praise to Him.

4 Bangkongtetpawiteh, BAWIPA ni amae taminaw dawk a lungyouk. A ma ni kârahnoum e naw hah rungngangnae hoi a kamcu sak.

For Jehovah is pleased with His people, He beautifieth the humble with salvation.

5 Tami kathoungnaw ni a bawilennae dawkvah, lunghawi awh naseh. Amamae ikhun dawk lunghawi laihoi la sak awh naseh.

Exult do saints in honour, They sing aloud on their beds.

6 Ahnimae pahni dawk karasangpoung lah Cathut pholennae awm naseh. Ahnimae kut dawk hai, avoivang kahran e tahloi patuem awh naseh.

The exaltation of God [is] in their throat, And a two-edged sword in their hand.

7 Ahnimouh ni khoramnaw moipathung hane hoi taminaw reknae thoseh,

To do vengeance among nations, Punishments among the peoples.

8 ahnimae siangpahrangnaw hai sumrui hoi pâkhi vaiteh, ahnimouh thung dawk e bari kaawm e taminaw hah khok dawk hlong buet hoi pâkhi hane thoseh,

To bind their kings with chains, And their honoured ones with fetters of iron,

9 thut e lawkcengnae hah, ahnimouh koe pha sak nahane doeh. Hethateh, tami kathoungnaw pueng koe kaawm hane barinae doeh. Hallelujah.

To do among them the judgment written, An honour it [is] for all his saints. Praise ye Jah!
