Sing to the glory of his name! Offer glory and praise!
3 Cathut koe, na sak e heh banghloi kângai lah a ru. Kângairu na sak e dawkvah, na tarannaw hah nang koe a poe han.
Tell God, “How awesome are your deeds! Through the greatness of your power, your enemies submit themselves to you.

All the earth will worship you, and will sing to you; they will sing to your name.” (Selah)
5 Tho awh nateh Cathut ni sak e naw hah khenhaw. Tami capanaw hanelah, a sak e naw hah kângairu hanelah ao.
Come, and see God’s deeds— awesome work on behalf of the children of men.
6 Ama ni talîpui hah talai kaphui lah a coung sak teh, talîpui dawk khok hoi a cei awh. Hawvah ama dawk a konawm awh.
He turned the sea into dry land. They went through the river on foot. There, we rejoiced in him.
7 A thaonae hoi pou a uk, A mit hoi miphun pueng hah a khet. Tarankathawnaw teh kâphokâlen awh hanh naseh. (Selah)
He rules by his might forever. His eyes watch the nations. Don’t let the rebellious rise up against him. (Selah)
8 Oe tamimaya, maimae Cathut teh pholen awh haw. Pholennae lawk heh thai kamcu lah sak awh.
Praise our God, you peoples! Make the sound of his praise heard,
9 Kahringnaw koe maimouh hringnae hah a kuet teh, maimouh kamthui hane hai na pasoung hoeh.
who preserves our life amongst the living, and doesn’t allow our feet to be moved.
10 Bangkongtetpawiteh, Oe Cathut, nang ni na tanouk teh, ngun tanouk e patetlah na tanouk.
For you, God, have tested us. You have refined us, as silver is refined.
11 Tamlawk hoi na man teh, kaimae loung dawk hnori hah na patue.
You brought us into prison. You laid a burden on our backs.
12 Kaimae lû dawk tami na kâcui sak teh, hmai hoi tuikalen hah na raka. Hatei, kakuep e tawntanae hmuen koe na hrawi.
You allowed men to ride over our heads. We went through fire and through water, but you brought us to the place of abundance.
13 Hmaisawi thuengnae hoi kathâw e saring hoi hmuitui tuca hoi na im dawk a kâen han.
I will come into your temple with burnt offerings. I will pay my vows to you,
14 Hat hateh, runae ka kâhmo navah, ka pahni hoi ka dei e patetlah ka pâpho tangcoung e doeh.
which my lips promised, and my mouth spoke, when I was in distress.
15 Hmaisawi thuengnae dawkvah, kathâw e saring hoi hmuitui tuca hoi ka poe vaiteh, maitotan hah hmae hoi ka poe han. (Selah)
I will offer to you burnt offerings of fat animals, with the offering of rams, I will offer bulls with goats. (Selah)
16 Cathut ka taket e pueng, tho awh nateh thai awh haw. Ka hring nahanelah a sak e hah na pâpho pouh vai.
Come and hear, all you who fear God. I will declare what he has done for my soul.
17 Ka pahni hoi ama koe ka hram teh, ka lai hoi ama teh ka tawm.
I cried to him with my mouth. He was extolled with my tongue.
18 Ka lungthin ni payonnae hah noutna hoeh pawiteh, Bawipa ni na thai pouh mahoeh.
If I cherished sin in my heart, the Lord wouldn’t have listened.
19 Hatei, Cathut ni na thai pouh katang teh, ka hramnae lawk hai kahawicalah a thai.
But most certainly, God has listened. He has heard the voice of my prayer.
20 Ka ratoumnae pahnawt hoeh niteh, kai koehoi a lungmanae ka puen hoeh e, Cathut teh pholen lah awm seh.
Blessed be God, who has not turned away my prayer, nor his loving kindness from me.
