Sam 84
1 Kathutkung: Korah capanaw Oe ransahu BAWIPA, na onae teh banghloimaw ngai ao.
How amiable are thy tabernacles, O Jehovah of hosts!
2 Ka hringnae ni a rabui, Bokheiyah, BAWIPA thongma rabui laihoi ka tâwn. Ka lungthin hoi ka takthai ni kahring Cathut teh atangcalah a kaw.
My soul longs, yea, even faints for the courts of Jehovah. My heart and my flesh cry out to the living God.
3 Oe ransahu BAWIPA, ka Siangpahrang hoi ka Cathut, na thuengnae khoungroe dawk pusu ni tabu a tuk teh, pingpit ni hai a canaw ta nahanelah tabu a tuk.
Yea, the sparrow has found her a house, and the swallow a nest for herself where she may lay her young, even thine altars, O Jehovah of hosts, my King and my God.
4 Na im dawk kaawmnaw teh, a yaw kahawi e doeh. Pou na pholen awh han. (Selah)
Blessed are those who dwell in thy house. They will still be praising thee. (Selah)
5 Nang thaonae lah ka hnonaw hoi hmuen ka thoung koe cei ngainae lungthin ka tawn naw teh tami a yaw kahawi e doeh.
Blessed is the man whose strength is in thee, in whose heart are the highways to Zion.
6 Baca yawn dawk a cei awh navah, tuiphuek tâconae lah a coung sak teh, khotui hai a kamuem sak.
Passing through the valley of weeping they make it a place of springs. Yea, the early rain covers it with blessings.
7 Thaonae koehoi thathoenae koe lah cei awh teh, buet touh hnukkhu buet touh Zion Cathut hmalah a kamnue awh.
They go from strength to strength; each one of them appears before God in Zion.
8 Oe ransahu Cathut BAWIPA, ka ratoumnae heh na thai pouh haw. Oe, Jakop Cathut, na hnâpakeng haw.
O Jehovah God of hosts, hear my prayer. Give ear, O God of Jacob. (Selah)
9 Oe Cathut, ka bahling khen nateh, Satui na awi e mei hah khenhaw!
Behold, O God our shield, and look upon the face of thine anointed.
10 Bangkongtetpawiteh, na thongma dawk hnin touh o e teh, alouklah hnin 1,000 touh o e hlak ahawihnawn. Thoenae rim dawk o e hlak teh Cathut im longkha ring e ka ngaihnawn.
For a day in thy courts is better than a thousand. I had rather be a doorkeeper in the house of my God, than to dwell in the tents of wickedness.
11 Bangkongtetpawiteh, BAWIPA Cathut teh kanî hoi bahling doeh. BAWIPA ni lungmanae hoi bawilennae a poe han.
For Jehovah God is a sun and a shield. Jehovah will give grace and glory. He will withhold no good thing from those who walk uprightly.
12 Oe ransahu BAWIPA, nang kâuep e teh a yaw kahawi e doeh.
O Jehovah of hosts, blessed is the man who trusts in thee.
