For the end, a Psalm for the sons of Core, concerning the wine-presses. How amiable are thy tabernacles, O Lord 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, and faints for the courts of the Lord: my heart and my flesh have exulted in the living god.

Yea, the sparrow has found himself a home, and the turtle-dove a nest for herself, where she may lay her young, [even] thine altars, O Lord 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 is the man whose help is of thee, O Lord; in his heart he has purposed to go up
6 Baca yawn dawk a cei awh navah, tuiphuek tâconae lah a coung sak teh, khotui hai a kamuem sak.

7 Thaonae koehoi thathoenae koe lah cei awh teh, buet touh hnukkhu buet touh Zion Cathut hmalah a kamnue awh.
They shall go from strength to strength: the God of gods shall be seen in Sion.
8 Oe ransahu Cathut BAWIPA, ka ratoumnae heh na thai pouh haw. Oe, Jakop Cathut, na hnâpakeng haw.
O Lord God of hosts, hear my prayer: hearken, O God of Jacob. (Pause)
9 Oe Cathut, ka bahling khen nateh, Satui na awi e mei hah khenhaw!
Behold, O God our defender, 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 one day in thy courts is better than thousands. I would rather be an abject in the house of God, than dwell in the tents of sinners.
11 Bangkongtetpawiteh, BAWIPA Cathut teh kanî hoi bahling doeh. BAWIPA ni lungmanae hoi bawilennae a poe han.
For the Lord loves mercy and truth: God will give grace and glory: the Lord will not withhold good things from them that walk in innocence.
12 Oe ransahu BAWIPA, nang kâuep e teh a yaw kahawi e doeh.
O Lord of hosts, blessed is the man that trusts in thee.
