< Psalms 87 >
1 His foundation is in the holy mountains.
Kathutkung: Korah capanaw Khopui teh mon ka thoung dawk a kangdue sak.
2 Jehovah loves the gates of Zion more than all the dwellings of Jacob.
Jakop khosaknae pueng hlak hai BAWIPA ni Zion longkha a lungpatawhnawn.
3 Glorious things are spoken of thee, O city of God. (Selah)
Oe Cathut e khopui, na kong heh ka sungren poung lah ouk a dei awh. (Selah)
4 I will make mention of Rahab and Babylon as among those who know me. Behold, Philistia, and Tyre, with Ethiopia: This man was born there.
Na kapanueknaw koe Rahab hoi Babilon kong hah ka dei han. Khenhaw! Oe Filistin hoi Taire, Ethiopia, hetheh, haw hoi ka tâcawt e doeh ati awh han.
5 Yea, of Zion it shall be said, this and that man was born in her, and the Most High himself will establish her.
Zion kong dawk hettelah a dei awh han. Het hoi hot teh ama dawk hoi ka tâcawt e doeh. Lathueng Poung ni a ma teh, a caksak telah ati awh han.
6 Jehovah will count when he writes up the peoples: This man was born there. (Selah)
BAWIPA ni tami pueng min a thut toteh, hethateh, haw e ka tâcawt e doeh telah mitnout a ta awh han.
7 Those who sing as well as those who dance shall say, All my fountains are in thee.
La kasaknaw hoi tumkhawng kakhawngnaw ni, tuiphuek pueng nang koe ao telah ati awh han.
