Psalms 24

1 A Psalm for David on the first day of the week. A Psalm for David on the first day of the week. The earth is the Lord's and the fullness thereof; the world, and all that dwell in it.

David ih Saam laa. Long hoi a thung ih hmuennawk; long hoi a thungah kaom kaminawk boih loe, Angraeng ih ni.

2 He has founded it upon the seas, and prepared it upon the rivers.

Anih mah to ahmuen to tuipui nuiah angdoetsak moe, tuinawk nuiah a caksak.

3 Who shall go up to the mountain of the Lord, and who shall stand in his holy place?

Mi maw angraeng ih mae nuiah daw tih? To tih ai boeh loe mi maw anih ih hmuenciim ah angdoe tih?

4 He that is innocent in his hands and pure in his heart; who has not lifted up his soul to vanity, nor sworn deceitfully to his neighbour.

Ban ciim kami hoi poek ciim kami, krangbokhaih bangah a hinghaih to paek ai, kamsoem ai hmuen ah lokkamhaih sah ai kami loe,

5 He shall receive a blessing from the Lord, and mercy from God his Saviour.

Angraeng khae hoiah tahamhoihaih to hnu ueloe, anih pahlonghaih Sithaw khae hoiah toenghaih to hnu tih.

6 This is the generation of them that seek him, that seek the face of the God of Jacob. (Pause)

To kami loe Sithaw pakrong kaminawk ih acaeng, Sithaw krang pakrong Jakob ih acaeng ah oh. (Selah)

7 Lift up your gates, you princes, and be you lifted up, you everlasting doors; and the king of glory shall come in.

Aw nangcae khongkhanawk, na lunawk to phok o tahang ah; nangcae dungzan thoknawk, angtoeng o tahang ah; lensawk Siangpahrang loe athung ah akun tih.

8 Who is this king of Glory? the Lord strong and mighty, the Lord mighty in battle.

Hae lensawk siangpahrang loe mi aa? Anih loe lensawk thacak Angraeng, misatuk thacak Angraeng to ni.

9 Lift up your gates, you princes; and be you lift up, you everlasting doors; and the king of glory shall come in.

Aw nangcae khongkhanawk, na lunawk to phok o tahang ah; nangcae dungzan thoknawk, angtoeng o tahang ah; lensawk Siangpahrang athung ah angzo tih.

10 Who is this king of glory? The Lord of hosts, he is this king of glory.

Hae lensawk Siangpahrang loe mi aa? Misatuh kaminawk ih Angraeng, anih loe lensawk Siangpahrang to boeh ni. (Selah)
