Psalms 122

1 I rejoiced at the things that were said to me: We shall go into the house of the Lord.

David kah Tangtlaeng Laa Kai taengah, “BOEIPA im la cet uh sih,” a ti uh vaengah ka kohoe.

2 Our feet were standing in thy courts, O Jerusalem.

Jerusalem nang kah vongka ah kaimih kho loh pai uh tih om uh.

3 Jerusalem, which is built as a city, which is compact together.

Jerusalem te khopuei la tun cingcui sak ham ni a thoong.

4 For thither did the tribes go up, the tribes of the Lord: the testimony of Israel, to praise the name of the Lord.

BOEIPA kah koca koca tah olphong bangla BOEIPA ming te uem ham Israel taengla pahoi cet uh.

5 Because their seats have sat in judgment, seats upon the house of David.

David im kah laitloeknah ngolkhoel ham ngolkhoel te pahoi a hol uh.

6 Pray ye for the things that are for the peace of Jerusalem: and abundance for them that love thee.

Jerusalem kah sadingnah hamla bih uh. Nang aka lungnah rhoek tah dingsuek saeh.

7 Let peace be in thy strength: and abundance in thy towers.

Na rhalmahvong khuiah rhoepnah, na impuei khuiah ommongnah om saeh.

8 For the sake of my brethren, and of my neighbours, I spoke peace of thee.

Ka manuca neh ka hui rhoek ham khaw, “Na khuiah rhoepnah om laeh saeh,” ka ti eh.

9 Because of the house of the Lord our God, I have sought good things for thee.

Mamih Pathen BOEIPA im ham ni nang kah hnothen khaw ka toem eh.
