Psalms 122

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

Kathutkung: Devit BAWIPA e im dawk cet awh sei telah, kai koe ati awh navah, ka lunghawi.

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

Oe Jerusalem, kaimae khok teh, nange takhang thungvah a kangdue han.

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

Jerusalem teh kacakpounglah sak e lah ao.

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

BAWIPA e miphunnaw teh hote kho dawk a cei awh katang. Isarelnaw e phung patetlah BAWIPA e a miphunnaw teh BAWIPA min pholen hanelah, BAWIPA min pholen nahanelah a ceitakhang awh.

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

Bangkongtetpawiteh, hote hmuen koevah, bawitungkhungnaw, Devit imthung bawitungkhungnaw lawkceng nahanelah a hruek awh.

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

Jerusalem a roum nahanlah ratoum awh. Nang lungpataw naw teh a hmacawn awh naseh.

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

Nange rapannaw roumnae awmseh. Na impui hawinae coe awh naseh.

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

Ka hmaunawngha han hoi ka huikonaw hanelah, nang dawk roumnae awm seh telah ka dei han.

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

Maimae BAWIPA Cathut im hane dawkvah, nange hawinae hah ka tawng han.
