Psalms 124

1 If it had not been that the Lord was with us, let Israel now say:

Kathutkung: Devit BAWIPA ni na awmkhai hoeh pawiteh, telah Isarelnaw ni atu a dei awh hane teh,

2 If it had not been that the Lord was with us, When men rose up against us,

BAWIPA teh maimouh koe lah awm hoeh pawiteh, taminaw ni na taran awh navah,

3 Perhaps they had swallowed us up alive. When their fury was enkindled against us,

a lungkhuek awh vaiteh, maimouh hah hringo na payawp awh toe.

4 Perhaps the waters had swallowed us up.

Hatnavah, tui ni maimanaw teh muen na ramuk teh tui ka lawng e ni, maimae hringnae van muen a lawng sin toe.

5 Our soul hath passed through a torrent: perhaps our soul had passed through a water insupportable.

Puenghoi kalawng e tui ni maimae hringnae teh muen a lawng sin toe, tie hah doeh.

6 Blessed be the Lord, who hath not given us to be a prey to their teeth.

Ahnimouh ni hâ hoi na ai awh nahanelah, maimanaw hah ahnimouh koe na poe awh hoeh. BAWIPA teh pholen lah awm seh.

7 Our soul hath been delivered as a sparrow out of the snare of the followers. The snare is broken, and we are delivered.

Maimae hringnae teh, tangkam dawk hoi kahlout e tava patetlah a hlout toe. Tangkam a lawt teh, maimouh hlout awh toe.

8 Our help is in the name of the Lord, who made heaven and earth.

Maimouh kabawpnae teh, kalvan hoi talai ka sak e BAWIPA min lahoi coe awh.
