< Psalms 129 >
1 Often have they fought against me from my youth, let Israel now say.
Tangtlaeng Laa Ka camoe lamloh kai mat n'daengdaeh he Israel loh thui laeh saeh.
2 Often have they fought against me from my youth: but they could not prevail over me.
Ka camoe lamloh kai he mat n'daengdaeh uh dae kai he n'noeng moenih.
3 The wicked have wrought upon my back: they have lengthened their iniquity.
Ka uen soah a thoe a thoe uh tih a hma sokah a hma te a yoe uh.
4 The Lord who is just will cut the necks of sinners:
Aka dueng BOEIPA loh halang rhoek kah rhuivaeh te a tlueh pah.
5 Let them all be confounded and turned back that hate Sion.
Zion aka thiinah rhoek boeih tah yahpok uh saeh lamtah a hnuk la balkhong uh saeh.
6 Let them be as grass on the tops of houses: which withered before it be plucked up:
Imphu kah sulrham bangla om saeh. Te tah amah hmuen ah a rhae la a phuk.
7 Wherewith the mower filleth not his hand: nor he that gathereth sheaves his bosom.
Te te a ah tih a ban neh a kulup akhaw a kutpha dongah a bae moenih.
8 And they that have passed by have not said: The blessing of the Lord be upon you: we have blessed you in the name of the Lord.
Te vaengah aka kongpa rhoek loh, “Nangmih soah BOEIPA kah yoethennah om saeh. BOEIPA ming neh nangmih te yoethen kan paek uh,” ti uh boel saeh.
