< Psalms 112 >
1 Praise the Lord! Happy are those who respect the Lord, who love to do what he says!
BOEIPA te thangthen uh. BOEIPA aka rhih tih a olpaek dongah bahoeng aka hmae hlang tah a yoethen.
2 Their descendants will prosper in the land; the children of those who do good will be blessed.
A tiingan te diklai ah a rhalh la om vetih, aka thuem kah cadilcahma tah a yoethen ni.
3 Their families will be wealthy; the good they do has eternal results.
A im ah boeinah neh khuehtawn soep tih a duengnah a yoeyah la cak.
4 Light shines in the darkness for those who live right, for those who are gracious, compassionate, and good.
Aka thuem ham tah a hmuep khuiah khaw thinphoei lungvatnah neh duengnah khosae te a thoeng pah.
5 Good things come to those who are generous in their lending and are honest in doing business.
Hlang then loh a rhen tih a pu vaengah a ol te a tiktamnah neh a cangbam.
6 They will never fall. Those who live right won't be forgotten.
A dueng la aka om tah kumhal ah poekkoepnah a om coeng dongah anih ngawntah kumhal duela tuen mahpawh.
7 They aren't afraid of bad news because they rely totally on the Lord.
BOEIPA dongah aka pangtung tih a lungbuei aka cikngae loh olthang thae te rhih mahpawh.
8 They are confident and brave, and see their enemies defeated.
A lungbuei a uep dongah a rhal rhoek te a hmuh vaengah rhih mahpawh.
9 They share generously, giving to the poor; the good they do has eternal results. They are greatly respected.
Khodaeng rhoek ham a tael pah tih a paek. A duengnah he a yoeyah la a cak dongah a ki khaw thangpomnah neh a pomsang ni.
10 The wicked observe all this and are mad; they gnash their teeth in anger. They waste away, and all that they hoped for comes to nothing.
Halang loh a hmuh vaengah hue a sak ni. A no tak cakhaw halang kah hoehhamnah ngawntah yip milh ni.
