Psalms 122

1 A Song of Ascents; of David. I rejoiced when they said unto me: 'Let us go unto 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 are standing within thy gates, O Jerusalem;

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

3 Jerusalem, that art builded as a city that is compact together;

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

4 Whither the tribes went up, even the tribes of the LORD, as a testimony unto Israel, to give thanks unto the name of the LORD.

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

5 For there were set thrones for judgment, the thrones of the house of David.

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

6 Pray for the peace of Jerusalem; may they prosper that love thee.

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

7 Peace be within thy walls, and prosperity within thy palaces.

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

8 For my brethren and companions' sakes, I will now say: 'Peace be within thee.'

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

9 For the sake of the house of the LORD our God I will seek thy good.

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