Psalms 129

1 A Song of Ascents. 'Much have they afflicted me from my youth up', let Israel now say;

Ka naasen awhkawng cekkhqi ing ni husit hawh uhy, tina – Israelkhqi ing amik kqawnnaak taw –

2 'Much have they afflicted me from my youth up; but they have not prevailed against me.

cekkhqi ing ka naasen awhkawng ni husit hlai uhy, amni noeng khawi uhy.

3 The plowers plowed upon my back; they made long their furrows.

Lai ak nawkkhqi ing kam tingkawng awh lai nawk unawh, a qytnaak a ngaw sim hqa hy.

4 The LORD is righteous; He hath cut asunder the cords of the wicked.'

Cehlai Bawipa taw dyng hy; anih ing thlakchekhqi a qui ce boet law nawh ni loet sak hy.

5 Let them be ashamed and turned backward, all they that hate Zion.

Zion ak sawhnaak thlangkhqi boeih taw chah doena hlat u seh.

6 Let them be as the grass upon the housetops, which withereth afore it springeth up;

Iptih na sai ak cawt, a tai hlan awh ak zai nawn amyihna awm u seh;

7 Wherewith the reaper filleth not his hand, nor he that bindeth sheaves his bosom.

cemyih cetaw ak aatkung ing a kut awh ap pawm nawh, ak cawikung ingawm a ban awh ak be na ap tawm bai hy.

8 Neither do they that go by say: 'The blessing of the LORD be upon you; we bless you in the name of the LORD.'

Ce a hun awh ak cet saqui ing, “Bawipa a zoseennaak nak khan awh awm seh; Bawipang ming ing zoseennaak ni pe nyng,” am tina kawn.
