Psalms 48

1 A Song; a Psalm of the sons of Korah. Great is the LORD, and highly to be praised, in the city of our God, His holy mountain,

Kathutkung: Korah capanaw BAWIPA teh a lentoe poung. Cathut khopui dawk lentoe poung lah, amae mon kathoung dawk pholen hanlah a kamcu.

2 Fair in situation, the joy of the whole earth; even mount Zion, the uttermost parts of the north, the city of the great King.

Zion mon atunglah kaawm e teh arasang teh a meihawi.

3 God in her palaces hath made Himself known for a stronghold.

Cathut teh a im dawkvah ao teh, a kânguenae rapan tie panue lah ao.

4 For, lo, the kings assembled themselves, they came onward together.

Bangkongtetpawiteh, siangpahrangnaw a kamkhueng awh teh, cungtalah a dei awh.

5 They saw, straightway they were amazed; they were affrighted, they hasted away.

A hmu awh toteh, a kalue awh teh koung a yawng awh.

6 Trembling took hold of them there, pangs, as of a woman in travail.

Kanîtholah e kahlî hoi Tarshish long kalennaw ouk a raphoe e patetlah,

7 With the east wind Thou breakest the ships of Tarshish.

Haw tueng vah, takinae ni a man awh teh, napui camokhe pataw e patetlah a man awh.

8 As we have heard, so have we seen in the city of the LORD of hosts, in the city of our God — God establish it for ever. (Selah)

Panue awh tangcoung e hoi hmu awh tangcoung e patetlah, ransahu BAWIPA khopui, maimae Cathut khopui teh, Cathut ni a yungyoe hanelah a caksak han.

9 We have thought on Thy lovingkindness, O God, in the midst of Thy temple.

Oe Cathut, na bawkim lungui vah, na pahrenlungmanae ouk ka pouk awh.

10 As is Thy name, O God, so is Thy praise unto the ends of the earth; Thy right hand is full of righteousness.

Oe Cathut, na min patetlah nang pholennae ni, talai pout totouh a pha teh, nange aranglae kut teh lannae hoi akawi.

11 Let mount Zion be glad, let the daughters of Judah rejoice, because of Thy judgments.

Na lawkcengnae dawkvah, Zion mon teh lunghawi naseh, Zion canu hai konawm naseh.

12 Walk about Zion, and go round about her; count the towers thereof.

Zion hah lawngven awh nateh, imrasangnaw hah parei awh haw.

13 Mark ye well her ramparts, traverse her palaces; that ye may tell it to the generation following.

Sekatha dawk kaawm han rae naw koe patuen na dei thai awh nahanlah, kalupnae hah pâkuem awh nateh, siangpahrang imnaw hah pouk awh haw.

14 For such is God, our God, for ever and ever; He will guide us eternally.

Bangkongtetpawiteh, Cathut teh a yungyoe maimae Cathut doeh. Ahni teh maimouh due totouh hai na kahrawikung lah ao.
