Psalms 146

1 Hallelujah. Praise, O my soul, the Lord.

Angraeng to pakoeh ah. Aw ka hinghaih, Angraeng to pakoeh ah.

2 I will praise the Lord throughout my life: I will sing praises unto my God while I have any being.

Ka hing thung Angraeng to ka pakoeh han; ka hing thung boih ka Sithaw pakoehhaih laa to ka sak han.

3 Put not your trust in princes, in the son of man, in whom there is no salvation.

long angraengnawk to oep hmah, kami doeh oep hmah; nihcae mah abomh o thai mak ai.

4 When his spirit goeth forth, he returneth to his [native] earth: on that very day perish his thoughts.

Nihcae loe duek naah long ah ni amlaem o let; to naah nihcae poekhaihnawk boih to anghmat.

5 [But] happy is he who hath the God of Jacob for his help, whose hope is on the Lord his God;

Jakob ih Sithaw to bomkung ah suem kami, a oephaih to angmah ih Angraeng Sithaw khaeah suem kami loe tahamhoih,

6 Who hath made heaven, and earth, the sea, and all that is therein; who keepeth truth for ever;

Anih mah ni long hoi van, tuipui hoi athung ah kaom hmuennawk boih to sak; anih loe dungzan khoek to oepthoh;

7 Who executeth justice for the oppressed: who giveth bread to the hungry: the Lord looseneth the prisoners;

pacaekthlaek ih kaminawk to toenghaih hoiah lok a caek; zok amthlam kaminawk to buh a paek. Angraeng mah ni thongkrah kaminawk to loisak.

8 The Lord causeth the blind to see; the Lord raiseth up those who are bowed down; the Lord loveth the righteous:

Angraeng mah mikmaengnawk to mik amtuengsak moe, poek pahnaem kaminawk to tapom tahang; katoeng kaminawk to Angraeng mah palung.

9 The Lord guardeth the strangers; the fatherless and widow he helpeth up; but the way of the wicked he maketh crooked.

Angraeng mah angvinnawk to toep moe, ampa tawn ai kami hoi lamhmainawk to pacah; toe kasae kaminawk ih loklam loe buenglueng tamlet ah ohsak.

10 The Lord will reign for ever, even thy God, O Zion, unto all generations. Hallelujah.

Angraeng loe dungzan khoek to Angraeng ah om tih; Aw Zion, na Sithaw mah adungnawk boih khoek to uk tih. Angraeng to saphaw oh.
