Psalms 48

1 “A song and psalm by the sons of Korach.” Great is the Lord, and highly praised in the city of our God, [in] his holy mountain.

Bawipa taw Boeimang na a awm dawngawh, ningnih a kyihcah tyng na awm qoe hy.

2 A beautiful district, the joy of the whole earth, is mount Zion, the farthest north, the city of the great King.

A sangnaak awh ak leek soeih, khawmdek awmhlynaak na awm hy. Boeimang soeih sangpahrang a khawk bau taw Zaphon tlang a sangnaak soeih Zion tlang amyihna awm hy.

3 God is become known in her palaces as a defence.

Khawsa taw amah a im awh awm nawh, amah ce vawngnu na chung qu hy.

4 For, lo, the kings were assembled, they are passed away together.

Sangpahrangkhqi ing za qu unawh, cem a qaal na ami ceh haih awh,

5 They indeed saw—[and] so they were astonished; they were terrified, they were confounded.

Anih ce hu tawk qat unawh cat uhy, kyih doena cen bang uhy.

6 Trembling seized on them there, pain, as on a woman in travail.

Cawh ce thyn ngawng ngawng unawh, nu ca awm tlawh ing a kee amyihna awm uhy.

7 With the east wind thou breakest the ships of Tharshish.

Khawlaw ben nakaw khawhli ing Tarshish awhkaw lawngkhqi a khup phlet peek amyihna cekkhqi ce hqe hyk ti.

8 As we have heard, so have we seen [it] in the city of the Lord of hosts, in the city of our God: God will establish it for ever. (Selah)

Ningmih ing ning zaak amyihna, Boeimang Bawipa ningnih a Khawsa khawk bau khuiawh ni huh hawh amyihna; Khawsa ing khawk bau ce kumqui dyna loet sak hy.

9 We have reflected on thy kindness, O God, in the midst of thy temple.

Aw Khawsa, na bawkim khuiawh, amak dyt thai na lungnaak ce poek unyng.

10 As thy name is, O God, so is thy praise over the ends of the earth: of righteousness is thy right hand full.

Aw Khawsa, namah ang ming amyihna nam kyihnaak ing khawmdek a dytnaak pha nawh, nak tang ben kut ce dyngnaak ing be loet hy.

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

Nak awidengnaak awh ce, Zion tlang ing zeel nawh, Juda khawkhqi ing amik kaw zeel hy.

12 Compass Zion about, and walk round about her; number her towers.

Zion kqang cet lah, a keng kqang cet nawhtaw, qaltoeng imkhqi ce noet lah,

13 Direct your mind to her outer wall, mark carefully her palaces: in order that ye may tell it to the latest generation.

Na cadilkhqi venawh nak kqawn peek na qaal a qeh awh dek ak cawhkhqi ingkaw a khawk bau ce toek lah.

14 For this One is God, our God for ever and ever: he will be our guide even unto death.

Ve Khawsa ve ningnih a kumqui Khawsa na awm nawh; a dyt dyna ningnih anik sawi khqi kung na awm kaw.
