< Psalms 84 >
1 [For the Chief Musician. On an instrument of Gath. A Psalm by the sons of Korah.] How lovely are your dwellings, YHWH of hosts.
Kathutkung: Korah capanaw Oe ransahu BAWIPA, na onae teh banghloimaw ngai ao.
2 My soul longs, yes, yearns for the courts of YHWH. My heart and my flesh cry out for the living God.
Ka hringnae ni a rabui, Bokheiyah, BAWIPA thongma rabui laihoi ka tâwn. Ka lungthin hoi ka takthai ni kahring Cathut teh atangcalah a kaw.
3 Yes, the sparrow has found a home, and the swallow a nest for herself, where she may have her young, near your altars, YHWH of hosts, my King, and my God.
Oe ransahu BAWIPA, ka Siangpahrang hoi ka Cathut, na thuengnae khoungroe dawk pusu ni tabu a tuk teh, pingpit ni hai a canaw ta nahanelah tabu a tuk.
4 Blessed are those who dwell in your house. They are ever praising you. (Selah)
Na im dawk kaawmnaw teh, a yaw kahawi e doeh. Pou na pholen awh han. (Selah)
5 Blessed are those whose strength is in you, who have set their hearts on a pilgrimage.
Nang thaonae lah ka hnonaw hoi hmuen ka thoung koe cei ngainae lungthin ka tawn naw teh tami a yaw kahawi e doeh.
6 Passing through the Valley of Baca, he makes it into a spring. Yes, the autumn rain covers it with blessings.
Baca yawn dawk a cei awh navah, tuiphuek tâconae lah a coung sak teh, khotui hai a kamuem sak.
7 They go from strength to strength. Everyone of them appears before God in Zion.
Thaonae koehoi thathoenae koe lah cei awh teh, buet touh hnukkhu buet touh Zion Cathut hmalah a kamnue awh.
8 YHWH, the God of hosts, hear my prayer. Listen, God of Jacob. (Selah)
Oe ransahu Cathut BAWIPA, ka ratoumnae heh na thai pouh haw. Oe, Jakop Cathut, na hnâpakeng haw.
9 Look, God our shield, look at the face of your anointed.
Oe Cathut, ka bahling khen nateh, Satui na awi e mei hah khenhaw!
10 For a day in your courts is better than a thousand. I would rather be a doorkeeper in the house of God, than to dwell in the tents of wickedness.
Bangkongtetpawiteh, na thongma dawk hnin touh o e teh, alouklah hnin 1,000 touh o e hlak ahawihnawn. Thoenae rim dawk o e hlak teh Cathut im longkha ring e ka ngaihnawn.
11 For YHWH God is a sun and a shield. YHWH will give grace and glory. He withholds no good thing from those who walk blamelessly.
Bangkongtetpawiteh, BAWIPA Cathut teh kanî hoi bahling doeh. BAWIPA ni lungmanae hoi bawilennae a poe han.
12 YHWH of hosts, blessed is the man who trusts in you.
Oe ransahu BAWIPA, nang kâuep e teh a yaw kahawi e doeh.
