Psalms 128

1 A Song of Ascents. How happy is every one that revereth Yahweh, who walketh in his ways!

Kathutkung: Panuekhoeh, tami tangawn ni Hezekiah a ti awh BAWIPA ka taket niteh, a lamthung ka dawn e tami pueng teh, tami yawkahawi e doeh.

2 The labour of thine own hands, surely thou shalt eat. How happy thou, and well for thine!

Hottelah na sak pawiteh, nang teh na kut hoi na tawk e hah atangcalah na ca han. Yawhawi awm vaiteh, lunghawinae na coe han.

3 Thy wife, like a fruitful vine, within the recesses of thy house, —Thy children, like plantings of olive-trees, round about thy table.

Na yu teh na im thung kaawm niteh, a paw moi kapaw e misurkung hoi a kâvan. Na canu capanaw teh, na caboi petkâkalup lah, ung e olivekungnaw patetlah ao awh han.

4 Lo! thus, shall be blessed the man who revereth Yahweh.

Khenhaw! Bawipa ka taket e teh, hot patet e yawhawinae a coe han.

5 Yahweh will bless thee, out of Zion, —and behold thou the welfare of Jerusalem, all the days of thy life!

BAWIPA ni Zion hoi yawhawi na poe seh. Na hringyung thung Jerusalem e hawinae na hmawt naseh.

6 And behold thou thy children’s children, —Prosperity on Israel!

Na canaw ni a khe e canaw hai na hmawt naseh. Isarelnaw koe roumnae awm seh.
