Psalms 122

1 A song of ascents, of David. I was glad when they said to me, “Let us go to the house of Yahweh.”

David kah Tangtlaeng Laa Kai taengah, “BOEIPA im la cet uh sih,” a ti uh vaengah ka kohoe.

2 Jerusalem, our feet are standing within your gates!

Jerusalem nang kah vongka ah kaimih kho loh pai uh tih om uh.

3 Jerusalem, built as a city carefully planned!

Jerusalem te khopuei la tun cingcui sak ham ni a thoong.

4 The tribes go up to Jerusalem—the tribes of Yahweh— as a testimony for Israel, to give thanks to the name of Yahweh.

BOEIPA kah koca koca tah olphong bangla BOEIPA ming te uem ham Israel taengla pahoi cet uh.

5 There thrones of judgment were set, thrones of the house of David.

David im kah laitloeknah ngolkhoel ham ngolkhoel te pahoi a hol uh.

6 Pray for the peace of Jerusalem! “May those who love you have peace.

Jerusalem kah sadingnah hamla bih uh. Nang aka lungnah rhoek tah dingsuek saeh.

7 May there be peace within the walls that defend you, and may they have peace within your fortresses.”

Na rhalmahvong khuiah rhoepnah, na impuei khuiah ommongnah om saeh.

8 For the sake of my brothers and my friends I will say, “May there be peace within you.”

Ka manuca neh ka hui rhoek ham khaw, “Na khuiah rhoepnah om laeh saeh,” ka ti eh.

9 For the sake of the house of Yahweh our God, I will seek good for you.

Mamih Pathen BOEIPA im ham ni nang kah hnothen khaw ka toem eh.
