< Psalms 115 >
1 Not to us, LORD, not to us, but to your name give glory, for your loving kindness, and for your truth’s sake.
Kaicae khaeah na ai, Aw Angraeng, kaicae khaeah na ai, na palungnathaih hoi na loktang lok pongah, na hmin lensawkhaih to om nasoe.
2 Why should the nations say, “Where is their God, now?”
Tipongah Sithaw panoek ai kaminawk mah, Nihcae ih Sithaw loe naa ah maw oh tiah thuih o loe?
3 But our God is in the heavens. He does whatever he pleases.
Aicae ih Sithaw loe van ah oh; anih loe a koeh baktiah hmuennawk to sak.
4 Their idols are silver and gold, the work of men’s hands.
Nihcae ih krang loe kami ban hoiah sak ih sumkanglung hoi sui ah ni oh.
5 They have mouths, but they don’t speak. They have eyes, but they don’t see.
Nihcae loe pakha tawnh o, toe lok apae o thai ai; mik a tawnh o, toe hnu o thai ai;
6 They have ears, but they don’t hear. They have noses, but they don’t smell.
naa a tawnh o, toe thaih o thai ai, hnah doeh a tawnh o, toe ahmui thaih o thai ai;
7 They have hands, but they don’t feel. They have feet, but they don’t walk, neither do they speak through their throat.
ban a tawnh o, toe sui o thai ai; khok a tawnh o, toe caeh o thai ai; taaw hoiah lokthui o thai ai.
8 Those who make them will be like them; yes, everyone who trusts in them.
Krang sah kaminawk loe krang hoiah anghmong o, krang oephaih tawn kaminawk doeh krang baktiah ni oh o.
9 Israel, trust in the LORD! He is their help and their shield.
Aw Israel imthung takoh, Angraeng to oep ah; anih loe nangcae bomkung hoi angvaenghaih ah oh.
10 House of Aaron, trust in the LORD! He is their help and their shield.
Aaron imthung takoh, Angraeng to oep oh, anih loe nihcae bomkung hoi abuephaih ah oh.
11 You who fear the LORD, trust in the LORD! He is their help and their shield.
Anih zii kaminawk, Angraeng to oep oh; anih loe nihcae bomkung hoi abuephaih ah oh.
12 The LORD remembers us. He will bless us. He will bless the house of Israel. He will bless the house of Aaron.
Angraeng mah aicae pahnet mak ai; aicae hanah angmah ih tahamhoihaih to paek tih: Israel imthung takoh to tahamhoihaih paek ueloe, Aaron imthung takoh doeh tahamhoihhaih paek tih.
13 He will bless those who fear the LORD, both small and great.
Kathoeng doeh kalen doeh, Angraeng zii kaminawk loe anih mah tahamhoihaih to paek tih.
14 May the LORD increase you more and more, you and your children.
Angraeng mah nangmah hoi na caanawk to pungsak aep nasoe.
15 Blessed are you by the LORD, who made heaven and earth.
Van hoi long sahkung Angraeng mah tahamhoihhaih paek nasoe.
16 The heavens are the LORD’s heavens, but he has given the earth to the children of men.
Van hoi vannawk loe Angraeng ih ni; toe long loe kaminawk khaeah a paek boeh.
17 The dead don’t praise the LORD, nor any who go down into silence,
Angqai krang ahmuen ah caeh tathuk, kadueh kaminawk loe Angraeng to saphaw o vai ai.
18 but we will bless the LORD, from this time forward and forever more. Praise the LORD!
Toe kaicae loe vaihi hoi dungzan khoek to Angraeng tahamhoihaih ka paek o han. Angraeng to saphaw oh.
