< Psalms 122 >
1 A Song of the Ascents, by David. I have rejoiced in those saying to me, 'To the house of Jehovah we go.'
David kah Tangtlaeng Laa Kai taengah, “BOEIPA im la cet uh sih,” a ti uh vaengah ka kohoe.
2 Our feet have been standing in thy gates, O Jerusalem!
Jerusalem nang kah vongka ah kaimih kho loh pai uh tih om uh.
3 Jerusalem — the builded one — [Is] as a city that is joined to itself together.
Jerusalem te khopuei la tun cingcui sak ham ni a thoong.
4 For thither have tribes gone up, Tribes of Jah, companies of Israel, To give thanks to the name of Jehovah.
BOEIPA kah koca koca tah olphong bangla BOEIPA ming te uem ham Israel taengla pahoi cet uh.
5 For there have sat thrones of judgment, Thrones of the house of David.
David im kah laitloeknah ngolkhoel ham ngolkhoel te pahoi a hol uh.
6 Ask ye the peace of Jerusalem, At rest are those loving thee.
Jerusalem kah sadingnah hamla bih uh. Nang aka lungnah rhoek tah dingsuek saeh.
7 Peace is in thy bulwark, rest in thy high places,
Na rhalmahvong khuiah rhoepnah, na impuei khuiah ommongnah om saeh.
8 For the sake of my brethren and my companions, Let me speak, I pray thee, 'Peace [be] in thee.'
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 Jehovah our God, I seek good for thee!
Mamih Pathen BOEIPA im ham ni nang kah hnothen khaw ka toem eh.
