Psalms 124

1 A Song of the Ascents, by David. Save [for] Jehovah — who hath been for us, (Pray, let Israel say),

David kah Tangtlaeng Laa Israel loh, “Mamih ham BOEIPA te om pawt koinih,” ti laeh saeh.

2 Save [for] Jehovah — who hath been for us, In the rising up of man against us,

Hlang loh mamih taengah a tlai vaengah mamih ham BOEIPA om pawt koinih;

3 Then alive they had swallowed us up, In the burning of their anger against us,

Mamih taengah a thintoek neh a sai vaengah mamih he a hingsai n'dolh uh ni.

4 Then the waters had overflowed us, The stream passed over our soul,

Tui loh mamih n'yo vetih soklong loh mamih hinglu he a kawt pawn ni.

5 Then passed over our soul had the proud waters.

Lungpok tui loh mamih kah hinglu a et ni.

6 Blessed [is] Jehovah who hath not given us, A prey to their teeth.

Amih no dongah maeh la mamih aka tloeng pawh BOEIPA te a yoethen pai saeh.

7 Our soul as a bird hath escaped from a snare of fowlers, The snare was broken, and we have escaped.

Mamih kah hinglu tah vaa bangla pael neh a hlaeh khui lamloh loeih. Pael te rhek tih mamih n'loeih uh.

8 Our help [is] in the name of Jehovah, Maker of the heavens and earth!

Vaan neh diklai aka saii BOEIPA ming dongah mamih bomkung om.
