Psalms 124

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

Kathutkung: Devit BAWIPA ni na awmkhai hoeh pawiteh, telah Isarelnaw ni atu a dei awh hane teh,

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

BAWIPA teh maimouh koe lah awm hoeh pawiteh, taminaw ni na taran awh navah,

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

a lungkhuek awh vaiteh, maimouh hah hringo na payawp awh toe.

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

Hatnavah, tui ni maimanaw teh muen na ramuk teh tui ka lawng e ni, maimae hringnae van muen a lawng sin toe.

5 Then passed over our soul had the proud waters.

Puenghoi kalawng e tui ni maimae hringnae teh muen a lawng sin toe, tie hah doeh.

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

Ahnimouh ni hâ hoi na ai awh nahanelah, maimanaw hah ahnimouh koe na poe awh hoeh. BAWIPA teh pholen lah awm seh.

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

Maimae hringnae teh, tangkam dawk hoi kahlout e tava patetlah a hlout toe. Tangkam a lawt teh, maimouh hlout awh toe.

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

Maimouh kabawpnae teh, kalvan hoi talai ka sak e BAWIPA min lahoi coe awh.
