Saam 24

1 David ih Saam laa. Long hoi a thung ih hmuennawk; long hoi a thungah kaom kaminawk boih loe, Angraeng ih ni.

Of David. A Psalm. The earth is Jehovah's, and the fulness thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein.

2 Anih mah to ahmuen to tuipui nuiah angdoetsak moe, tuinawk nuiah a caksak.

For it was he that founded it upon seas, and established it upon floods.

3 Mi maw angraeng ih mae nuiah daw tih? To tih ai boeh loe mi maw anih ih hmuenciim ah angdoe tih?

Who shall ascend into the mount of Jehovah? and who shall stand in his holy place?

4 Ban ciim kami hoi poek ciim kami, krangbokhaih bangah a hinghaih to paek ai, kamsoem ai hmuen ah lokkamhaih sah ai kami loe,

He that hath blameless hands and a pure heart; who lifteth not up his soul unto vanity, nor sweareth deceitfully:

5 Angraeng khae hoiah tahamhoihaih to hnu ueloe, anih pahlonghaih Sithaw khae hoiah toenghaih to hnu tih.

He shall receive blessing from Jehovah, and righteousness from the God of his salvation.

6 To kami loe Sithaw pakrong kaminawk ih acaeng, Sithaw krang pakrong Jakob ih acaeng ah oh. (Selah)

This is the generation of them that seek unto him, that seek thy face, O Jacob. (Selah)

Lift up your heads, ye gates, and be ye lifted up, ye everlasting doors, and the King of glory shall come in.

8 Hae lensawk siangpahrang loe mi aa? Anih loe lensawk thacak Angraeng, misatuk thacak Angraeng to ni.

Who is this King of glory? Jehovah strong and mighty, Jehovah mighty in battle.

9 Aw nangcae khongkhanawk, na lunawk to phok o tahang ah; nangcae dungzan thoknawk, angtoeng o tahang ah; lensawk Siangpahrang athung ah angzo tih.

Lift up your heads, ye gates; yea, lift up, ye everlasting doors, and the King of glory shall come in.

10 Hae lensawk Siangpahrang loe mi aa? Misatuh kaminawk ih Angraeng, anih loe lensawk Siangpahrang to boeh ni. (Selah)

Who is he, this King of glory? Jehovah of hosts, he is the King of glory. (Selah)
