The eyes of the Lord are over the righteous, and his ears [are open] to their prayer:
16 Hinla thilse bolte chu dou mitnin aven, aman amin u leiset aathaimang ding ahi.

17 Pakai in panpi ngaichaho kouna angaipeh in. Aboi naova kon in ahuhdoh jin ahi.
and delivered them out of all their afflictions.
18 Lungthim kisuchipte kom a Pakai chu anai in; Alhagao kisu gimte ahuhdoh jin ahi.
The Lord is near to them that are of a contrite heart; and will save the lowly in spirit.
