Psalms 122

1 A Song of degrees of David. I was glad when they said unto me, Let us go into the house of the LORD.

Bawipa a im na cet u sih,” tinawh amik kqawn law awh zeel soeih nyng.

2 Our feet shall stand within thy gates, O Jerusalem.

Aw Jerusalem, kaimih a khaw khqi ve vawng chawmkeng awh dyi hawh uhy.

3 Jerusalem is builded as a city that is compact together:

Jerusalem taw khawk bau ak zoei cana ami sak amyihna sak na awm hy.

4 Whither the tribes go up, the tribes of the LORD, unto the testimony of Israel, to give thanks unto the name of the LORD.

Israel a venawh cuk kiknaak awipeek peek na a awm amyihna, Bawipang ming kyihcah ham, cawh ce thlang pilnamkhqi, Bawipa a pilnam khqi hang cet uhy.

5 For there are set thrones of judgment, the thrones of the house of David.

Cawh ce awidengnaak boei ngawihdoelh khqi, David ipkhui awhkaw boei ngawihdoelh khqi awm hy.

6 Pray for the peace of Jerusalem: they shall prosper that love thee.

Jerusalem ngaihqepnaak aham cykcah lah uh: “Nang anik lungnaak thlangkhqi ce qalmawng na awm u seh.

7 Peace be within thy walls, [and] prosperity within thy palaces.

Na vawng khuiawh ngaihqepnaak awm seitaw, na boei awmnaak im kqang ngaihqepnaak awm seh.”

8 For my brethren and companions’ sakes, I will now say, Peace [be] within thee.

Ka koeinaa ingkaw pyikhqi awh, “Nang ak khuiawh ngaihqepnaak awm seh,” ti kawng nyng.

9 Because of the house of the LORD our God I will seek thy good.

Bawipa ningnih Khawsa im awh, nang a boeimangnaak ce sui kawng nyng.
