Psalms 124

1 A Song of degrees of David. If it had not been the LORD who was on our side, now may Israel say;

David ih kasang laa. Aicae bangah Angraeng om ai nahaeloe, Israelnawk mah hae tiah thui o nasoe;

2 If it had not been the LORD who was on our side, when men rose up against us:

aicae bangah Angraeng om ai nahaeloe, kaminawk loe aicae ih misa ah om o tih,

3 Then they had swallowed us up alive, when their wrath was kindled against us:

nihcae mah aicae han palung ang phui o thuih naah, aicae to kahing ah na paaeh o tih boeh;

4 Then the waters had overwhelmed us, the stream had gone over our soul:

kalen tui mah aicae khuk khoep ueloe, aicae pakhra nuiah tui to long tih boeh;

5 Then the proud waters had gone over our soul.

kamoek tuinawk loe aicae pakhra nuiah long o tih boeh.

6 Blessed be the LORD, who hath not given us as a prey to their teeth.

Nihcae mah aicae haa hoi kaek hanah paek ai, Angraeng loe tahamhoihaih om nasoe.

7 Our soul hath escaped as a bird out of the snare of the fowlers: the snare is broken, and we have escaped.

Aicae ih pakhra loe dongh patung kami ih dongh thung hoi kaloih tavaa baktiah loih o; dongh qui to apet dok moe, aicae loe a loih o.

8 Our help is in the name of the LORD, who made heaven and earth.

Aicae abomhaih loe van hoi long sahkung, Angraeng ih ahmin ah ni oh.
