¹In my distress I cried unto the LORD, and he heard me.

¹Ka mangbatna ah Toupa ka sama, huchiin aman hondawng hi.

²Deliver my soul, O LORD, from lying lips, and from a deceitful tongue.

²Toupa aw, muk juautheite lakah leh lei mi khemhat lakah ka hinna humbit in.

³What shall be given unto thee? or what shall be done unto thee, thou false tongue?

³Nang lei khemhat, na kiangah bang a honpia ding ua, bang a honbehlap ding ua?

⁴Sharp arrows of the mighty, with coals of juniper.

⁴Mi hat thal zumtakte, Juniper sing lingte toh.

⁵Woe is me, that I sojourn in Mesech, that I dwell in the tents of Kedar!

⁵Mashekte gama ka om leh Kedarte puanin laka ka om ka tung a gik hi.

⁶My soul hath long dwelt with him that hateth peace.

⁶Ka hinnain lemna hote kiangah sawtpi omna a neita hi.Ken kituah ka uta; himahleh thu ka gen takin kidou a ut nak uhi.

⁷I am for peace: but when I speak, they are for war.

⁷Ken kituah ka uta; himahleh thu ka gen takin kidou a ut nak uhi.
