¹O lord, thou hast searched me, and known me.

¹Toupa aw, nang ngentel takin non ensuaka, non theita hi.

²Thou knowest my downsitting and mine uprising, thou understandest my thought afar off.

²Nang ka tut leh ka din na thei naknaka, ka ngaihtuahna tuh gamlapi akipanin leng na thei thei hi.

³Thou compassest my path and my lying down, and art acquainted with all my ways.

³Ka pai leh ka lup non entel jela, ka omdan tengteng na thei vek hi.

⁴For there is not a word in my tongue, but, lo, O LORD, thou knowest it altogether.

⁴Ngaiin, Toupa aw, nang na theih siang vek louh, ka lei ah thu himhim a om kei hi.

⁵Thou hast beset me behind and before, and laid thine hand upon me.

⁵Nang ka nunglam leh ka mallamah non umsuaka, ka tungah na khut na koih lai hi.

⁶Such knowledge is too wonderful for me; it is high, I cannot attain unto it.

⁶Huchitela theihna kei dingin a lamdang lua a; a sang tela, ka pha zou kei hi.

⁷Whither shall I go from thy spirit? or whither shall I flee from thy presence?

⁷Na kha kiang akipanin koiah ka pai dia? Na ma akipan koiah ka tai mang dia?

⁸If I ascend up into heaven, thou art there: if I make my bed in hell, behold, thou art there.

⁸Van ah kahtou ning chileng, huaiah lah na om ngala: Sheol ah lupna bawl ning chileng ngaiin, huaiah leng na om jel ngala.

⁹If I take the wings of the morning, and dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea;

⁹Jing kha jakin, tuipi tawp pekah vaom ning chi leng;

¹⁰Even there shall thy hand lead me, and thy right hand shall hold me.

¹⁰Huaiah leng na khutin non pi dinga, na khut taklamin honlen ding ahi ngala.

¹¹If I say, Surely the darkness shall cover me; even the night shall be light about me.

¹¹Pellouin mialin honkhuh zouvek ding a, ka kima vak tuh jan ahi ding chi dek lengleng;

¹²Yea, the darkness hideth not from thee; but the night shineth as the day: the darkness and the light are both alike to thee.

¹²Mialin leng nang lakah bangmah a liah keia, jan lah sun bangin a vakjaw ahi: nang dingin mial leh vak a kibang salpsap hi.

¹³For thou hast possessed my reins: thou hast covered me in my mother's womb.

¹³Nangmah ngeiin ka lungsim na neia: ka nu gilsungah non phankhawm hi.

¹⁴I will praise thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made: marvellous are thy works; and that my soul knoweth right well.

¹⁴Na kiangah kipahthu kon hilh dinga; lauhuai tak leh lamdang pi-a bawl ka hih jiakin: na thilhihte lah lamdang tak ahi a; huai tuh ka hinnain a theitel mahmah hi.

¹⁵My substance was not hid from thee, when I was made in secret, and curiously wrought in the lowest parts of the earth.

¹⁵A guka bawla ka oma, lei mun nuainungpena kilawmtaka bawla ka om laiin, ka guh ka tang nang lakah selin a om kei hi.

¹⁶Thine eyes did see my substance, yet being unperfect; and in thy book all my members were written, which in continuance were fashioned, when as yet there was none of them.

¹⁶Ka lim kibawl kim nailou tuh na mitin a mu-a, na laibu ah ka hiangte tengteng gelh vek ahi, ani sima bawlin a om jela, khat leng a om nai louh laiin.

¹⁷How precious also are thy thoughts unto me, O God! how great is the sum of them!

¹⁷Pathian aw, na ngaihtuahnate kei adingin manpha hina tele! a gawmkhawmna thupi hina tele!

¹⁸If I should count them, they are more in number than the sand: when I awake, I am still with thee.

¹⁸Sim dek mahleng, a tamdan tuh piaunel sangin a tam zo ding: ka khanloh aleh, na kiangah ka om nilouh naknak ahi.

¹⁹Surely thou wilt slay the wicked, O God: depart from me therefore, ye bloody men.

¹⁹Pathian aw, mi gilou-saloute na thah ngei dinga; huchiin sisan suah hat miten honpaisan ding.

²⁰For they speak against thee wickedly, and thine enemies take thy name in vain.

²⁰Amau tuh gilou takin nang a hon gensia un, nangmah douten na min tuh a genthanghuai nak uhi.

²¹Do not I hate them, O LORD, that hate thee? and am not I grieved with those that rise up against thee?

²¹Toupa aw, nangmah hote ka ho kei ahia? Nangmah sualte tungah ka lung kim lou kei ahia?

²²I hate them with perfect hatred: I count them mine enemies.

²²Amau tuh huat petmahin ka huaa: hondoute dingin ka sep chiat hi.

²³Search me, O God, and know my heart: try me, and know my thoughts:

²³Pathian aw, ngentel takin honen suak inla, ka lungtang thei in: honchian inla, ka ngaihtuahnate thei in.Huan, kei ah gilou-salou lam mawngmawng a om hiam om lou, en inla, khantawn lampi ah honpi in.

²⁴And see if there be any wicked way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting.

²⁴Huan, kei ah gilou-salou lam mawngmawng a om hiam om lou, en inla, khantawn lampi ah honpi in.
