¹Pathian aw, nang ka Pathian na hi a; jingsangpiin kon zong hi: ka hinna nangmah duhin a dangtaka, ka sain a honngai ahi, gam keu leh gim tui omlouhna ah.

¹O God, thou art my God; early will I seek thee: my soul thirsteth for thee, my flesh longeth for thee in a dry and thirsty land, where no water is;

²Huchimah bangin mun siangthou ah ka hon en gige hi, na thilhihtheihna leh na thupina mu dingin.

²To see thy power and thy glory, so as I have seen thee in the sanctuary.

³Na chitna ka hinna sanga a hoihjawk jiakin ka muk in a honphat ding hi.

³Because thy lovingkindness is better than life, my lips shall praise thee.

⁴Huchi mahbang in ka damsung tengin ka honphat ding: na minin ka khutte ka jak ding hi.

⁴Thus will I bless thee while I live: I will lift up my hands in thy name.

⁵Ka hinna tuh guhngek leh thaua tai bangin a tai dinga; ka min kipah muk puin a honphat ding hi.

⁵My soul shall be satisfied as with marrow and fatness; and my mouth shall praise thee with joyful lips:

⁶Ka lupna tunga kon theihgige laiin, jana na tungtang thu ka lunggel laiin.

⁶When I remember thee upon my bed, and meditate on thee in the night watches.

⁷Nang tuh honpanpihpa nahi ngala, na kha nuaiah nuamin la kasa ding hi.

⁷Because thou hast been my help, therefore in the shadow of thy wings will I rejoice.

⁸Ka hinna in honjui tetteta: na khut taklamin non kai jel hi.

⁸My soul followeth hard after thee: thy right hand upholdeth me.

⁹Ka hinna hihmang tuma zongte leimun nuainung ahte khawng a lut ding ua.

⁹But those that seek my soul, to destroy it, shall go into the lower parts of the earth.

¹⁰Namsau thilhihtheihna kiangah piak ahi ding uhi: sehalte tan a hita ding uhi.Kumpipa bel Pathian ah a nuam dinga: amah lou a kichiam peuhmah in a suang ding ua, juauthu gen hat kamte tuh huma om ding ahih jiak in.

¹⁰They shall fall by the sword: they shall be a portion for foxes.

¹¹Kumpipa bel Pathian ah a nuam dinga: amah lou a kichiam peuhmah in a suang ding ua, juauthu gen hat kamte tuh huma om ding ahih jiak in.

¹¹But the king shall rejoice in God; every one that sweareth by him shall glory: but the mouth of them that speak lies shall be stopped.
