¹Ka naupan chik akipan min tamveipi honmangbangsak ua. Israelten chi uhen:

¹Many times they have afflicted me from my youth up. Let Israel now say,

²Ka naupan chik akipan min tamveipi honmangbangsak ua: himahleh hon zou tuan kei ua.

²many times they have afflicted me from my youth up, yet they have not prevailed against me.

³Leiletten ka nungjang ah lei a let ua; a leileh kuangte uh a sausak ngial uhi.

³The plowers plowed on my back. They made their furrows long.

⁴Toupa a diktat ahi: mi gilou- saloute khauhualte tuh a at tatta a: chiin.

⁴Yahweh is righteous. He has cut apart the cords of the wicked.

⁵Amau zahlak leh taijak sakin om uhen, Zion hote tengteng mah.

⁵Let them be disappointed and turned backward, all those who hate Zion.

⁶A khansang maa vuai maimah jel, in tunga loupa bangin om uhen:

⁶Let them be as the grass on the housetops, which withers before it grows up;

⁷Huai loupain buh atmin a khut a hihdim ngei keia, buhphal tel khawm-min leng a angsung a hihdim ngei sam kei hi.Toupa vualjawlna na tunguah om hen: Toupa minin vual hon jawl uhi, a paikhenmiten a chi ngal sam kei uhi.

⁷with which the reaper doesn’t fill his hand, nor he who binds sheaves, his bosom.

⁸Toupa vualjawlna na tunguah om hen: Toupa minin vual hon jawl uhi, a paikhenmiten a chi ngal sam kei uhi.

⁸Neither do those who go by say, “The blessing of Yahweh be on you. We bless you in the name of Yahweh.”
