¹Praise Yahweh! Give thanks to Yahweh, for he is good, for his loving kindness endures forever.

¹TOUPA tuh phat un, Aw, TOUPA kiangah kipahthu hilh un; amah lah a hoih ngala: a chitna leng khantawna om ding ahi ngala.

²Who can utter the mighty acts of Yahweh, or fully declare all his praise?

²Kua ahia TOUPA thilhih thupitakte gen theia a phatna tengteng theisak vek thei?

³Blessed are those who keep justice. Blessed is one who does what is right at all times.

³Vaihawmna kem hoihten nuam a sa uhi, chiklai peuha leng diktat taka hihmi toh.

⁴Remember me, Yahweh, with the favor that you show to your people. Visit me with your salvation,

⁴TOUPA aw, na mite na deihsaknain hontheigige inla, aw, na hotdamna toh hongvehin;

⁵that I may see the prosperity of your chosen, that I may rejoice in the gladness of your nation, that I may glory with your inheritance.

⁵Na mi telte hamphatna ka muhtheiha, na namte kipahna ah ka nopsak theiha, na gouluahte toh ka suan theihna dingin.

⁶We have sinned with our fathers. We have committed iniquity. We have done wickedly.

⁶Ka pipute utoh thil ka na hihkhial ua, thilgilou ka hih ua, gilou takinka hihta uhi.

⁷Our fathers didn’t understand your wonders in Egypt. They didn’t remember the multitude of your loving kindnesses, but were rebellious at the sea, even at the Red Sea or, Sea of Reeds .

⁷Ka pipute un Aigupta gama na thillamdang hihte a theisiam kei ua; na chitna thupitak a theigige ta kei ua; tuipi ah a hel zota ua, Tuipi San ah.

⁸Nevertheless he saved them for his name’s sake, that he might make his mighty power known.

⁸Huchi pipiin leng a mah minjiakin amau a hondamtaa, a thilhihtheihna thupitak a theihsakna dingin.

⁹He rebuked the Red Sea or, Sea of Reeds also, and it was dried up; so he led them through the depths, as through a desert.

⁹Tuipi San a taia, huchiin a kangta a; huan amau gamdaia pi paisuak bangin tui thukte ah a pi paisuakta hi.

¹⁰He saved them from the hand of him who hated them, and redeemed them from the hand of the enemy.

¹⁰Amau homi khut akipan a hondama, melma khut akipan a tanta hi.

¹¹The waters covered their adversaries. There was not one of them left.

¹¹Tuiten amau doute a khuh khina, khat leng dama pawt a om ta kei uhi.

¹²Then they believed his words. They sang his praise.

¹²Huai laiin a thute a gingta ua; a phatna la a sa uhi.

¹³They soon forgot his works. They didn’t wait for his counsel,

¹³Himahleh a thilhihte tuh a mangngilh zok ua; a lunggelna tuh a ngak ngamta kei uhi;

¹⁴but gave in to craving in the desert, and tested God in the wasteland.

¹⁴Gamdai ah thil a lungulh mahmah ua, gam keu ah Pathian a zeetta uhi.

¹⁵He gave them their request, but sent leanness into their soul.

¹⁵A thil nget uh a pia a; himahleh a hinna uah gawnna a lutsakta hi.

¹⁶They envied Moses also in the camp, and Aaron, Yahweh’s saint.

¹⁶A giah mun uah Mosi a hazata ua, TOUPA mi siangthou Aron toh.

¹⁷The earth opened and swallowed up Dathan, and covered the company of Abiram.

¹⁷Lei tuh a kamkaa, Dathan a valhta, Abiram pawlte tuh a khuh khinvek hi.

¹⁸A fire was kindled in their company. The flame burned up the wicked.

¹⁸A pawl lak uah mei hihkuanin a hongoma, meikuang ah mi gilousaloute a kangmangta uhi.

¹⁹They made a calf in Horeb, and worshiped a molten image.

¹⁹Horeb tang ah bawngnou lim a siam ua, a lim sun tuh a beta uhi.

²⁰Thus they exchanged their glory for an image of a bull that eats grass.

²⁰Huchibangin a thupina uh bawngtal loupa ne bangphet a suaksakta uhi.

²¹They forgot God, their Savior, who had done great things in Egypt,

²¹Pathian a hondampa uh a mangngilhta ua, Aigupta gama thil thupi taktak.

²²Wondrous works in the land of Ham, and awesome things by the Red Sea or, Sea of Reeds .

²²Ham gama thillamdangte, Tuipi San dung athil mulkimhuaite hihte.

²³Therefore he said that he would destroy them, had Moses, his chosen, not stood before him in the breach, to turn away his wrath, so that he wouldn’t destroy them.

²³Huaijiakin, a hihmang kha dinga, chi-a, a hehna hihkik dingin a mi tel Mosi tuh a lutna dingah a maah na ding kei ngial le houh, a hihmang ding chih a gen hi.

²⁴Yes, they despised the pleasant land. They didn’t believe his word,

²⁴A hi, gam deihhuai tak a ngaineu ua, a thu tuh a gingta nuam kei ua;

²⁵but murmured in their tents, and didn’t listen to Yahweh’s voice.

²⁵A puanin uahte khawng a phun zota ua, TOUPA aw tuh a ngaikhe nuam kei uhi.

²⁶Therefore he swore to them that he would overthrow them in the wilderness,

²⁶Huaijiakin amau lamah a khut ajaka, amaute tuh gamdaia a hihpukna ding leh,

²⁷that he would overthrow their seed among the nations, and scatter them in the lands.

²⁷A chi suan dingte uh nam chih laka a hihpuka, gam china a hihjakna dingin.

²⁸They joined themselves also to Baal Peor, and ate the sacrifices of the dead.

²⁸Boal-peor lamah a velh ua, misi kianga thil latte tuh a ne samta uhi.

²⁹Thus they provoked him to anger with their deeds. The plague broke in on them.

²⁹Huchibangin a thilhihte un amah a hihheh ua; huchiin a tunguah hi honlengta hi.

³⁰Then Phinehas stood up, and executed judgment, so the plague was stopped.

³⁰Huai laiin Phinehas a dinga, vai a hawma: huchiin hi tuh daihsakin a omta hi.

³¹That was credited to him for righteousness, for all generations to come.

³¹Huai tuh amah tunga diktatnaa seh ahi, khantawnin suan tengteng tanin.

³²They angered him also at the waters of Meribah, so that Moses was troubled for their sakes;

³²Meribah tuite ah tekhawng leng amah a hihheh ua, huchiin amau jiakin Mosi tungah thilhoihlou a tung hialta hi.

³³because they were rebellious against his spirit, he spoke rashly with his lips.

³³A kha tungah a hel ua, a mukin kilawmlou pi thu a gen jiakin;

³⁴They didn’t destroy the peoples, as Yahweh commanded them,

³⁴TOUPAN a kiang ua hihman thu a piak bangin mipite a hihmang kei ua.

³⁵but mixed themselves with the nations, and learned their works.

³⁵Nam chih tuh a kihelpih ua, a thilhihte uh tuh a ching jaw ua;

³⁶They served their idols, which became a snare to them.

³⁶A milim nate khawng uh a sem ua; huaite tuh amau adingin thang a honghita:

³⁷A hi, dawi kiangah tekhawng a tapate a tanute un a kithoih ua.

³⁸They shed innocent blood, even the blood of their sons and of their daughters, whom they sacrificed to the idols of Canaan. The land was polluted with blood.

³⁸Sisan gensiatbei, a tapate uleh a tanute u sisan ngei a suahta ua, huaitein Kanaan gam milimte kiangah a kithoih uhi; huai gam tuh sisanin a na ninta hi.

³⁹Thus were they defiled with their works, and prostituted themselves in their deeds.

³⁹Huchibangin a nasepte ua hihbuahin a om ua, a thilhihte un ang a kawmta uhi.

⁴⁰Therefore Yahweh burned with anger against his people. He abhorred his inheritance.

⁴⁰Huaijiakin TOUPA a mit tungah a thangpaitaa, a gouluah tuh a kih hi.

⁴¹He gave them into the hand of the nations. Those who hated them ruled over them.

⁴¹Huchiin amau tuh nam chihkhut ah a paia; amau hoten a tunguah vai a hawmta uhi.

⁴²Their enemies also oppressed them. They were brought into subjection under their hand.

⁴²Amau douten a nuaisiah ua, a khut nuai uah hihneuin a omta uhi.

⁴³Many times he delivered them, but they were rebellious in their counsel, and were brought low in their iniquity.

⁴³Tamveipi amau a humbita; himahleh a lunggelna uah a hel nak uhi, a gitlou a satlouhna uah hihniamin aomta uhi.

⁴⁴Nevertheless he regarded their distress, when he heard their cry.

⁴⁴Huchi pipiin leng aman, a kikou husa uh a jain, a mangbat uh a limsak ahi.

⁴⁵He remembered for them his covenant, and repented according to the multitude of his loving kindnesses.

⁴⁵A thukhun tuh amau a theisak gigea a chitna thupidan bang jelin alungsim a kisikta hi.

⁴⁶He made them also to be pitied by all those who carried them captive.

⁴⁶Sala pite tengteng tuh amau a hehpihsak hi.

⁴⁷Save us, Yahweh, our God, gather us from among the nations, to give thanks to your holy name, to triumph in your praise!

⁴⁷TOUPA ka Pathian u-aw, honhondam inla, nam chih laka kipan honpikhawmin, na min siangthou phat ding leh na phatna suang dingin.TOUPA, Israelte Pathian, phatin om heh, khantawn akipan khantawn phain leng. Mi tengtengin, Amen, chi uhen, TOUPA tuh phat un.

⁴⁸Blessed be Yahweh, the God of Israel, from everlasting even to everlasting! Let all the people say, “Amen.” Praise Yah! BOOK V

⁴⁸TOUPA, Israelte Pathian, phatin om heh, khantawn akipan khantawn phain leng. Mi tengtengin, Amen, chi uhen, TOUPA tuh phat un.
