Douay-Rheims Bible, American Edition (1899)
1Aw Angraeng, palungthin boih hoiah nang to kang pakoeh han; sithawnawk hmaa ah nang pakoehhaih laa to ka sak han.
1Lord, thou hast proved me, and known me:
2Kaciim na tempul bang khet hoiah nang to kang bok moe, nam lunghaih hoi na oepthohhaih pongah na hmin to ka pakoeh han; nangmah ih ahmin rang hoiah na lok to hmuennawk boih pong kasang kue ah nam tuengsak boeh.
2Thou hast know my sitting down, and my rising up.
3Kang kawkhaih niah kai han nang pathim moe, palung thungah tha nang ohsak.
3Thou hast understood my thoughts afar off: my path and my line thou hast searched out.
4Aw Angraeng, long nui ih siangpahrangnawk boih mah na thuih ih lok to thaih o naah, nang to saphaw o tih.
4And thou hast foreseen all my ways: for there is no speech in my tongue.
5Ue, Angraeng lensawkhaih loe len parai pongah, Angraeng ih loklamnawk to pazui o ueloe, laa to sah o tih.
5Behold, O Lord, thou hast known all things, the last and those of old: thou hast formed me, and hast laid thy hand upon me.
6Angraeng loe hmuensang ah oh; toe poeknaemhaih tawn kaminawk to anih mah khet; amoek kaminawk loe ahmuen kangthla hoiah anih mah panoek boeh.
6Thy knowledge is become wonderful to me: it is high, and I cannot reach to it.
7Raihaih thungah caeh cadoeh, nang hingsak tih; ka misanawk palungphuihaih to pakaa hanah na ban to payangh ueloe, na bantang ban hoiah na pahlong tih.
7Whither shall I go from thy spirit? or whither shall I flee from thy face?
8Angraeng mah sak atimhaih to kai hanah akoepsak tih; Aw Angraeng; na tahmenhaih loe dungzan khoek to cak; na ban hoi sak ih hmuennawk to pahnawt sut hmah.
8If I ascend into heaven, thou art there: if I descend into hell, thou art present.
