“He reached down from on high and took hold of me; he drew me out of deep waters.” is written မၢလီၤဝဲ လၢတၢ်ထီၣ်ထီ ဟံးန့ၢ်ထီၣ်ယၤ ထုးထီၣ်ယၤ လၢထံဒိၣ် အကျါလီၤ in Sgaw Karen, read in a rough way as muh lāw weh luh ta htàw htaw hëe nay htàw yā htü htàw yā luh htee dòh a klah lāw. Knyaw helps you read and understand words, not say them out loud. Karen is a tone language, so the English-letter sounds are only a rough help.
