< Psalms 120 >

1 A song of ascents. In my distress I cried to the LORD, and He answered me.
Ke nga muta in ongoiya, nga pang nu sin LEUM GOD A El topukyu.
2 Deliver my soul, O LORD, from lying lips and a deceitful tongue.
LEUM GOD moliyula Liki mwet kikiap a mwet kutasrik.
3 What will He do to you, and what will be added to you, O deceitful tongue?
Kowos, mwet kikiap, mea God El a oru nu suwos? El a kai kowos fuka?
4 Sharp arrows will come from the warrior, with burning coals of the broom tree!
Ke sukan pisr kosro nutin sie mwet mweun, A mulut firir!
5 Woe to me that I dwell in Meshech, that I live among the tents of Kedar!
Ke nga muta inmasrlowos, arulana koluk oana nga in muta in acn Meshech Ku muta inmasrlon mwet Kedar.
6 Too long have I dwelt among those who hate peace.
Loesla pacl nga muta Inmasrlon mwet su srunga misla.
7 I am in favor of peace; but when I speak, they want war.
Ke pacl nga sramsram ke misla, Elos ac lungse mweun.
