Psalms 120

1 A Song of the going up. In my trouble my cry went up to the Lord, and he gave me an answer.

Tangtlaeng Laa Kamah kah citcai khuiah BOEIPA te ka khue tih kai n'doo.

2 O Lord, be the saviour of my soul from false lips, and from the tongue of deceit.

BOEIPA aw ka hinglu he laithae hmuilai lamkah neh palyal ol lamloh huul lah.

3 What punishment will he give you? what more will he do to you, you false tongue?

Palyal ol te nang taengah bahamnim m'paek vetih bahamnim nang taengah hang koei eh?

4 Sharp arrows of the strong, and burning fire.

Hlangrhalh kah thaltang khaw hlingcet alh bangla sum yipkip.

5 Sorrow is mine because I am strange in Meshech, and living in the tents of Kedar.

Meshek ah ka bakuep tih Kedar dap ah kho ka sak dongah kai ngawn tah ka tuisawih coeng!

6 My soul has long been living with the haters of peace.

Rhoepnah aka hmuhuet taengah ka hinglu loh kho puet a sak coeng.

7 I am for peace: but when I say so, they are for war.

Kai loh rhoepnah ka thui vaengah amih te caemtloek la thoouh.
