Psalms 120

1 A Song of Ascents. Unto Yahweh, in the distress that befell me, I cried—and he answered me.

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

2 O Yahweh! rescue thou my soul—from the false lip, from the deceitful tongue.

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

3 What shall be given to thee, and what shall be added to thee, thou deceitful tongue?

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

4 The arrows of the hero sharpened, with burning coals of broom.

Hlangrhalh kah thaltang khaw hlingcet alh bangla sum yipkip.

5 Woe is me, That I sojourn in Meshek, —That I abide near the tents of Kedar!

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

6 Long, hath my soul had her dwelling with him that hateth peace:

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

7 I, am for peace, and verily I speak, They, are for war!

Kai loh rhoepnah ka thui vaengah amih te caemtloek la thoo uh.
