< Psalms 120 >
1 [the] song of The ascents to Yahweh in distress of me I called out and he answered me.
Thaburi ya Agendi Ndakaĩire Jehova ndĩ mĩnyamaro-inĩ, nake akĩnjĩtĩka.
2 O Yahweh deliver! self my from a lip of falsehood from a tongue deceit.
Wee Jehova, honokia harĩ mĩromo ĩrĩa yaragia maheeni, na harĩ nĩmĩ iria iheenanagia.
3 What? will anyone give to you and what? will anyone add to you O tongue deceit.
Agaagwĩka atĩa, na nĩ atĩa ũngĩ makĩria ya ũguo, wee rũrĩmĩ rũrũ rũheenanagia?
4 Arrows of a warrior sharpened with burning coals of broom plants.
Agaakũherithia na mĩguĩ mĩnoore ya njamba ya ita, na makara marĩrĩmbũkĩte mwaki ma mũtĩ wa mũkoigo.
5 Woe! to me that I have sojourned Meshech I have dwelt with [the] tents of Kedar.
Kaĩ ndĩ na haaro-ĩ, nĩgũtũũra gũkũ Mesheki, na ngaikara hema-inĩ cia Kedari-ĩ!
6 Much it has dwelt itself self my with [one who] hates peace.
Nĩndũũrĩte hĩndĩ ndaaya gatagatĩ-inĩ ka arĩa mathũire thayũ.
7 I [am] peace and that I speak they [are] for war.
Niĩ ndĩ mũndũ wa thayũ; no rĩrĩa ndaaria-rĩ, o mendaga o mbaara.
