< Psalm 120 >

1 Ke nga muta in ongoiya, nga pang nu sin LEUM GOD A El topukyu.
A Song of Ascents. In my distress I cried unto the LORD, and he answered me.
2 LEUM GOD moliyula Liki mwet kikiap a mwet kutasrik.
Deliver my soul, O LORD, from lying lips, [and] from a deceitful tongue.
3 Kowos, mwet kikiap, mea God El a oru nu suwos? El a kai kowos fuka?
What shall be given unto thee, and what shall be done more unto thee, thou deceitful tongue?
4 Ke sukan pisr kosro nutin sie mwet mweun, A mulut firir!
Sharp arrows of the mighty, with coals of juniper.
5 Ke nga muta inmasrlowos, arulana koluk oana nga in muta in acn Meshech Ku muta inmasrlon mwet Kedar.
Woe is me, that I sojourn in Meshech, that I dwell among the tents of Kedar!
6 Loesla pacl nga muta Inmasrlon mwet su srunga misla.
My soul hath long had her dwelling with him that hateth peace.
7 Ke pacl nga sramsram ke misla, Elos ac lungse mweun.
I am [for] peace: but when I speak, they are for war.
