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 to the LORD. He answered me.

2 LEUM GOD moliyula Liki mwet kikiap a mwet kutasrik.

Deliver my soul, LORD, from lying lips, from a deceitful tongue.

3 Kowos, mwet kikiap, mea God El a oru nu suwos? El a kai kowos fuka?

What will be given to you, and what will be done more to you, you 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 live in Meshech, that I dwell amongst the tents of Kedar!

6 Loesla pacl nga muta Inmasrlon mwet su srunga misla.

My soul has had her dwelling too long with him who hates peace.

7 Ke pacl nga sramsram ke misla, Elos ac lungse mweun.

I am for peace, but when I speak, they are for war.
