Psalm 123

1 LEUM GOD nga ngetak nu sum, Nu inkusrao yen kom leum we.

“A song of the degrees.” Unto thee do I lift up my eyes, O thou that dwellest in the heavens.

2 Oana sie mwet kulansap su likiya lulalfongi lal sin leum lal, A oana sie mutan kulansap su likiya lulalfongi lal sin mutan kaato lal, Ouinge kut nget nu sum pacl nukewa, O LEUM GOD lasr, Nwe ke kom akkalemye pakomuta lom nu sesr.

Behold, as the eyes of servants are directed unto the hand of their masters, as the eyes of a maiden unto the hand of her mistress: thus are our eyes directed unto the Lord our God, until he be gracious unto us.

3 Pakomutasr, LEUM GOD, pakomutasr, Tuh yoklana kwaseyasr.

Be gracious unto us, O Lord! be gracious unto us; for we are overburdened with contempt.

4 Loesla pacl aksruksrukyeyuk kut sin mwet kasrup, A akkeokyeyuk kut sin mwet inse fulat.

Our soul is overburdened with the scorn of those who are at ease, with the contempt of the proud oppressors.
