< Psalms 120 >

1 A Song of the going up. In my trouble my cry went up to the Lord, and he gave me an answer.
Ke nga muta in ongoiya, nga pang nu sin LEUM GOD A El topukyu.
2 O Lord, be the saviour of my soul from false lips, and from the tongue of deceit.
LEUM GOD moliyula Liki mwet kikiap a mwet kutasrik.
3 What punishment will he give you? what more will he do to you, you false tongue?
Kowos, mwet kikiap, mea God El a oru nu suwos? El a kai kowos fuka?
4 Sharp arrows of the strong, and burning fire.
Ke sukan pisr kosro nutin sie mwet mweun, A mulut firir!
5 Sorrow is mine because I am strange in Meshech, and living in the tents of Kedar.
Ke nga muta inmasrlowos, arulana koluk oana nga in muta in acn Meshech Ku muta inmasrlon mwet Kedar.
6 My soul has long been living with the haters of peace.
Loesla pacl nga muta Inmasrlon mwet su srunga misla.
7 I am for peace: but when I say so, they are for war.
Ke pacl nga sramsram ke misla, Elos ac lungse mweun.
