Psalms 129

1 Many a time have they afflicted me from my youth, may Israel now say:

Israel, srumun luman akkeok lun mwet lokoalok nu suwos Oe ke kowos fusr ah me.

2 Many a time have they afflicted me from my youth: yet they have not prevailed against me.

“Oe ke nga fusr ah me nwe inge, Mwet lokoalok luk elos akkeokyeyu arulana upa, Tusruktu elos tiana kutangyula.

3 The plowers plowed upon my back: they made long their furrows.

Elos kanteya fintukuk arulana loal Oana ke elos pikin acn in orek ima lalos uh.

4 The LORD is righteous: he has cut asunder the cords of the wicked.

Tusruktu LEUM GOD, su arulana suwoswos, El aksukosokyeyula liki moul in kohs.”

5 Let them all be confounded and turned back that hate Zion.

Lela tuh elos nukewa su srunga Zion In kutangyukla ac lillilyak.

6 Let them be as the grass upon the housetops, which withers before it grows up:

Lela tuh elos in oana mah su yoki oan fin mangon lohm uh, Su paola ac tia ku in kapak.

7 Wherewith the mower fills not his hand; nor he that binds sheaves his bosom.

Wangin mwet sifelosyak inpaolos, Ku losani ac usla.

8 Neither do they which go by say, The blessing of the LORD be upon you: we bless you in the name of the LORD.

Wangin mwet su fahsr alukela acn se inge fah fahk, “Lela God Elan akinsewowoye kom! Kut akinsewowoye kom ke Inen LEUM GOD.”
