Psalms 120

1 A Song of Ascents. In my distress I cried unto the LORD, and he answered me.

Tangtlaeng Laa Kamah kah citcai khuiah BOEIPA te ka khue tih kai n'doo.

2 Deliver my soul, O LORD, from lying lips, [and] from a deceitful tongue.

BOEIPA aw ka hinglu he laithae hmuilai lamkah neh palyal ol lamloh huul lah.

3 What shall be given unto thee, and what shall be done more unto thee, thou deceitful tongue?

Palyal ol te nang taengah bahamnim m'paek vetih bahamnim nang taengah hang koei eh?

4 Sharp arrows of the mighty, with coals of juniper.

Hlangrhalh kah thaltang khaw hlingcet alh bangla sum yipkip.

5 Woe is me, that I sojourn in Meshech, that I dwell among the tents of Kedar!

Meshek ah ka bakuep tih Kedar dap ah kho ka sak dongah kai ngawn tah ka tuisawih coeng!

6 My soul hath long had her dwelling with him that hateth peace.

Rhoepnah aka hmuhuet taengah ka hinglu loh kho puet a sak coeng.

7 I am [for] peace: but when I speak, they are for war.

Kai loh rhoepnah ka thui vaengah amih te caemtloek la thoouh.
