You're missing some glottal stops:

reH be'Hompu' ngeD chuch DItu'jaj
"May we always find them ices of easy girls."

Not sure what to make of this one.  :)  I think the biggest problem, aside
from perhaps /chuch/ not being what you wanted, is that "easy" in the
English phrase "easy woman" is not what /ngeD/ means.  It's an idiom in
English, so it doesn't really translate.

I don't have /pe'DIl/ in my dictionary.  Did you mean /pe'vIl/
"forcefully"?  "You mate with your dear mother forcefully."?

As far as the grammar goes, the latter is definitely correct grammar,
presuming /pe'DIl/ is, in fact, supposed to be the adverb /pe'vIl/.

Not sure what you were aiming for with the first one, to tell you how far
off you are.  :)
