اَلْمَزَامِيرُ 120

١ 1 تَرْنِيمَةُ ٱلْمَصَاعِدِ إِلَى ٱلرَّبِّ فِي ضِيْقِي صَرَخْتُ فَٱسْتَجَابَ لِي.

A Song of Degrees. In mine affliction I cried to the Lord, and he listened to me.

٢ 2 يَارَبُّ، نَجِّ نَفْسِي مِنْ شِفَاهِ ٱلْكَذِبِ، مِنْ لِسَانِ غِشٍّ.

Deliver my soul, O Lord, from unjust lips, and from a deceitful tongue.

٣ 3 مَاذَا يُعْطِيكَ وَمَاذَا يَزِيدُ لَكَ لِسَانُ ٱلْغِشِّ؟

What should be given to you, and what should be added to you, for [your] crafty tongue?

٤ 4 سِهَامَ جَبَّارٍ مَسْنُونَةً مَعَ جَمْرِ ٱلرَّتَمِ.

Sharpened weapons of the mighty, with coals of the desert.

٥ 5 وَيْلِي لِغُرْبَتِي فِي مَاشِكَ، لِسَكَنِي فِي خِيَامِ قِيدَارَ!

Woe is me, that my sojourning is prolonged; I have tabernacled amongst the tents of Kedar.

٦ 6 طَالَ عَلَى نَفْسِي سَكَنُهَا مَعَ مُبْغِضِ ٱلسَّلَامِ.

My soul has long been a sojourner;

٧ 7 أَنَا سَلَامٌ، وَحِينَمَا أَتَكَلَّمُ فَهُمْ لِلْحَرْبِ.

I was peaceful amongst them that hated peace; when I spoke to them, they warred against me without a cause.
