詩篇 120

1 我受難時一呼求上主，祂就俯聽了我的呼求。

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

2 上主，求您救我脫離說謊者的口脣，上主，求您救我擺脫詭詐的舌根。

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

3 您這詭詐的口舌，究竟怎樣對待付您？究竟怎樣懲治您？

What should be given to thee, and what should be added to thee, for [thy] crafty tongue?

4 只有勇士的矢箭，還有杜松的火炭！

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

5 我真不幸! 因為要在默舍客居住，要在刻達爾的帳幕寄宿。

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

6 因與憎惡和平的人相處，我的靈魂已經感到太久。

My soul has long been a sojourner;

7 我言談無非和平，他們卻鼓勵戰爭。

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