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 Ascents. Unto Yahweh, in the distress that befell me, I cried—and he answered 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。

O Yahweh! rescue thou my soul—from the false lip, from the 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 shall be given to thee, and what shall be added to thee, thou deceitful tongue?

4 只有勇士的矢箭，還有杜松的火炭！

The arrows of the hero sharpened, with burning coals of broom.

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 I sojourn in Meshek, —That I abide near 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。

Long, hath my soul had her dwelling with him that hateth peace:

7 我言談無非和平，他們卻鼓勵戰爭。

I, am for peace, and verily I speak, They, are for war!
