詩篇 120

1 上行（或譯登階，下同）之詩。 我在急難中求告耶和華， 他就應允我。

A song of ascents. In distress I cried to the Lord, and he answered me.

2 耶和華啊，求你救我脫離說謊的嘴唇和詭詐的舌頭！

“Deliver me, Lord, from the lip that is false and the tongue that is crafty.”

3 詭詐的舌頭啊，要給你甚麼呢？ 要拿甚麼加給你呢？

What shall he give to you, you tongue that is crafty? What yet shall he give to you?

4 就是勇士的利箭和羅騰木 的炭火。

Arrows of warrior, sharpened, with glowing broom coals together.

5 我寄居在米設， 住在基達帳棚之中，有禍了！

Woe is me that I sojourn in Meshech, that I live by the tents of Kedar.

6 我與那恨惡和睦的人許久同住。

Already too long have I dwelt among those who hate peace.

7 我願和睦， 但我發言，他們就要爭戰。

I am for peace: but when I speak of it, they are for war.
