Psalmi 120

1 Hodočasnička pjesma Kad bijah u nevolji, Jahvi zavapih i on me usliša.

A Song of Ascents. In my distress, I cried to the LORD. He answered me.

2 Jahve, izbavi dušu moju od usana prijevarnih, od zlobna jezika!

Deliver my soul, LORD, from lying lips, from a deceitful tongue.

3 Kojim zlom da te prokunem, zlobni jeziče?

What will be given to you, and what will be done more to you, you deceitful tongue?

4 Strelicama oštrim iz ratničke ruke i ugljevljem žarkim.

Sharp arrows of the mighty, with coals of juniper.

5 Jao meni što mi je boraviti u Mešeku i stanovati u šatorima kedarskim!

Woe is me, that I live in Meshech, that I dwell among the tents of Kedar!

6 Predugo mi duša mora živjeti s mrziteljima mira.

My soul has had her dwelling too long with him who hates peace.

7 Kada o miru govorim, oni sile na rat.

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