Psalms 120

1 A song of ascents. In my distress I cried to the LORD, and He answered me.

Ka Gospodu zavikah u nevolji svojoj, i usliši me.

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

Gospode! izbavi dušu moju od usta lažljivijeh i od jezika lukavoga.

3 What will He do to you, and what will be added to you, O deceitful tongue?

Šta æe ti dati i šta æe ti prinijeti jezik lukavi?

4 Sharp arrows will come from the warrior, with burning coals of the broom tree!

On je kao oštre strijele u jakoga, kao ugljevlje smrekovo.

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

Teško meni kad sam tuðin kod Meseha, živim kod šatora Kidarskih.

6 Too long have I dwelt among those who hate peace.

Dugo je živjela duša moja s onima koji mrze na mir.

7 I am in favor of peace; but when I speak, they want war.

Ja sam miran; ali kad stanem govoriti, u njih je rat.
