Psalms 120

1 In my trouble I cried to the Lord: and he heard me.

我受難時一呼求上主，祂就俯聽了我的呼求。

2 O Lord, deliver my soul from wicked lips, and a deceitful tongue.

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。

3 What shall be given to thee, or what shall be added to thee, to a deceitful tongue.

您這詭詐的口舌，究竟怎樣對待付您？究竟怎樣懲治您？

4 The sharp arrows of the mighty, with coals that lay waste.

只有勇士的矢箭，還有杜松的火炭！

5 Woe is me, that my sojourning is prolonged! I have dwelt with the inhabitants of cedar:

我真不幸! 因為要在默舍客居住，要在刻達爾的帳幕寄宿。

6 My soul hath been long a sojourner.

因與憎惡和平的人相處，我的靈魂已經感到太久。

7 With them that hate peace I was peaceable: when I spoke to them they fought against me without cause.

我言談無非和平，他們卻鼓勵戰爭。
