Psalms 120

1 A Song of Ascents. In my distress I called unto the LORD, and He answered me.

١ تَرْنِيمَةُ ٱلْمَصَاعِدِ إِلَى ٱلرَّبِّ فِي ضِيْقِي صَرَخْتُ فَٱسْتَجَابَ لِي.

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

٢ يَارَبُّ، نَجِّ نَفْسِي مِنْ شِفَاهِ ٱلْكَذِبِ، مِنْ لِسَانِ غِشٍّ.

3 What shall be given unto thee, and what shall be done more unto thee, thou deceitful tongue?

٣ مَاذَا يُعْطِيكَ وَمَاذَا يَزِيدُ لَكَ لِسَانُ ٱلْغِشِّ؟

4 Sharp arrows of the mighty, with coals of broom.

٤ سِهَامَ جَبَّارٍ مَسْنُونَةً مَعَ جَمْرِ ٱلرَّتَمِ.

5 Woe is me, that I sojourn with Meshech, that I dwell beside the tents of Kedar!

٥ وَيْلِي لِغُرْبَتِي فِي مَاشِكَ، لِسَكَنِي فِي خِيَامِ قِيدَارَ!

6 My soul hath full long had her dwelling with him that hateth peace.

٦ طَالَ عَلَى نَفْسِي سَكَنُهَا مَعَ مُبْغِضِ ٱلسَّلَامِ.

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

٧ أَنَا سَلَامٌ، وَحِينَمَا أَتَكَلَّمُ فَهُمْ لِلْحَرْبِ.
