< Psalms 120 >
1 A Song of Ascents. In my distress I called unto the LORD, and He answered me.
Waƙar haurawa. Na yi kira ga Ubangiji cikin damuwata, ya kuwa amsa mini.
2 O LORD, deliver my soul from lying lips, from a deceitful tongue.
Ka cece ni, ya Ubangiji, daga leɓuna masu ƙarya da kuma daga harsuna masu yaudara.
3 What shall be given unto thee, and what shall be done more unto thee, thou deceitful tongue?
Me zai yi maka, me kuma ya fi, ya kai harshe mai yaudara?
4 Sharp arrows of the mighty, with coals of broom.
Zai hukunta ku da kibiyoyi masu tsini na jarumi, tare da garwashin wuta na itacen tsintsiya.
5 Woe is me, that I sojourn with Meshech, that I dwell beside the tents of Kedar!
Kaitona da nake zama a Meshek, da nake zama a ciki tentunan Kedar!
6 My soul hath full long had her dwelling with him that hateth peace.
Da daɗewa na zauna a cikin waɗanda suke ƙin salama.
7 I am all peace; but when I speak, they are for war.
Ni mutum ne mai salama; amma sa’ad da na yi magana, su sai su yi ta yaƙi.
