Psalms 120

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

Fihirana fiakarana.

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

Jehovah ô, vonjeo ny fanahiko amin’ ny molotra mandainga, Eny, amin’ ny lela mamitaka

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

Inona no homeny anao, ary inona koa no hataony aminao, Ry lela mamitaka?

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

Zana-tsipìkan’ ny mahery sady voaranitra, Mbamin’ ny vain’ afon’ anjavidy.

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

Lozako, fa mivahiny eto amin’ ny Maseka aho Ary mitoetra ato an-dain’ ny Kedarita!

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

Ela loatra izay no nitoeran’ ny fanahiko teo amin’ Izay tsy tia fihavanana.

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

Raha izaho, dia fihavanana; Kanjo nony miteny aho, dia mila ady kosa ireny.
