Psalms 120

1 A Song of Degrees. In mine affliction I cried to the Lord, and he listened to me.

[the] song of The ascents to Yahweh in distress of me I called out and he answered me.

2 Deliver my soul, O Lord, from unjust lips, and from a deceitful tongue.

O Yahweh deliver! self my from a lip of falsehood from a tongue deceit.

3 What should be given to you, and what should be added to you, for [your] crafty tongue?

What? will anyone give to you and what? will anyone add to you O tongue deceit.

4 Sharpened weapons of the mighty, with coals of the desert.

Arrows of a warrior sharpened with burning coals of broom plants.

5 Woe is me, that my sojourning is prolonged; I have tabernacled among the tents of Kedar.

Woe! to me that I have sojourned Meshech I have dwelt with [the] tents of Kedar.

6 My soul has long been a sojourner;

Much it has dwelt itself self my with [one who] hates peace.

7 I was peaceful among them that hated peace; when I spoke to them, they warred against me without a cause.

I [am] peace and that I speak they [are] for war.
