Psalms 120

1 “A song of the degrees.” Unto the Lord, when I was in distress, did I call, and he hath answered me.

Na minha angústia clamei ao Senhor, e me ouviu.

2 O Lord, deliver my soul from lips of falsehood, and from a tongue of deceit.

Senhor, livra a minha alma dos lábios mentirosos e da língua enganadora.

3 What will [God] give unto thee? or what will he add unto thee, thou tongue of deceit?

Que te será dado, ou que te será acrescentado, língua enganadora?

4 Sharpened arrows of the mighty, with coals of the broom-bush.

Flechas agudas do valente, com brazas vivas de zimbro.

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

Ai de mim, que peregrino em Mesech, e habito nas tendas de Kedar.

6 Too long for herself hath my soul dwelt with him that hateth peace.

A minha alma bastante tempo habitou com os que detestam a paz.

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

Pacífico sou, porém quando eu falo já eles procuram guerra.
