Psalms 120

1 A Song of Ascents. Unto Yahweh, in the distress that befell me, I cried—and he answered me.

Iti pakarigatak immawagak kenni Yahweh, ket sinungbatannak.

2 O Yahweh! rescue thou my soul—from the false lip, from the deceitful tongue.

Ispalem ti biagko, O Yahweh, kadagiti agul-ulbod kadagiti bibigda ken mangal-allilaw kadagiti dilada.

3 What shall be given to thee, and what shall be added to thee, thou deceitful tongue?

Anianto ti panangdusana kadakayo, ken anianto pay ngata ti aramidenna kadakayo, dakayo nga addaan iti naulbod a dila?

4 The arrows of the hero sharpened, with burning coals of broom.

Panaennakayonto iti natirad a pana ti mannakigubat, a napanday manipud iti dumardarang a beggang iti enebro.

5 Woe is me, That I sojourn in Meshek, —That I abide near the tents of Kedar!

Asiak pay gapu ta nagnaedak iti apagbiit idiay Mesek; nagnaedak idi kadagiti tolda ti Kedar.

6 Long, hath my soul had her dwelling with him that hateth peace:

Ta nabayag a nakipagnaedak kadagiti manggur-gura iti kapia.

7 I, am for peace, and verily I speak, They, are for war!

Kayatko ti kapia, ngem no agsaoak, gubat ti kayatda.
