< Psalms 120 >
1 A Song of Ascents. Unto Yahweh, in the distress that befell me, I cried—and he answered me.
Na minha angústia clamei ao Senhor, e me ouviu.
2 O Yahweh! rescue thou my soul—from the false lip, from the deceitful tongue.
Senhor, livra a minha alma dos lábios mentirosos e da língua enganadora.
3 What shall be given to thee, and what shall be added to thee, thou deceitful tongue?
Que te será dado, ou que te será acrescentado, língua enganadora?
4 The arrows of the hero sharpened, with burning coals of broom.
Flechas agudas do valente, com brazas vivas de zimbro.
5 Woe is me, That I sojourn in Meshek, —That I abide near the tents of Kedar!
Ai de mim, que peregrino em Mesech, e habito nas tendas de Kedar.
6 Long, hath my soul had her dwelling with him that hateth peace:
A minha alma bastante tempo habitou com os que detestam a paz.
7 I, am for peace, and verily I speak, They, are for war!
Pacífico sou, porém quando eu falo já eles procuram guerra.
