< Psalms 120 >

1 [the] song of The ascents to Yahweh in distress of me I called out and he answered me.
שִׁ֗יר הַֽמַּ֫עֲלֹ֥ות אֶל־יְ֭הוָה בַּצָּרָ֣תָה לִּ֑י קָ֝רָ֗אתִי וֽ͏ַיַּעֲנֵֽנִי׃
2 O Yahweh deliver! self my from a lip of falsehood from a tongue deceit.
יְֽהוָ֗ה הַצִּ֣ילָה נַ֭פְשִׁי מִשְּׂפַת־שֶׁ֑קֶר מִלָּשֹׁ֥ון רְמִיָּֽה׃
3 What? will anyone give to you and what? will anyone add to you O tongue deceit.
מַה־יִּתֵּ֣ן לְ֭ךָ וּמַה־יֹּסִ֥יף לָ֗ךְ לָשֹׁ֥ון רְמִיָּֽה׃
4 Arrows of a warrior sharpened with burning coals of broom plants.
חִצֵּ֣י גִבֹּ֣ור שְׁנוּנִ֑ים עִ֝֗ם גַּחֲלֵ֥י רְתָמִֽים׃
5 Woe! to me that I have sojourned Meshech I have dwelt with [the] tents of Kedar.
אֹֽויָה־לִ֭י כִּי־גַ֣רְתִּי מֶ֑שֶׁךְ שָׁ֝כַ֗נְתִּי עִֽם־אָהֳלֵ֥י קֵדָֽר׃
6 Much it has dwelt itself self my with [one who] hates peace.
רַ֭בַּת שָֽׁכְנָה־לָּ֣הּ נַפְשִׁ֑י עִ֝֗ם שֹׂונֵ֥א שָׁלֹֽום׃
7 I [am] peace and that I speak they [are] for war.
אֲ‍ֽנִי־שָׁ֭לֹום וְכִ֣י אֲדַבֵּ֑ר הֵ֝֗מָּה לַמִּלְחָמָֽה׃
