Psalms 120

1 song [the] step to(wards) LORD in/on/with distress [to] to/for me to call: call to and to answer me

A song of ascents. In my distress I called out to Yahweh, and he answered me.

2 LORD to rescue [emph?] soul: myself my from lips deception from tongue deceit

Rescue my life, Yahweh, from those who lie with their lips and deceive with their tongues.

3 what? to give: give to/for you and what? to add to/for you tongue deceit

How will he punish you, and what more will he do to you, you who have a lying tongue?

4 arrow mighty man to sharpen with coal broom

He will punish you with the arrows of a warrior sharpened over burning coals of the broom tree.

5 woe! to/for me for to sojourn Meshech to dwell with tent Kedar

Woe is me because I temporarily live in Meshech; I lived previously among the tents of Kedar.

6 many to dwell to/for her soul: myself my with to hate peace

For too long I have lived with those who hate peace.

7 I peace and for to speak: speak they(masc.) to/for battle

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