Psalms 120

1 When I had troubles, I called out to Yahweh and he answered me.

Na minha angústia clamei ao Senhor, e me ouviu.

2 [I prayed], “Yahweh, rescue/save me from people [SYN, MTY] who lie to me and [try to] deceive me!”

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

3 You people who lie to me, [I will tell you] [RHQ] what [God] will do to you and what he will do to punish you.

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

4 He will shoot sharp arrows at you like soldiers do, and he will [burn you with] red-hot coals from [the wood of] a broom tree.

Flechas agudas do valente, com brazas vivas de zimbro.

5 It is terrible for me, living among cruel/savage [DOU] people [like those who live] in Meshech [region] and Kedar [region].

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

6 I have lived for a long time among people who hate [to live with others] peacefully.

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

7 Every time I talk about living together peacefully, they talk about starting a war.

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