Psalms 120

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

Na minha angústia clamei ao Senhor, e me ouviu.

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

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

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

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

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

Flechas agudas do valente, com brazas vivas de zimbro.

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

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

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

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

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

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