תהילים 120

1 שִׁיר הַֽמַּעֲלוֹת אֶל־יְהֹוָה בַּצָּרָתָה לִּי קָרָאתִי וַֽיַּעֲנֵֽנִי׃

A song of ascents. In distress I cried to the Lord, and he answered me.

2 יְֽהֹוָה הַצִּילָה נַפְשִׁי מִשְּׂפַת־שֶׁקֶר מִלָּשׁוֹן רְמִיָּֽה׃

“Deliver me, Lord, from the lip that is false and the tongue that is crafty.”

3 מַה־יִּתֵּן לְךָ וּמַה־יֹּסִיף לָךְ לָשׁוֹן רְמִיָּֽה׃

What shall he give to you, you tongue that is crafty? What yet shall he give to you?

4 חִצֵּי גִבּוֹר שְׁנוּנִים עִם גַּחֲלֵי רְתָמִֽים׃

Arrows of warrior, sharpened, with glowing broom coals together.

5 אֽוֹיָה־לִי כִּי־גַרְתִּי מֶשֶׁךְ שָׁכַנְתִּי עִֽם־אׇהֳלֵי קֵדָֽר׃

Woe is me that I sojourn in Meshech, that I live by the tents of Kedar.

6 רַבַּת שָֽׁכְנָה־לָּהּ נַפְשִׁי עִם שׂוֹנֵא שָׁלֽוֹם׃

Already too long have I dwelt among those who hate peace.

7 אֲֽנִי־שָׁלוֹם וְכִי אֲדַבֵּר הֵמָּה לַמִּלְחָמָֽה׃

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