< 詩篇 120 >
1 われ困苦にあひてヱホバをよびしかば我にこたへたまへり
A Song of Degrees. In mine affliction I cried to the Lord, and he listened to me.
2 ヱホバよねがはくは虚偽のくちびる欺詐の舌よりわが霊魂をたすけいだしたまへ
Deliver my soul, O Lord, from unjust lips, and from a deceitful tongue.
3 あざむきの舌よなんぢに何をあたへられ 何をくはへらるべきか
What should be given to you, and what should be added to you, for [your] crafty tongue?
Sharpened weapons of the mighty, with coals of the desert.
5 わざはひなるかな我はメセクにやどりケダルの幕屋のかたはらに住めり
Woe is me, that my sojourning is prolonged; I have tabernacled amongst the tents of Kedar.
My soul has long been a sojourner;
7 われは平安をねがふ されど我ものいふときにかれら戰爭をこのむ
I was peaceful amongst them that hated peace; when I spoke to them, they warred against me without a cause.
