< 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
IN my distress I cried unto the Lord, and he heard 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 lying 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 shall be given unto thee? or what shall be done unto thee, thou false tongue?
Sharp arrows of the mighty, with coals of juniper.
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 I sojourn in Mesech, that I dwell in the tents of Kedar!
My soul hath long dwelt with him that hateth peace.
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 am for peace: but when I speak, they are for war.
