< 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 Ascents. In my distress I cried unto the LORD, and he answered 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, and what shall be done more unto thee, thou deceitful 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 Meshech, that I dwell among the tents of Kedar!
My soul hath long had her dwelling 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.
