Salmos 120

1 Na minha angustia clamei ao Senhor, e me ouviu.

A SONG OF THE ASCENTS. I have called to YHWH in my distress, And He answers me.

2 Senhor, livra a minha alma dos labios mentirosos e da lingua enganadora.

O YHWH, deliver my soul from a lying lip, From a deceitful tongue!

3 Que te será dado, ou que te será accrescentado, lingua enganadora?

What does He give to you? And what does He add to you? O deceitful tongue!

4 Frechas agudas do valente, com brazas vivas de zimbro.

Sharp arrows of a mighty one, with coals of broom trees.

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

Woe to me, for I have inhabited Mesech, I have dwelt with tents of Kedar.

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

My soul has dwelt too much with him who is hating peace.

7 Pacifico sou, porém quando eu fallo já elles procuram guerra.

I—peace, and when I speak they [are] for war!
