Psalms 120

1 A song of ascents. In my distress I cried to the LORD, and He answered me.

1 我在急難中求告耶和華， 他就應允我。

2 Deliver my soul, O LORD, from lying lips and a deceitful tongue.

2 耶和華啊，求你救我脫離說謊的嘴唇和詭詐的舌頭！

3 What will He do to you, and what will be added to you, O deceitful tongue?

3 詭詐的舌頭啊，要給你甚麼呢？ 要拿甚麼加給你呢？

4 Sharp arrows will come from the warrior, with burning coals of the broom tree!

4 就是勇士的利箭和羅騰木 的炭火。

5 Woe to me that I dwell in Meshech, that I live among the tents of Kedar!

5 我寄居在米設， 住在基達帳棚之中，有禍了！

6 Too long have I dwelt among those who hate peace.

6 我與那恨惡和睦的人許久同住。

7 I am in favor of peace; but when I speak, they want war.

7 我願和睦， 但我發言，他們就要爭戰。
