Psalms 120

A Song of degrees.

1 In my distress I cried unto the LORD, and he heard me.

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

3 What shall be given unto thee? or what shall be done unto thee, thou false tongue?*120.3 What shall be given…: or, What shall the deceitful tongue give unto thee? or, what shall is profit thee?*120.3 done: Heb. added

4 Sharp arrows of the mighty, with coals of juniper.*120.4 Sharp…: or, It is as the sharp arrows of the mighty man, with coals of juniper

5 Woe is me, that I sojourn in Mesech, that I dwell in the tents of Kedar!

6 My soul hath long dwelt with him that hateth peace.

7 I am for peace: but when I speak, they are for war.*120.7 for peace: or, a man of peace

祈求 神拯救脱离诡诈的人

朝圣之歌*原文作"往上行之歌"。 1 我在急难中呼求耶和华，

他就应允我。*本节在《马索拉文本》包括细字标题

2 耶和华啊！求你救我脱离说谎的嘴唇，

救我脱离诡诈的舌头。

3 诡诈的舌头啊！他要给你甚么呢？

他要加给你甚么呢？

4 就是勇士的利箭，

和罗腾木烧的炭火。

5 我寄居在米设，

住在基达的帐棚中，有祸了。

6 我和恨恶和平的人，

同住得太久。

7 我希望有和平，

但我一说话，他们就要争战。
