祈求上帝幫助

上聖殿朝聖之詩。

120 我在患難中向耶和華禱告,
祂就應允了我。
耶和華啊,
求你救我遠離虛謊詭詐之徒。
詭詐之徒啊!
你會受到怎樣的懲罰呢?
你會有什麼下場呢?
等待你的是勇士的利箭和炙熱的炭火。
我寄居在米設和基達的人當中有禍了!
我住在憎惡和平的人當中太久了。
我愛和平,
但我倡導和平的時候,
他們卻要戰爭。

A Song of Ascents.

120 In my distress, I cried to Yahweh.
    He answered me.
Deliver my soul, Yahweh, from lying lips,
    from a deceitful tongue.
What will be given to you, and what will be done more to you,
    you deceitful tongue?
Sharp arrows of the mighty,
    with coals of juniper.
Woe is me, that I live in Meshech,
    that I dwell among the tents of Kedar!
My soul has had her dwelling too long
    with him who hates peace.
I am for peace,
    but when I speak, they are for war.
