Psalm 120
1 Een pelgrimslied.[a]
Heer, toen ik bang was, riep ik U om hulp
en U heeft mij gered.
2 Heer, red mij van de mensen
die leugens over me rondvertellen.
3 Leugenaars, weten jullie wel
wat het gevolg zal zijn van jullie leugens?
4 De Heer zal jullie treffen met scherpe pijlen,
met gloeiende kolen!
5 Ik vind het vreselijk dat ik in een ver land moet wonen,
in het land van Mesech, bij het volk van Kedar.
6 Ik woon al veel te lang
bij mensen die de vrede haten.
7 Ik wil alleen maar vrede.
Maar ik kan met hen niet over vrede spreken.
Zij willen alleen maar strijd.

Psalm 120
A song of ascents.
1 I call on the Lord(A) in my distress,(B)
and he answers me.
2 Save me, Lord,
from lying lips(C)
and from deceitful tongues.(D)
3 What will he do to you,
and what more besides,
you deceitful tongue?
4 He will punish you with a warrior’s sharp arrows,(E)
with burning coals of the broom bush.
5 Woe to me that I dwell in Meshek,
that I live among the tents of Kedar!(F)
6 Too long have I lived
among those who hate peace.
7 I am for peace;
but when I speak, they are for war.

120 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?
4 Sharp arrows of the mighty, 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.
