Psalm 120
Revised Standard Version
Prayer for Deliverance from Slanderers
A Song of Ascents.
120 In my distress I cry to the Lord,
that he may answer me:
2 “Deliver me, O Lord,
from lying lips,
from a deceitful tongue.”
3 What shall be given to you?
And what more shall be done to you,
you deceitful tongue?
4 A warrior’s sharp arrows,
with glowing coals of the broom tree!
5 Woe is me, that I sojourn in Meshech,
that I dwell among the tents of Kedar!
6 Too long have I had my dwelling
among those who hate peace.
7 I am for peace;
but when I speak,
they are for war!

Mga Awit 120
Ang Biblia (1978)
Panalangin sa pagliligtas mula sa mga sucab. (A)Awit sa mga Pagsampa.
120 Sa aking kahirapan ay (B)dumaing ako sa Panginoon,
At sinagot niya ako.
2 Iligtas mo ang aking kaluluwa, Oh Panginoon, sa mga sinungaling na labi,
At mula sa magdarayang dila.
3 Anong maibibigay sa iyo, at anong magagawa pa sa iyo,
Ikaw na magdarayang dila?
4 Mga hasang pana ng makapangyarihan,
At mga baga ng enebro.
5 Sa aba ko, na nakikipamayan sa (C)Mesech,
Na (D)tumatahan ako sa mga tolda sa Kedar!
6 Malaon ng tinatahanan ng aking kaluluwa
Na kasama niyang nagtatanim sa kapayapaan.
7 Ako'y sa kapayapaan:
Nguni't pagka ako'y nagsasalita, sila'y sa pakikidigma.

A song of ascents.
1 I call on the Lord(A) in my distress,(B)

from lying lips(C)

and what more besides,
you deceitful tongue?
