120 Revised Standard Version Passage Biblia Hebraica

120 1In my distress I cry to the LORD,
that he may answer me:
I Called to the Lord. Psalm 120(v119)אֶל־יְהוָה בַּצָּרָתָה לִּי קָרָאתִי וַיַּעֲנֵנִי׃
2"Deliver me, O LORD,
from lying lips, from a deceitful tongue."
 יְהוָה הַצִּילָה נַפְשִׁי מִשְּׂפַת־שֶׁקֶר מִלָּשֹׁון רְמִיָּה׃
3What shall be given to you?
And what more shall be done to you, you deceitful tongue?
 מַה־יִּתֵּן לְךָ וּמַה־יֹּסִיף לָךְ לָשֹׁון רְמִיָּה׃
4A warrior's sharp arrows,
with glowing coals of the broom tree!
 חִצֵּי גִבֹּור שְׁנוּנִים עִם גַּחֲלֵי רְתָמִים׃
5Woe is me, that I sojourn in Meshech,
that I dwell among the tents of Kedar!
 אֹויָה־לִי כִּי־גַרְתִּי מֶשֶׁךְ שָׁכַנְתִּי עִם־אָהֳלֵי קֵדָר׃
6Too long have I had my dwelling
among those who hate peace.
 רַבַּת שָׁכְנָה־לָּהּ נַפְשִׁי עִם שֹׂונֵא שָׁלֹום׃
7I am for peace;
but when I speak,
they are for war!
 אֲנִי־שָׁלֹום וְכִי אֲדַבֵּר הֵמָּה לַמִּלְחָמָה׃
