Psalm 120 | English Standard Version

Deliver Me, O Lord

1 A Song of Ascents. In my distress I called to the Lord, and he answered 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 to 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!

Hilferuf gegen Verleumder

1 Ein Wallfahrtslied. Ich rufe zu dem HERRN in meiner Not und er erhört mich. 2 HERR, errette mich von den Lügenmäulern, von den falschen Zungen. 3 Was soll er dir antun, du falsche Zunge, und was dir noch geben? 4 Scharfe Pfeile eines Starken und feurige Kohlen! 5 Weh mir, dass ich ein Fremdling bin unter Meschech; ich muss wohnen bei den Zelten Kedars! 6 Es wird meiner Seele lang, zu wohnen bei denen, die den Frieden hassen. 7 Ich halte Frieden; aber wenn ich rede, so fangen sie Krieg an.
