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!

Schlachter 2000
1 Ein Wallfahrtslied. Ich rief zum HERRN in meiner Not, und er erhörte mich. 2 HERR, rette meine Seele von den Lügenmäulern, von den falschen Zungen! 3 Was wird Er dir geben und was dir hinzufügen, du falsche Zunge? 4 Geschärfte Kriegerpfeile und glühendes Ginsterholz! 5 Weh mir, dass ich ein Fremdling bin in Mesech, dass ich wohne bei den Zelten Kedars! 6 Lange genug hat meine Seele gewohnt bei denen, die den Frieden hassen! 7 Ich bin für den Frieden; doch wenn ich rede, so sind sie für den Krieg.
