اَلْمَزَامِيرُ 120

١ 1 تَرْنِيمَةُ ٱلْمَصَاعِدِ إِلَى ٱلرَّبِّ فِي ضِيْقِي صَرَخْتُ فَٱسْتَجَابَ لِي.

A Song of the going up. In my trouble my cry went up to the Lord, and he gave me an answer.

٢ 2 يَارَبُّ، نَجِّ نَفْسِي مِنْ شِفَاهِ ٱلْكَذِبِ، مِنْ لِسَانِ غِشٍّ.

O Lord, be the saviour of my soul from false lips, and from the tongue of deceit.

٣ 3 مَاذَا يُعْطِيكَ وَمَاذَا يَزِيدُ لَكَ لِسَانُ ٱلْغِشِّ؟

What punishment will he give you? what more will he do to you, you false tongue?

٤ 4 سِهَامَ جَبَّارٍ مَسْنُونَةً مَعَ جَمْرِ ٱلرَّتَمِ.

Sharp arrows of the strong, and burning fire.

٥ 5 وَيْلِي لِغُرْبَتِي فِي مَاشِكَ، لِسَكَنِي فِي خِيَامِ قِيدَارَ!

Sorrow is mine because I am strange in Meshech, and living in the tents of Kedar.

٦ 6 طَالَ عَلَى نَفْسِي سَكَنُهَا مَعَ مُبْغِضِ ٱلسَّلَامِ.

My soul has long been living with the haters of peace.

٧ 7 أَنَا سَلَامٌ، وَحِينَمَا أَتَكَلَّمُ فَهُمْ لِلْحَرْبِ.

I am for peace: but when I say so, they are for war.
