Psalms 120

1 A Song of Degrees. In mine affliction I cried to the Lord, and he listened to me.

A Jehová llamé estando en angustia; y él me respondió.

2 Deliver my soul, O Lord, from unjust lips, and from a deceitful tongue.

Jehová, escapa mi alma del labio mentiroso: de la lengua engañosa.

3 What should be given to you, and what should be added to you, for [your] crafty tongue?

¿Qué te dará a ti, o qué te añadirá la lengua engañosa?

4 Sharpened weapons of the mighty, with coals of the desert.

Es como saetas de valiente agudas con brasas de enebros.

5 Woe is me, that my sojourning is prolonged; I have tabernacled among the tents of Kedar.

¡Ay de mí que peregrino en Mesec: habito con las tiendas de Cedar!

6 My soul has long been a sojourner;

Mucho se detiene mi alma con los que aborrecen la paz.

7 I was peaceful among them that hated peace; when I spoke to them, they warred against me without a cause.

Yo soy pacífico; y cuando hablo, ellos guerrean.
