Psalms 120

In my distress I cried unto the LORD, and he heard me.
Hodočasnička pjesma Kad bijah u nevolji, Jahvi zavapih i on me usliša.
Deliver my soul, O LORD, from lying lips, and from a deceitful tongue.
Jahve, izbavi dušu moju od usana prijevarnih, od zlobna jezika!
What shall be given unto thee? or what shall be done unto thee, thou false tongue?
Kojim zlom da te prokunem, zlobni jeziče?
Sharp arrows of the mighty, with coals of juniper.
Strelicama oštrim iz ratničke ruke i ugljevljem žarkim.
Woe is me, that I sojourn in Mesech, that I dwell in the tents of Kedar!
Jao meni što mi je boraviti u Mešeku i stanovati u šatorima kedarskim!
My soul hath long dwelt with him that hateth peace.
Predugo mi duša mora živjeti s mrziteljima mira.
I am for peace: but when I speak, they are for war.
Kada o miru govorim, oni sile na rat.
