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!

Neue evangelistische Übersetzung

Die Feinde des Friedens

1 Ein Lied für den Aufstieg zum Tempel. Zu Jahwe rief ich in meiner Not, / und er antwortete mir. 2 "Jahwe, rette mich vor diesen Lügenmäulern / und vor ihren falschen Zungen!" 3 Was soll Gott dir noch tun, / was alles dir antun, / du betrügerische Zunge? 4 Scharfe Pfeile eines Kriegers, / die wie glühende Holzkohlen* sind? 5 Weh mir, dass ich Gast in Meschech* war, / dass ich in Kedars* Zelten wohnte! 6 Viel zu lange lebte ich bei den Friedensverächtern. 7 Ich will Frieden, so rede ich auch, / doch sie sind nur für den Krieg.
