Psalms 120

NEW AMERICAN BIBLE	VULGATA
1 A song of ascents. The LORD answered me when I called in my distress:	1 Canticum graduum. Levavi oculos meos in montes, unde veniet auxilium mihi.
2 LORD, deliver me from lying lips, from treacherous tongues.	2 Auxilium meum a Domino, qui fecit cælum et terram.
3 What will the Lord inflict on you, O treacherous tongue, and what more besides?	3 Non det in commotionem pedem tuum, neque dormitet qui custodit te.
4 A warrior's sharpened arrows and fiery coals of brush wood!	4 Ecce non dormitabit neque dormiet qui custodit Israël.
5 Alas, I was an alien in Meshech, I lived near the tents of Kedar!	5 Dominus custodit te ; Dominus protectio tua super manum dexteram tuam.
6 Too long did I live among those who hated peace.	6 Per diem sol non uret te, neque luna per noctem.
7 When I spoke of peace, they were for war.	7 Dominus custodit te ab omni malo ; custodiat animam tuam Dominus.
	8 Dominus custodiat introitum tuum et exitum tuum, ex hoc nunc et usque in sæculum.
