Psalm 120
1 ମୁଁ ଆପଣା ବିପଦ ସମଯରେ ସଦାପ୍ରଭୁଙ୍କଠାରେ ପ୍ରାର୍ଥନା କଲି ଏବଂ ସେ ମାେତେ ଉତ୍ତର ଦେଲେ।
2 ହେ ସଦାପ୍ରଭୁ, ମାେ ବିଷଯରେ ମିଥ୍ଯା କହୁଥିବା ଲୋକମାନଙ୍କଠାରୁ ମାେତେ ଉଦ୍ଧାର କର। ସମାନେେ ଯେଉଁ କଥାସବୁ କହୁଥିଲେ, ତାହାସବୁ ସତ୍ଯ ନ ଥିଲା।
3 ହେ ମିଥ୍ଯାବାଦୀମାନେ, ତୁମ୍ଭଙ୍କୁ କ'ଣ ଦିଆୟିବ, ତୁମ୍ଭେ କ'ଣ ପାଇବ ? କ'ଣ ତୁମ୍ଭେ ଜାଣ ?
4 ତୁମ୍ଭକୁ ଦଣ୍ଡ ଦବୋ ପାଇଁ ସୈନିକର ତୀକ୍ଷ୍ମ ଶର ଓ ଗରମ କୋଇଲା ପରମେଶ୍ବର ଆଣିବେ।
5 ମିଥ୍ଯାବାଦୀ ଲୋକମାନେ, ମେଶକରେ ବାସ କଲା ପରି ତୁମ୍ଭ ପାଖରେ ବାସ କରୁଛନ୍ତି। ଏହା କଦୋରର ତମ୍ବୁରେ ବାସ କରିବା ସଦୃଶ।
6 ଶାନ୍ତି ଘୃଣାକାରୀମାନଙ୍କ ସହିତ ମୁଁ ଦୀର୍ଘଦିନଧରି ବାସ କରିଅଛି।
7 ମୁଁ କହିଲି, ମୁଁ ଶାନ୍ତି ଚା ହେଁ, କିନ୍ତୁ ସମାନେେ ୟୁଦ୍ଧ ଚାହାଁନ୍ତି।
1 A Song of degrees.
2 In my distress I cried unto the Lord, and he heard me.
3 Deliver my soul, O Lord, from lying lips, and from a deceitful tongue.
4 What shall be given unto thee? or what shall be done unto thee, thou false tongue?
5 Sharp arrows of the mighty, with coals of juniper.
6 Woe is me, that I sojourn in Mesech, that I dwell in the tents of Kedar!
7 My soul hath long dwelt with him that hateth peace.
8 I am for peace: but when I speak, they are for war.
1 For, behold, the day cometh, that shall burn as an oven; and all the proud, yea, and all that do wickedly, shall be stubble: and the day that cometh shall burn them up, saith the Lord of hosts, that it shall leave them neither root nor branch.
2 But unto you that fear my name shall the Sun of righteousness arise with healing in his wings; and ye shall go forth, and grow up as calves of the stall.
3 And ye shall tread down the wicked; for they shall be ashes under the soles of your feet in the day that I shall do this, saith the Lord of hosts.
4 Remember ye the law of Moses my servant, which I commanded unto him in Horeb for all Israel, with the statutes and judgments.
5 Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet before the coming of the great and dreadful day of the Lord:
6 And he shall turn the heart of the fathers to the children, and the heart of the children to their fathers, lest I come and smite the earth with a curse.
