Salmos 120
Bíblia Livre (BLIVRE) · Português
1 Cântico dos degraus: Em minha angústia clamei ao SENHOR, e ele me respondeu. 2 Ó SENHOR, livra minha alma dos lábios mentirosos, da língua enganadora. 3 O que ele te dará, e o que ele fará contigo, ó língua enganadora? 4 Flechas afiadas de um guerreiro, com brasas de zimbro. 5 Ai de mim, que peregrino em Meseque, e habito nas tendas de Quedar! 6 Minha alma morou tempo demais com os que odeiam a paz. 7 Eu sou da paz; mas quando falo, eles entram em guerra.

Salmos 120:2-3
PSALM 120
Psa 120:1-7. This is the first of fifteen Psalms (Psalms 120-134) entitled "A Song of Degrees" (Psa 121:1--literally, "A song for the degrees"), or ascents. It seems most probable they were designed for the use of the people when going up (compare 1Ki 12:27, 28) to Jerusalem on the festival occasions (De 16:16), three times a year. David appears as the author of four, Solomon of one (Psa 127:1), and the other ten are anonymous, probably composed after the captivity. In this Psalm the writer acknowledges God's mercy, prays for relief from a malicious foe, whose punishment he anticipates, and then repeats his complaint.
2-3. Slander and deceit charged on his foes implies his innocence.
Salmos 120:4
4. Sharp arrows of the mighty--destructive inflictions.
coals of juniper--which retain heat long. This verse may be read as a description of the wicked, but better as their punishment, in reply to the question of Psa 120:3.
Salmos 120:5
5. A residence in these remote lands pictures his miserable condition.
Salmos 120:6-7
6-7. While those who surrounded him were maliciously hostile, he was disposed to peace. This Psalm may well begin such a series as this, as a contrast to the promised joys of God's worship.
