Psalms 120

  1. 1 A Song of Ascents. In my distress I cried unto Jehovah, And he answered me.

  2. 2 Deliver my soul, O Jehovah, from lying lips, [And] from a deceitful tongue.

  3. 3 What shall be given unto thee, and what shall be done more unto thee, Thou deceitful tongue?

  4. 4 Sharp arrows of the mighty, With coals of juniper.

  5. 5 Woe is me, that I sojourn in Meshech, That I dwell among the tents of Kedar!

  6. 6 My soul hath long had her dwelling With him that hateth peace.

  7. 7 I am [for] peace: But when I speak, they are for war.
