Psalm 120

In My Distress I Cried to the LORD

verse 1A song of ascents.

In my distress I cried to the LORD,

and He answered me.

verse 2Deliver my soul, O LORD,

from lying lips and a deceitful tongue.

verse 3What will He do to you,

and what will be added to you,

O deceitful tongue?

verse 4Sharp arrows will come from the warrior,

with burning coals of the broom tree!

verse 5Woe to me that I dwell in Meshech,

that I live among the tents of Kedar!

verse 6Too long have I dwelt

among those who hate peace.

verse 7I am in favor of peace;

but when I speak, they want war.
