Psalms 120
1 I call on the Lord in my distress, 1 and he answers me.
2 Save me, O Lord, from lying lips 2 and from deceitful tongues.
3 What will he do to you, 3 and what more besides, O deceitful tongue?
4 He will punish you with a warrior's sharp arrows, 4 with burning coals of the broom tree.
5 Woe to me that I dwell in Meshech, 5 that I live among the tents of Kedar!
6 Too long have I lived 6 among those who hate peace.
7 I am a man of peace; 7 but when I speak, they are for war.
