Psalms 120

Prayer for deliverance from the treacherous.

A Song of Ascents.

¹In my distress I cried unto Jehovah, And he answered me.

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

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

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

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

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

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