Psalms 120

¹A Song of[1] Ascents. In my trouble I cried to the LORD, And He answered me.

²Rescue my soul, O LORD, from lying lips, And from a deceitful tongue.

³What shall be given to you, and what more shall be done to you, You deceitful tongue?—

⁴Sharp arrows of the warrior, With the[2] burning coals of the broom tree.

⁵Woe to me, for I sojourn in Meshech, and I live among the tents of Kedar [among hostile people]!

⁶Too long my soul has had its dwelling With those who hate peace.

⁷I am for peace, but when I speak, They are for war.
