Psalms, Psalm 120

In my trouble I cried to the LORD,
And He answered me.

Deliver my soul, O LORD, from lying lips,
From a deceitful tongue.

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

⁴

Sharp arrows of the warrior,
With the burning coals of the broom tree.

⁵

Woe is me, for I sojourn in Meshech,
For I dwell among the tents of Kedar!

⁶

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

⁷

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