←Prev   Psalms 120 as rendered by/in  Next→ 



120:1  A song for pilgrims ascending to Jerusalem. I took my troubles to the LORD; I cried out to him, and he answered my prayer.
120:2  Rescue me, O LORD, from liars and from all deceitful people.
120:3  O deceptive tongue, what will God do to you? How will he increase your punishment?
120:4  You will be pierced with sharp arrows and burned with glowing coals.
120:5  How I suffer in far-off Meshech. It pains me to live in distant Kedar.
120:6  I am tired of living among people who hate peace.
120:7  I search for peace; but when I speak of peace, they want war!
