←Prev   Psalms 120 as rendered by/in  Next→ 



120:1  I cried out to the Lord when I was in trouble (and he answered me):
120:2  “Lord, deliver me from lying lips and a dishonest tongue!”
120:3  What more will be given to you, what more will be done to you, you dishonest tongue?
120:4  Just this: a warrior’s sharpened arrows, coupled with burning coals from a wood fire!
120:5  Oh, I’m doomed because I have been an immigrant in Meshech, because I’ve made my home among Kedar’s tents.
120:6  I’ve lived far too long with people who hate peace.
120:7  I’m for peace, but when I speak, they are for war.
