120:1  (Shir HaMa’a- lot [Song of Ascents]) In my tzoros I cried unto Hashem, and He heard me.
120:2  Save my nefesh, Hashem, from sefat sheker (lying lips), and from lashon remiyyah (a tongue of deceit).
120:3  What shall be given unto thee? Or what shall be done unto thee, thou lashon remiyyah?
120:4  Sharp khitzim (arrows) of the gibbor, with burning (charcoal) coals of the broom plant.
120:5  Woe is me, that I sojourn in Meshech, that I dwell in the ohalim of Kedar!
120:6  My nefesh hath long dwelt with him that hateth shalom.
120:7  I am for shalom; but when I speak, they are for milchamah (war).
