←Prev   Psalms 120 as rendered by/in  Next→ 


120:1  A song for going up to the Temple. I was in trouble. I called to the Lord for help, and he answered me!
120:2  I said, “Lord, save me from liars, from those who say things that are not true.”
120:3  Liars, do you know what the Lord has for you? Do you know what you will get?
120:4  You will get a soldier’s sharp arrow and hot coals to punish you.
120:5  How I hate living here among these people! It’s like living in Meshech or in the tents of Kedar.
120:6  I have lived too long with those who hate peace.
120:7  I ask for peace, but they want war.
