Psalms120
In My Distress I Cried to the LORD
A song of ascents.
1In my distress I cried to the LORD,and He answered me.2Deliver my soul, O LORD,from lying lips and a deceitful tongue.3What will He do to you,and what will be added to you,O deceitful tongue?4Sharp arrows will come from the warrior,with burning coals of the broom tree!5Woe to me that I dwell in Meshech,that I live among the tents of Kedar!6Too long have I dweltamong those who hate peace.7I am in favor of peace;but when I speak, they want war.
