Salmos 120:1 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 120:1

In my distress I cried unto the Lord
Being at a distance from his own country, or, however, from the house of God; persecuted by men, under the lash of their tongues; reproached, abused, and belied by them: in this his case and circumstances, he betook himself by prayer to the Lord, and importuned help and deliverance of him, knowing that none could help him as he; see ( Psalms 18:6 ) ;

and he heard me;
answered him, and delivered him. The petition he put up follows, which shows his case, and his particular distress.

Salmos 120:1 In-Context

1 Salmo 120
Cántico para los peregrinos que suben a Jerusalén.
Llevé mis problemas al Señor
;
clamé a él, y respondió a mi oración.

2 Rescátame, oh Señor
, de los mentirosos
y de todos los embusteros.

3 ¡Ay, lengua engañosa! ¿Qué hará Dios contigo?
¿Cómo aumentará tu castigo?

4 Te atravesarán con flechas afiladas
y te quemarán con brasas encendidas.

5 Cuánto sufro en el lejano Mesec.
Me duele habitar en el distante Cedar.
