Psalms 120

1 I call on the LORD in my distress, and he answers me.

2 "LORD, deliver me from lying lips and a dishonest tongue!"

2 Save me, LORD, from lying lips and from deceitful tongues.

3 What more will be given to you, what more will be done to you, you dishonest tongue?

3 What will he do to you, and what more besides, you deceitful tongue?

4 Just this: a warrior's sharpened arrows, coupled with burning coals from a wood fire!

4 He will punish you with a warrior’s sharp arrows, with burning coals of the broom bush.

5 Woe to me that I dwell in Meshek, that I live among the tents of Kedar!

6 I've lived far too long with people who hate peace.

6 Too long have I lived among those who hate peace.

7 I'm for peace, but when I speak, they are for war.

7 I am for peace; but when I speak, they are for war.
