Psalm 120:1 In-Context

1 Een lied op Hammaaloth. Ik heb tot den HEERE geroepen in mijn benauwdheid, en Hij heeft mij verhoord.
2 O HEERE! red mijn ziel van de valse lippen, van de bedriegelijke tong.
3 Wat zal U de bedriegelijke tong geven, of wat zal zij U toevoegen?
4 Scherpe pijlen eens machtigen, mitsgaders gloeiende jeneverkolen.
5 O, wee mij, dat ik een vreemdeling ben in Mesech, dat ik in de tenten Kedars wone.
