Psalms 120

A Prayer of Someone Far from Home

A psalm for going up to worship.

1 When I was in trouble, I called to the Lord,
    and he answered me.
2 Lord, save me from liars
    and from those who plan evil.

3 You who plan evil, what will God do to you?
    How will he punish you?
4 He will punish you with the sharp arrows of a warrior
    and with burning coals of wood.

5 How terrible it is for me to live in the land of Meshech,
    to live among the people of Kedar.
6 I have lived too long
    with people who hate peace.
7 When I talk peace,
    they want war.
