Psalm 120

A song of ascents.

¹ I call on the Lord^(a) in my distress,^(b)
    and he answers me.
² Save me, Lord,
    from lying lips^(c)
    and from deceitful tongues.^(d)

³ What will he do to you,
    and what more besides,
    you deceitful tongue?
⁴ He will punish you with a warrior's sharp arrows,^(e)
    with burning coals of the broom bush.

⁵ Woe to me that I dwell in Meshek,
    that I live among the tents of Kedar!^(f)
⁶ Too long have I lived
    among those who hate peace.
⁷ I am for peace;
    but when I speak, they are for war.
