Psalms 120-121
Chapter 120
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.
Chapter 121
Psalm 121
A song of ascents.
1 I lift up my eyes to the mountains—
where does my help come from?
2 My help comes from the
Lord
,
the Maker of heaven(a) and earth.(b)
3 He will not let your foot slip—
he who watches over you will not slumber;
4 indeed, he who watches(c) over Israel
will neither slumber nor sleep.
5 The
Lord
watches over(d) you—
the
Lord
is your shade at your right hand;
6 the sun(e) will not harm you by day,
nor the moon by night.
7 The
Lord
will keep you from all harm(f)—
he will watch over your life;
8 the
Lord
will watch over your coming and going
both now and forevermore.(g)
