Psalms Chapter[BR] 120

1 *A song of ascents. In my distress I cried out to the LORD and he answered me.

2 I said, "O LORD, rescue me from those who lie with their lips and those who deceive with their tongue.

3 How will he severely punish you, you deceptive talker?

4 Here's how! With the sharp arrows of warriors, with arrowheads forged over the hot coals.

Psalms Chapter[BR] 120

5 How miserable I am! For I have lived temporarily in Meshech; I have resided among the tents of Kedar.

6 For too long I have had to reside with those who hate peace.

7 I am committed to peace, but when I speak, they want to make war.
