Psalm 120 - Amplified Bible - Classic Edition A Song of Ascents. 1 IN MY distress I cried to the Lord, and He answered me. 2 Deliver me, O Lord, from lying lips and from deceitful tongues. 3 What shall be given to you? Or what more shall be done to you, you deceitful tongue?– 4 Sharp arrows of a [mighty] warrior, with [glowing] coals of the broom tree! 5 Woe is me that I sojourn with Meshech, that I dwell beside the tents of Kedar [as if among notoriously barbarous people]! [Gen. 10:2; 25:13; Jer. 49:28, 29.] 6 My life has too long had its dwelling with him who hates peace. 7 I am for peace; but when I speak, they are for war. |
