Psalms 120 A Song of Ascents. In my distress, I cried to the LORD. He answered me.

NHEB⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ [A Song of Ascents.] In my distress, I cried to the LORD. He answered me. ² Deliver my soul, LORD, from lying lips, from a deceitful tongue. ³ What will be given to you, and what will be done more to you, you deceitful tongue? ⁴ Sharp arrows of the mighty, with coals of juniper. ⁵ Woe is me, that I live in Meshech, that I dwell among the tents of Kedar. ⁶ My soul has had her dwelling too long with him who hates peace. ⁷ I am for peace, but when I speak, they are for war.
