Psalms 120 A Song of the going up. In my trouble my cry went up to the Lord, and he gave me an answer.

BBE⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ A Song of the going up. In my trouble my cry went up to the Lord, and he gave me an answer. ² O Lord, be the saviour of my soul from false lips, and from the tongue of deceit. ³ What punishment will he give you? what more will he do to you, you false tongue? ⁴ Sharp arrows of the strong, and burning fire. ⁵ Sorrow is mine because I am strange in Meshech, and living in the tents of Kedar. ⁶ My soul has long been living with the haters of peace. ⁷ I am for peace: but when I say so, they are for war.
