Psa 120:6-7 | MHM | STEP | v. 6–7 : He continues, My soul hath long dwelt with him that hateth peace. I am for peace: but when I speak, they are for war (Psalm 120:6–7 ). The psalmist wants to live in peace and tries to get along with others, but the people around him only want to fight. Even when he speaks kindly and tries to make peace, they respond with anger and conflict. This shows the difference between a person who loves peace and those who love trouble. Jesus also faced this, as people hated Him even though He did good. If we find ourselves in a similar situation, we should not give up on peace, but keep trying to do good, even when others do not respond well (Romans 12:21 ).

The psalmist wants to live in peace and tries to get along with others, but the people around him only want to fight. Even when he speaks kindly and tries to make peace, they respond with anger and conflict. This shows the difference between a person who loves peace and those who love trouble.
