Psalms 120

A Song of degrees.

1

In my distress I cried to the LORD, and he heard me.
2Deliver my soul, O LORD, from lying lips, and from a deceitful tongue. 3What shall be given to thee? or what shall be done to thee, thou false tongue?
What shall be given...: or, What shall the deceitful tongue give unto thee? or, what shall is profit thee?
,
done: Heb. added
4Sharp arrows of the mighty, with coals of juniper.
Sharp...: or, It is as the sharp arrows of the mighty man, with coals of juniper

5Woe is me, that I sojourn in Mesech, that I dwell in the tents of Kedar! 6My soul hath long dwelt with him that hateth peace. 7I am for peace: but when I speak, they are for war.
for peace: or, a man of peace
