Psalms 120 GW

1. When I was in trouble, I cried out to the Lord, and he answered me.

2. O Lord, rescue me from lying lips and from a deceitful tongue.

3. You deceitful tongue, what can the Lord give you? What more can he do for you?

4. He will give you a warrior’s sharpened arrows and red-hot coals.

5. How horrible it is to live as a foreigner in Meshech or to stay in the tents of Kedar.

6. I have lived too long with those who hate peace.

7. I am for peace, but when I talk about it, they only talk about war.
