| Chapter 120 |
1 |
A Song of degrees. In my distress I cried unto the LORD, and he heard me. --
|
2 |
Deliver my soul, O LORD, from lying lips, [and] from a deceitful tongue. --
|
3 |
What shall be given unto thee? or what shall be done unto thee, thou false tongue? --
|
4 |
Sharp arrows of the mighty, with coals of juniper. --
|
5 |
Woe is me, that I sojourn in Mesech, [that] I dwell in the tents of Kedar! --
|
6 |
My soul hath long dwelt with him that hateth peace. --
|
7 |
I [am for] peace: but when I speak, they [are] for war. --
