| Chapter 120 |
1 |
A Song of the Ascents. Unto Jehovah in my distress I have called, And He answereth me. --
|
2 |
O Jehovah, deliver my soul from a lying lip, From a deceitful tongue! --
|
3 |
What doth He give to thee? And what doth He add to thee? O deceitful tongue! --
|
4 |
Sharp arrows of a mighty one, with broom-coals. --
|
5 |
Wo to me, for I have inhabited Mesech, I have dwelt with tents of Kedar. --
|
6 |
Too much hath my soul dwelt with him who is hating peace. --
|
7 |
I [am] peace, and when I speak they [are] for war! --
