Psalm 120

1 I cried in trouble to the LORD, and he has answered me.
2 From lying lips and crafty tongue, O LORD, my soul set free.

3 What shall be given you, false tongue? What added to your doom?
4 Sharp arrows of a mighty man, and red hot coals of broom.

5 Alas for me, that I sojourn so long in Meshech's land,
That I have made my dwelling where the tents of Kedar stand!

6 Too long my soul has made its home with those who peace abhor.
7 I am for peace, but when I speak they ready are for war.
