Psalms 120
A Song of degrees.
1In my distress I cried unto Yhwh, and he heard me.
2Deliver my soul, O Yhwh, from lying lips, and from a deceitful tongue.
3What shall be given unto thee? or what shall be done unto thee, thou false tongue?12
4Sharp arrows of the mighty, with coals of juniper.3
5Woe is me, that I sojourn in Meshech, that I dwell in the tents of Kedar!
6My soul hath long dwelt with him that hateth peace.
