Psalm 120A Cry for Truth and Peace
-
In my distress I called to the Lord, and he answered me.
-
"Lord, rescue me from lying lips and a deceitful tongue."
-
What will he give you, and what will he do to you, you deceitful tongue?
-
A warrior's sharp arrows with burning charcoal!
-
What misery that I have stayed in Meshech, that I have lived among the tents of Kedar!
-
I have dwelt too long with those who hate peace.
-
I am for peace; but when I speak, they are for war.
