| Chapter 120 |
1 |
{A Song of degrees.} In my trouble I called unto Jehovah, and he answered me.
|
2 |
Jehovah, deliver my soul from the lying lip, from the deceitful tongue.
|
3 |
What shall be given unto thee, what shall be added unto thee, thou deceitful tongue?
|
4 |
Sharp arrows of a mighty one, with burning coals of broom-wood.
|
5 |
Woe is me, that I sojourn in Meshech, that I dwell among the tents of Kedar!
|
6 |
My soul hath long dwelt with them that hate peace.
|
7 |
I [am for] peace; but when I speak, they [are] for war.
