| 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!
