Psa 120:1
A Song of [fn]Ascents.
In my distress H6869 I called H7121 to Yahweh H3068,
And He answered H6030 me.
Psa 120:2
O Yahweh H3068, deliver H5337 my soul H5315 from a lying H8267 lip H8193,
From a deceitful H7423 tongue H3956.
Psa 120:3
What H4100 shall He give H5414 to you, and what H4100 shall He add H3254 to you,
O deceitful H7423 tongue H3956?
Psa 120:4
Sharp H8150 arrows H2671 of the warrior H1368,
With the burning coals H1513 of the broom H7574 tree H7574.
Psa 120:5
Woe H190 is me, for I sojourn H1481 in Meshech H4902,
For I dwell H7931 among H5973 the tents H168 of Kedar H6938!
Psa 120:6
Too long H7227 has my soul H5315 had its dwelling H7931
With those who hate H8130 peace H7965.
Psa 120:7
I am for peace H7965, but when H3588 I speak H1696,
They are for war H4421.
