Psalm 120 :: New American Standard Bible 2020 (NASB20)

Prayer for Rescue from the Treacherous.

Psa 120:1

A Song of [fn]Ascents.

I cried to the LORD in my trouble,

And He answered me.

Psa 120:2

Rescue my soul, LORD, from lying lips,

From a deceitful tongue.

Psa 120:3

What will He give to you, and what more will He do to you,

You deceitful tongue?

Psa 120:4

Sharp arrows of the warrior,

With the burning coals of the broom tree!

Psa 120:5

Woe to me, for I reside in Meshech,

For I have settled among the tents of Kedar!

Psa 120:6

Too long has my soul had its dwelling

With those who hate peace.

Psa 120:7

I am for peace, but when I speak,

They are for war.
