Psalm 120

Ad Dominum

  1. WHEN I was in trouble, I called upon the LORD, and he heard me.
  2. Deliver my soul, O LORD, from lying lips, and from a deceitful tongue.
  3. What reward shall be given or done unto thee, thou false tongue? even mighty and sharp arrows, with hot burning coals.
  4. Woe is me, that I am constrained to dwell with Meshech, and to have my habitation among the tents of Kedar.
  5. My soul hath long dwelt among them that are enemies unto peace.
  6. I labour for peace, but when I speak unto them thereof, they make them ready to battle.
