Psalm 120. Ad Dominum.
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.
