Psalm 120
120
1 A Canticle in steps. I have lifted up my eyes to the mountains; from thence help will come to me.
2 My help is from the Lord, who made heaven and earth.
3 May he not allow your foot to be moved, and may he not slumber, who guards you.
4 Behold, he who guards Israel will neither sleep, nor slumber.
5 The Lord is your keeper, the Lord is your protection, above your right hand.
6 The sun will not burn you by day, nor the moon by night.
7 The Lord guards you from all evil. May the Lord guard your soul.
8 May the Lord guard your entrance and your exit, from this time forward and even forever.

Psalm 120
120
Psalm 120
A song for those who go up to Jerusalem to worship the Lord.
1I call out to the Lord when I’m in trouble,
and he answers me.
2 Lord, save me from people whose lips tell lies.
Save me from people whose tongues don’t tell the truth.
3What will the Lord do to you, you lying tongue?
And what more will he do?
4He will punish you with the sharp arrows of a soldier.
He will punish you with burning coals from a desert bush.
5How terrible it is for me to live in the tents of the people of Meshek!
How terrible to live in the tents of the people of Kedar!
6I have lived too long
among those who hate peace.
7I want peace.
But when I speak, they want war.
