Psalms 120
120
A Song of Ascents.
1In my distress I cried unto the LORD,
And he answered me.
2Deliver my soul, O LORD, from lying lips,
And from a deceitful tongue.
3What shall be given unto thee, and what shall be done more unto thee,
Thou deceitful tongue?
4Sharp arrows of the mighty,
With coals of juniper.
5Woe is me,
That I sojourn in Meshech,
That I dwell among the tents of Kedar!
6My soul hath long had her dwelling
With him that hateth peace.
7I am for peace:
But when I speak, they are for war.

Tehillim (Psalms) 120
120
1In my distress I cried to יהוה, And He answered me.
2יהוה, deliver my being from false lips, From a treacherous tongue.
3What would one give to you, Or what would one do to you, O treacherous tongue?
4Sharp arrows of a mighty man, With coals of the broom-wood!
5Woe to me for I have sojourned in Mesheḵ, I have dwelt among the tents of Qĕḏar!
6My being has dwelt too long With him who hates peace.
7I am for peace; But when I speak, they are for fighting.
