120
A song of ascents.
1 In my distress I called out to Yahweh,
and he answered me.
2 Rescue my life, Yahweh, from those who lie with their lips
and deceive with their tongues.
3 How will he punish you, and what more will he do to you,
you who have a lying tongue?
4 He will punish you with the arrows of a warrior
sharpened over burning coals of the broom tree.
5 Woe is me because I temporarily live in Meshech;
I lived previously among the tents of Kedar.
6 For too long I have lived
with those who hate peace.
7 I am for peace,
but when I speak, they are for war.
