Psalms 120 — BBE

A Song of the going up.

120Verse 1In my trouble my cry went up to the Lord, and he gave me an answer.
^{Verse 2}O Lord, be the saviour of my soul from false lips, and from the tongue of deceit.
^{Verse 3}What punishment will he give you? what more will he do to you, you false tongue?
^{Verse 4}Sharp arrows of the strong, and burning fire.
^{Verse 5}Sorrow is mine because I am strange in Meshech, and living in the tents of Kedar.
^{Verse 6}My soul has long been living with the haters of peace.
^{Verse 7}I am for peace: but when I say so, they are for war.
