120: 1 Prayer for Deliverance from the Treacherous. A Song of Ascents. In my distress I cried unto Jehovah, And he answered me.
120: 2 Deliver my soul, O Jehovah, from lying lips, And from a deceitful tongue.
120: 3 What shall be given unto thee, and what shall be done more unto thee, Thou deceitful tongue?
120: 4 ⁷³³Sharp arrows of the mighty, With coals of ⁷³⁴juniper.
⁷³³Or, It is as the sharp arrows of the mighty man,
⁷³⁴Or, broom.

120: 5 Woe is me, that I sojourn in Meshech, That I dwell among the tents of Kedar!
120: 6 My soul hath long had her dwelling With him that hateth peace.
120: 7 I am for peace: But when I speak, they are for war.
