# Psalm 120 A Song of Ascents. 
<a id="1" name="1"></a>
1. In my distress I called to the LORD, and he answered me. 
<a id="2" name="2"></a>
2. Deliver me, O LORD, from lying lips, from a deceitful tongue. 
<a id="3" name="3"></a>
3. What shall be given to you, and what more shall be done to you, you deceitful tongue? 
<a id="4" name="4"></a>
4. A warrior’s sharp arrows, with glowing coals of the broom tree! 
<a id="5" name="5"></a>
5. Woe to me, that I sojourn in Meshech, that I dwell among the tents of Kedar! 
<a id="6" name="6"></a>
6. Too long have I had my dwelling among those who hate peace. 
<a id="7" name="7"></a>
7. I am for peace, but when I speak, they are for war!
