Psalms 120

Prayer for Rescue from the Treacherous.
1 (C1)I cried to the LORD in my trouble,
And He answered me.
2 Rescue my soul, LORD, from (C1)lying lips,
From a (C2)deceitful tongue.
3 What will He give to you, and what more will He do to you,
You (C1)deceitful tongue?
4 (C1)Sharp arrows of the warrior,
With the burning (C2)coals of the broom tree!
5 Woe to me, for I reside in (C1)Meshech,
For I have settled among the (C2)tents of (C3)Kedar!
6 Too long has my soul had its dwelling
With those who (C1)hate peace.
7 I (C1)am for peace, but when I speak,
They are (C2)for war.
