Psalm 120 MTB1537 Bible

Select Translation

1 ((The song of the stairs)) When I am in trouble, I call upon the LORD, and he answereth me.
2 Deliver my soul, O LORD, from lying lips, and from a deceitful tongue.
3 What reward shall be given or done unto thee, thou false tongue?
4 Even mighty and sharp arrows, with hot burning coals.
5 Who is me that my banishment endureth so long: I dwell in the tabernacles of the sorrowful.
6 My soul hath long dwelt among them, that be enemies unto peace.
7 I laboured for peace, but when I spake thereof, they made them to battle.
