Translation

World English Bible (WEB), a modern translation.

1A Song of Ascents. In my distress, I cried to the LORD. He answered me.

2Deliver my soul, LORD, from lying lips, from a deceitful tongue.

3What will be given to you, and what will be done more to you, you deceitful tongue?

4Sharp arrows of the mighty, with coals of juniper.

5Woe is me, that I live in Meshech, that I dwell among the tents of Kedar!

6My soul has had her dwelling too long with him who hates peace.

7I am for peace, but when I speak, they are for war.

Meditate

Psalm 120 meditation and reflection

This first song of the pilgrim road begins far from home, among people who want a fight. Where do you feel weary of conflict? Tell God you long for peace.
