120:1 A song of ascents: I called to Adonai in my distress, and he answered me.
120:2 Rescue me, Adonai, from lips that tell lies, from a tongue full of deceit.
120:3 What has he in store for you, deceitful tongue? What more will he do to you?
120:4 A warrior’s sharp arrows, with red-hot coals from a broom tree.
120:5 How wretched I am, that I’m an alien in Meshekh, that I must live among the tents of Keidar!
120:6 I have had to live far too long with those who hate peace.
120:7 I am all for peace; but when I speak, they are for war.
