120:1 {A Song of degrees.} In my trouble I called unto Jehovah, and he answered me.

120:2 Jehovah, deliver my soul from the lying lip, from the deceitful tongue.

120:3 What shall be given unto thee, what shall be added unto thee, thou deceitful tongue?

120:4 Sharp arrows of a mighty one, with burning coals of broom-wood.

120:5 Woe is me, that I sojourn in Meshech, that I dwell among the tents of Kedar!

120:6 My soul hath long dwelt with them that hate peace.
