Psalms 120
(A song for worship.)
A prayer for the LORD's help
1When I am in trouble, I pray,
2“Come and save me, LORD,
from deceitful liars!”
3What punishment is fitting
for you deceitful liars?
4Your reward should be
sharp and flaming arrows!
5But I must live as a foreigner
among the people of Meshech
and in the tents of Kedar.
6I have spent too much time
living among people
who hate peace.
7I am in favour of peace,
but when I speak of it,
all they want is war.
