Psalm 120:1

Verse 1 of 7. The 120th of 150 chapters in Psalms, in Poetry and Wisdom.

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!
