Psalms 120

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