THE MESSAGE

Psalms 120

A Pilgrim Song

1 1-2 I'm in trouble. I cry to God,
    desperate for an answer:
"Deliver me from the liars, God!
    They smile so sweetly but lie through their teeth."3-4 Do you know what's next, can you see what's coming,
    all you barefaced liars?
Pointed arrows and burning coals
    will be your reward.5-7 I'm doomed to live in Meshech,
    cursed with a home in Kedar,
My whole life lived camping
    among quarreling neighbors.
I'm all for peace, but the minute
    I tell them so, they go to war!
