Psalm 120 - American Standard Version 20151 {\b A Song of Ascents.}\par\par\tab In my distress I cried unto Jehovah,\par\tab And he answered me. 2 Deliver my soul, O Jehovah, from lying lips,\par\tab {\i And} from a deceitful tongue. 3 What shall be given unto thee, and what shall be done more unto thee,\par\tab Thou deceitful tongue? 4 Sharp arrows of the mighty,\par\tab With coals of juniper. 5 Woe is me, that I sojourn in Meshech,\par\tab That I dwell among the tents of Kedar! 6 My soul hath long had her dwelling\par\tab With him that hateth peace. 7 I am {\i for} peace:\par\tab But when I speak, they are for war. |
