The Bible
Psalm 120
A Song of Ascents.
1In my distress, I cried to ForeverOne
2Deliver my soul, ForeverOne
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!
6My soul has had her dwelling too long with him who hates peace.
7I am for peace, but when I speak, they are for war.
