Psalms 120 - Contemporary English Version (Anglicised) 2012（CEVUK）

(A song for worship.)A prayer for the LORD

's help

1When I am in trouble, I pray,

2“Come and save me, LORD,

from deceitful liars!”

3What punishment is fitting

for you deceitful liars?

4Your reward should be

sharp and flaming arrows!

5But I must live as a foreigner

among the people of Meshech

and in the tents of Kedar.

6I have spent too much time

living among people

who hate peace.

7I am in favour of peace,

but when I speak of it,

all they want is war.
