Psalms 120 - The Passion Translation(TPT)

God Helped MeA song of the stairway

1I was desperate for you to help me in my struggles, and you did!

2So come and deliver me now

from this treachery and false accusation.

3O lying deceivers, don’t you know what is your fate?

4You will be pierced through with condemnation

and consumed with burning coals of fire!

5Why am I doomed to live as an alien,

scattered among these cruel savages?

Am I destined to dwell in the darkened tents of desert nomads?

6For too long I’ve had to live among those who hate peace.

7I speak words of peace while they speak words of war,

but they refuse to listen.
