Psalm 120 | English Standard Version

Deliver Me, O Lord

1 A Song of Ascents. In my distress I called to the Lord, and he answered me. 2 Deliver me, O Lord, from lying lips, from a deceitful tongue. 3 What shall be given to you, and what more shall be done to you, you deceitful tongue? 4 A warrior’s sharp arrows, with glowing coals of the broom tree! 5 Woe to me, that I sojourn in Meshech, that I dwell among the tents of Kedar! 6 Too long have I had my dwelling among those who hate peace. 7 I am for peace, but when I speak, they are for war!

Nya Levande Bibeln

Omgiven av lögnare

1 I mina svårigheter ropade jag till Gud om hjälp, och han hjälpte mig! 2 Herre, befria mig från alla lögnare och bedragare! 3 Ni lögnare, hur tror ni att ni ska kunna undgå Guds straff? 4 Nej, han ska straffa er med skarpa pilar och bränna er med glödande kol. 5 Att bo bland er är värre än att bo bland Meseks och Kedars folk. Alltför länge har jag bott bland folk som hatar fred. 7 Jag, däremot älskar freden, men så fort jag talar om den börjar ni strida.
