Psalm 120
NET Parallel ISV [BSB CSB ESV HCS KJV ISV NAS NET NIV NLT HEB]
NET BibleInternational Standard Version
1A song of ascents. In my distress I cried out to the LORD and he answered me. 1I cried to the LORD in my distress, and he responded to me.
2I said, "O LORD, rescue me from those who lie with their lips and those who deceive with their tongue. 2"LORD, deliver me from lips that lie and tongues that deceive."
3How will he severely punish you, you deceptive talker? 3What will be given to you, and what will be done to you, you treacherous tongue?
4Here's how! With the sharp arrows of warriors, with arrowheads forged over the hot coals. 4Like a sharp arrow from a warrior, along with fiery coals from juniper trees!
5How miserable I am! For I have lived temporarily in Meshech; I have resided among the tents of Kedar. 5How terrible for me, that I am an alien in Meshech, that I reside among the tents of Kedar!
6For too long I have had to reside with those who hate peace. 6I have resided too long with those who hate peace.
7I am committed to peace, but when I speak, they want to make war. 7I am in favor of peace; but when I speak, they are in favor of war.
