A Psalm a Day – Psalm 120

Psalm 120 New International Version

A song of ascents.

1 I call on the Lord in my distress,
    and he answers me.
2 Save me, Lord,
    from lying lips
    and from deceitful tongues.

3 What will he do to you,
    and what more besides,
    you deceitful tongue?
4 He will punish you with a warrior’s sharp arrows,
    with burning coals of the broom bush.

5 Woe to me that I dwell in Meshek,
    that I live among the tents of Kedar!
6 Too long have I lived
    among those who hate peace.
7 I am for peace;
    but when I speak, they are for war.

One thought on “A Psalm a Day – Psalm 120”

  1. For Bellshill Central Church with special reference to Reverend Kevin de Beer. Thank you for posting Psalm 120, which has great meaning for me as a Christian. The psalmist appears to have many enemies. May our Lord guard me from telling untruths and listening to bad tongues. I am on my own life’s journey and pray for our Lord’s mercy,His loving care and guidance. I am unaware of having enemies. With love and my humble prayers.
