New Testament

Psalms 120:1-7 Common English Bible (CEB)

1. I cried out to the Lord when I was in trouble(and he answered me):

2. "Lord, deliver me from lying lipsand a dishonest tongue!"

3. What more will be given to you,what more will be done to you,you dishonest tongue?

4. Just this: a warrior’s sharpened arrows,coupled with burning coals from a wood fire!

5. Oh, I’m doomedbecause I have been an immigrant in Meshech,because I’ve made my home among Kedar’s tents.

6. I’ve lived far too longwith people who hate peace.

7. I’m for peace,but when I speak, they are for war.
