Salmo 120

Great Psalm

1 I cry out to the Lord in my distress, and he answers me.

2 Lord, deliver me from lying lips and treacherous tongue!

3 What will he give you? How will you repay him, O deceitful tongue?

4 He will punish her with arrows sharpened by a warrior, with burning coals of sandalwood.

5 Woe is me, that I live as a stranger in Meshech, that I dwell among the tents of Kedar!

6 I have lived too long among those who hate peace.

7 I am a man of peace; but even if I speak of peace, they only speak of war.
