A song of ascents. 2
120:1 In my distress I cried out
to the Lord and he answered me.
120:2 I said, 3 “O Lord, rescue me 4
from those who lie with their lips 5
and those who deceive with their tongue. 6
120:3 How will he severely punish you,
you deceptive talker? 7
120:4 Here’s how! 8 With the sharp arrows of warriors,
with arrowheads forged over the hot coals. 9
