120
1 “A psalm of steps.” In my distress I called upon the LORD, And he answered me. 2 O LORD! deliver me from lying lips, From the deceitful tongue! 3 What profit to thee, Or what advantage to thee, is the false tongue? 4 It is like the sharp arrows of the mighty man; Like coals of the juniper. 5 Alas for me, that I sojourn in Mesech, That I dwell in the tents of Kedar! 6 Too long have I dwelt With them that hate peace! 7 I am for peace; yet, when I speak for it, They are for war.
