Reflections on The Psalms

Psalm 120

(Psalms 120) A Song of degrees. In my distress I cried unto the LORD, and he heard me. {2} Deliver my soul, O LORD, from lying lips, and from a deceitful tongue. {3} What shall be given unto thee? or what shall be done unto thee, thou false tongue? {4} Sharp arrows of the mighty, with coals of juniper. {5} Woe is me, that I sojourn in Mesech, that I dwell among the tents of Kedar! {6} My soul hath long dwelt with him that hateth peace. {7} I am for peace: but when I speak, they are for war.

The curious thing about this passage is that Kedar is the second son of Ishmael. I am not sure about the reference to Meshech, but Kedar is an Arab. One wonders how often the Israeli’s sing this psalm. They have gone to the peace table time and again looking for peace. But the people across the table only use the "peace process" as an instrument to gain time for war.
