Psalms 120:3 
What shall be given unto thee? or what shall be done unto thee, thou false tongue? 


120:3. What shall be given unto thee? It ought to be something great to make it worthwhile to work in so foul an atmosphere and to ruin one’s soul. The liar will have no welcome recompense: he will meet with his deserts; but what will they be? What punishment can equal his crime? The psalmist seems lost to suggest a fitting punishment. 
Or what shall be done unto thee, thou false tongue? The law of retaliation can hardly meet the case, since the slanderer is too black to be blackened. He fights with weapons which true men cannot touch. What will God do with lying tongues? He has uttered his most terrible threats against them, and he will terribly execute them in due time.
