- 1
- A Song of the Ascents.
Unto Jehovah in my distress I have called, And He answereth me.
- 2
- O Jehovah, deliver my soul from a lying lip, From a deceitful tongue!
- 3
- What doth He give to thee? And what doth He add to thee? O deceitful tongue!
- 4
- Sharp arrows of a mighty one, with broom-coals.
- 5
- Wo to me, for I have inhabited Mesech, I have dwelt with tents of Kedar.
- 6
- Too much hath my soul dwelt with him who is hating peace.
- 7
- I [am] peace, and when I speak they [are] for war!
