- 1
- {A Song of degrees.}
In my trouble I called unto Jehovah, and he answered me.
- 2
- Jehovah, deliver my soul from the lying lip, from the deceitful tongue.
- 3
- What shall be given unto thee, what shall be added unto thee, thou deceitful tongue?
- 4
- Sharp arrows of a mighty one, with burning coals of broom-wood.
- 5
- Woe is me, that I sojourn in Meshech, that I dwell among the tents of Kedar!
- 6
- My soul hath long dwelt with them that hate peace.
- 7
- I [am for] peace;
but when I speak, *they* [are] for war.
