1: In my distress I cried unto Jehovah, And he answered me. 2: Deliver my soul, O Jehovah, from lying lips, [And] from a deceitful tongue. 3: What shall be given unto thee, and what shall be done more unto thee, Thou deceitful tongue? 4: Sharp arrows of the mighty, With coals of juniper. 5: Woe is me, that I sojourn in Meshech, That I dwell among the tents of Kedar! 6: My soul hath long had her dwelling With him that hateth peace. 7: I am [for] peace: But when I speak, they are for war.
