A Song of Ascents. [1] In my distress I called to the LORD, and he answered me. [2] Deliver me, O LORD, from lying lips, from a deceitful tongue. [3] What shall be given to you, and what more shall be done to you, you deceitful tongue? [4] A warrior’s sharp arrows, with glowing coals of the broom tree! [5] Woe to me, that I sojourn in Meshech, that I dwell among the tents of Kedar! [6] Too long have I had my dwelling among those who hate peace. [7] I am for peace, but when I speak, they are for war!
