A Song of Ascents. In my distress I called unto the LORD, And He answered me.
A song of ascents. In my distress I cried to the LORD, and He answered me.
O LORD, deliver my soul from lying lips, From a deceitful tongue.
Deliver my soul, O LORD, from lying lips and a deceitful tongue.
What shall be given unto thee, and what shall be done more unto thee, Thou deceitful tongue?
What will He do to you, and what will be added to you, O deceitful tongue?
Sharp arrows of the mighty, With coals of broom.
Sharp arrows will come from the warrior, with burning coals of the broom tree!
Woe is me, that I sojourn with Meshech, That I dwell beside the tents of Kedar!
Woe to me that I dwell in Meshech, that I live among the tents of Kedar!
My soul hath full long had her dwelling With him that hateth peace.
Too long have I dwelt among those who hate peace.
I am all peace; But when I speak, they are for war.
I am in favor of peace; but when I speak, they want war.
