✧A Song of degrees. In my distress I cried unto the LORD, and he heard me. ✧2Deliver my soul, O LORD, from lying lips, [and] from a deceitful tongue. ✧3What shall be given unto thee? or what shall be done unto thee, thou false tongue? ✧4Sharp arrows of the mighty, with coals of juniper. ✧5Woe is me, that I sojourn in Mesech, [that] I dwell in the tents of Kedar! ✧6My soul hath long dwelt with him that hateth peace. ✧7I [am for] peace: but when I speak, they [are] for war.
