1A Song of the Ascents. Unto Jehovah in my distress I have called, And He answereth me.

2O Jehovah, deliver my soul from a lying lip, From a deceitful tongue!

3What doth He give to thee? And what doth He add to thee? O deceitful tongue!

4Sharp arrows of a mighty one, with broom-coals.

5Woe to me, for I have inhabited Mesech, I have dwelt with tents of Kedar.

6Too much hath my soul dwelt with him who is hating peace.

7I am peace, and when I speak they are for war!
