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