| 1 | In my distress I cried unto the Lord, and he heard me. |
| 2 | Deliver my soul, O Lord, from lying lips, {and} from a deceitful tongue. |
| 3 | What shall be given unto thee? or what shall be done unto thee, thou false tongue? |
| 4 | Sharp arrows of the mighty, with coals of juniper. |
| 5 | Woe is me, that I sojourn in Mesech, {that} I dwell in the tents of Kedar! |
| 6 | My soul hath long dwelt with him that hateth peace. |
| 7 | I {am for} peace: but when I speak, they {are} for war. |
