¹ In my distress I cry to the Lord,
    that he may answer me:
² "Deliver me, O Lord,
    from lying lips,
    from a deceitful tongue."

³ What shall be given to you?
    And what more shall be done to you,
    you deceitful tongue?
⁴ A warrior's sharp arrows,
    with glowing coals of the broom tree!

⁵ Woe is me, that I am an alien in Meshech,
    that I must live among the tents of Kedar.
⁶ Too long have I had my dwelling
    among those who hate peace.
⁷ I am for peace;
    but when I speak,
    they are for war.
