1
A Song of Ascents. In my distress I cried to 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 to you, Or what shall be done to you, You false tongue?
4
Sharp arrows of the warrior, With coals of the broom tree!
5
Woe is me, that I dwell in Meshech, That I dwell among the tents of Kedar!
6
My soul has dwelt too long With one who hates peace.
