1 - ?A song of ascents.?
I call on the Lord in my distress, and he answers me.
2 - Save me, Lord, from lying lips and from deceitful tongues.
3 - What will he do to you, and what more besides, you deceitful tongue?
4 - He will punish you with a warrior's sharp arrows, with burning coals of the broom bush.
5 - Woe to me that I dwell in Meshek, that I live among the tents of Kedar!
6 - Too long have I lived among those who hate peace.
7 - I am for peace; but when I speak, they are for war.
