1 |
A Song of the going up.
In my trouble my cry went up to the Lord, and he gave me an answer. --
|
2 |
O Lord, be the saviour of my soul from false lips, and from the tongue of deceit. --
|
3 |
What punishment will he give you? what more will he do to you, you false tongue? --
|
4 |
Sharp arrows of the strong, and burning fire. --
|
5 |
Sorrow is mine because I am strange in Meshech, and living in the tents of Kedar. --
|
6 |
My soul has long been living with the haters of peace. --
|
7 |
I am for peace: but when I say so, they are for war. --
