1«A Song of degrees.» In my distress I cried unto the LORD, and he heard me. 2Deliuer my soule, O Lord, from lying lippes, and from a deceitfull tongue. 3What shall be given unto thee? or what shall be done unto thee, thou false tongue? 4Sharp arrows of the mighty, with coals of juniper. 5Woe is me, that I sojourn in Mesech, [that] I dwell in the tents of Kedar! 6My soule hath too long dwelt with him that hateth peace. 7I [am for] peace: but when I speak, they [are] for war.
