1 Plea for Relief from Bitter Foes A Song of Ascents. In (Is. 53:6); Jer. 50:6; Matt. 18:12; Luke 15:4; (1 Pet. 2:25) 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 Jon. 2:2 Meshech, Gen. 10:2;1 Chr. 1:5; Ezek. 27:13; 38:2, 3; 39:1 That I dwell among the tents of Kedar!
6 My soul has dwelt too long With one who hates peace.
7 I am for peace; But when I speak, they are for war.
