Prayer for Deliverance from the Treacherous.

A Song of Ascents.

1
In my trouble I cried to the LORD,
And He answered me.

2
Deliver my soul, O LORD, from lying lips,
From a deceitful tongue.

3
What shall be given to you, and what more shall be done to you,
You deceitful tongue?

4
Sharp arrows of the warrior,
With the {burning} coals of the broom tree.

5
Woe is me, for I sojourn in Meshech,
For I dwell among the tents of Kedar!

6
Too long has my soul had its dwelling
With those who hate peace.

7
I am {for} peace, but when I speak,
They are for war.
