   David prayeth for deliverance from the wicked.
   A Song of degrees.
   1 In my distress I cried unto 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 unto thee? or what shall be done unto thee, thou false tongue?
   
4 Sharp arrows of the mighty, with coals of juniper.
   
5 Woe is me, that I sojourn in Mesech, that I dwell in the tents of Kedar!
   
6 My soul hath long dwelt with him that hateth peace.
   
7 I am for peace; but when I speak, they are for war.
