A Prayer for the Lord's Help

¹ When I am in trouble, I pray,
² "Come and save me, Lord,
from deceitful liars!"

³ What punishment is fitting
    for you deceitful liars?
⁴     Your reward should be
    sharp and flaming arrows!

⁵ But I must live as a foreigner
among the people of Meshech
    and in the tents of Kedar.^[a]
⁶ I have spent too much time
    living among people
    who hate peace.
⁷ I am in favor of peace,
but when I speak of it,
    all they want is war.
