¹ In my distress I cried out
to the Lord and he answered me.
² I said, "O Lord, rescue me
from those who lie with their lips
and those who deceive with their tongue.
³ How will he severely punish you,
you deceptive talker?
⁴ Here's how! With the sharp arrows of warriors,
with arrowheads forged over the hot coals.
⁵ How miserable I am!
For I have lived temporarily in Meshech;
I have resided among the tents of Kedar.
⁶ For too long I have had to reside
with those who hate peace.
⁷ I am committed to peace,
but when I speak, they want to make war.
