Prayer for Deliverance from the Treacherous.
A Song of †Ascents.
1  AIn my trouble I cried to the Lord,
And He answered me.
2  Deliver my soul, O Lord, from Alying lips,
From a Bdeceitful tongue.
3  What shall be given to you, and what more shall be done to you,
You Adeceitful tongue?
4  ASharp arrows of the warrior,
With the burning Bcoals of the broom tree.
5  Woe is me, for I sojourn in AMeshech,
For I dwell among the Btents of CKedar!
6 Too long has my soul had its dwelling
With those who Ahate peace.
7 I Aam for peace, but when I speak,
They are Bfor war.
