    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?* What shall be given…: or, What shall the deceitful tongue give unto thee? or, what shall is profit thee?† done: Heb. added
    4  Sharp arrows of the mighty, with coals of juniper.‡ Sharp…: or, It is as the sharp arrows of the mighty man, 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.§ for peace: or, a man of peace
