² ‘Deliver me, O Lord,
   from lying lips,
   from a deceitful tongue.’

³ What shall be given to you?
   And what more shall be done to you,
   you deceitful tongue?
⁴ A warrior’s sharp arrows,
   with glowing coals of the broom tree!

⁵ Woe is me, that I am an alien in Meshech,
   that I must live among the tents of Kedar.
⁶ Too long have I had my dwelling
   among those who hate peace.
⁷ I am for peace;
   but when I speak,
   they are for war.
