A Psalm of Ascent
1.  I cried out to Yahweh in my distress and He answered me.
2.  Deliver my soul, O Yahweh, from the lips of deception, from a deceitful tongue.
3.  What shall be given to you, and what more can be added to you, O treacherous tongue?
4.  With the sharp arrows of a warrior, with the burning coal of the broom tree.
5.  Woe to me, for I dwell in Meshech; I dwell in the tents of Kêdâr.
6.  I have dwelled for too long with those who hate peace.
7.  I am for peace, but they talk of war.
