1A Song of Ascents. In my distress I called to the Lord, and he answered me. (خر 34:24; 1مل 12:27; إش 30:29)2Deliver me, O Lord, from lying lips, from a deceitful tongue.3What shall be given to you, and what more shall be done to you, you deceitful tongue? (1صم 3:17)4A warrior’s sharp arrows, with glowing coals of the broom tree! (مز 45:5; مز 127:4; مز 140:10; أم 25:22; إر 50:9)5Woe to me, that I sojourn in Meshech, that I dwell among the tents of Kedar! (تك 10:2; تك 25:13; نش 1:5; إش 60:7; إر 49:28; حز 27:13; حز 27:21; حز 38:2; حز 39:1)6Too long have I had my dwelling among those who hate peace.7I am for peace, but when I speak, they are for war! (مز 109:4)
