International Standard Version | King James Bible |
1I cried to the LORD in my distress, and he responded to me. | 1A Song of degrees. In my distress I cried unto the LORD, and he heard me. |
2"LORD, deliver me from lips that lie and tongues that deceive." | 2Deliver my soul, O LORD, from lying lips, and from a deceitful tongue. |
3What will be given to you, and what will be done to you, you treacherous tongue? | 3What shall be given unto thee? or what shall be done unto thee, thou false tongue? |
4Like a sharp arrow from a warrior, along with fiery coals from juniper trees! | 4Sharp arrows of the mighty, with coals of juniper. |
5How terrible for me, that I am an alien in Meshech, that I reside among the tents of Kedar! | 5Woe is me, that I sojourn in Mesech, that I dwell in the tents of Kedar! |
6I have resided too long with those who hate peace. | 6My soul hath long dwelt with him that hateth peace. |
7I am in favor of peace; but when I speak, they are in favor of war. | 7I am for peace: but when I speak, they are for war. |
