Deliver Me, O Lord
A Song of Ascents.
1
In my distress I called to the LORD, and he answered me.
2
Deliver me, O LORD, from lying lips, from a deceitful tongue.
3
What shall be given to you, 1and what more shall be done to you, you deceitful tongue?
6
Too long have I had my dwelling among those who hate peace.
7
8I am for peace, but when I speak, they are for war!
