Excerpt

1 In my distress I cried unto the Lord , and he heard me. 2 Deliver my soul, O Lord , from lying lips, and from a deceitful tongue. 3 What shall be given unto thee? or what shall be done unto thee, thou false tongue? 4 Sharp arrows of the mighty, with coals of juniper. 5 Woe is me, that I sojourn in Mesech , that I dwell in the tents of Kedar ! 6 My soul hath long dwelt with him that hateth peace. 7 I am for peace: but when I speak, they are for war . TG Deceit . Gen. 10:2 ; Ezek. 27:13 . Jer. 49:29 (28–29) . Isa. 60:7 .
