\d A psalm written for people going up to the temple to worship
|
|
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 1 When I was distressed, I called out to Yahweh
|
|
\q2 and he answered me.
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 2 I prayed,
|
|
\q2 "Yahweh, rescue me from those who lie to me and try to deceive me!"
|
|
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 3 You people who lie to me, I will tell you what God will do to you
|
|
\q2 and what he will do to punish you.
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 4 He will punish you when soldiers shoot sharp arrows at you;
|
|
\q2 arrows that were hardened and made sharp
|
|
\q2 over hot coals from the wood of a broom tree.
|
|
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 5 It is terrible for me, living among cruel people
|
|
\q2 like those who live in the regions of Meshech or Kedar.
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 6 I have lived for a long time among people who hate to live with others peacefully.
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 7 Every time I talk about living together peacefully,
|
|
\q2 they talk about starting a war.
