A Prayer for Help
1When I was in trouble, I called to the LORD, and he answered me.
2Save me, LORD, from liars and deceivers.
3You liars, what will God do to you? How will he punish you?
4With a soldier's sharp arrows, with red-hot coals!
5Living among you is as bad as living in Meshech or among the people of Kedar.
6I have lived too long with people who hate peace!
7When I speak of peace, they are for war.
