| 1 | A song of high degrees. When I was in trouble I called vpon God: and he hearde me. | In my distress I called to the LORD, and he answered me. | A song of ascents. I call on the LORD in my distress, and he answers me. | |
| 2 | Deliuer my soule O God from false lyppes: & from a deceiptful tongue. | Deliver me, O LORD, from lying lips, from a deceitful tongue. | Save me, LORD, from lying lips and from deceitful tongues. | |
| 3 | What doth a deceiptfull tongue vnto thee? what good bryngeth it thee? | What shall be given to you, and what more shall be done to you, you deceitful tongue? | What will he do to you, and what more besides, you deceitful tongue? | |
| 4 | So much as sharpe arrowes of a strong man in thy sydes: with Iuniper coales powred on thy head. | A warrior’s sharp arrows, with glowing coals of the broom tree! | He will punish you with a warrior’s sharp arrows, with burning coals of the broom bush. | |
| 5 | Wo be vnto me that am constrayned to be conuersaunt in Mesech: and to dwell among the tentes of Cedar. | Woe to me, that I sojourn in Meshech, that I dwell among the tents of Kedar! | Woe to me that I dwell in Meshek, that I live among the tents of Kedar! | |
| 6 | My soule hath dwelt long: with hym that hateth peace. | Too long have I had my dwelling among those who hate peace. | Too long have I lived among those who hate peace. | |
| 7 | I am a man of peace: but because I do speake therof, they prepare them selues to battayle. | I am for peace, but when I speak, they are for war! | I am for peace; but when I speak, they are for war. | |
