|
|
<p>I cried to God in my distress,<br>
|
|
And by the Lord my prayer was heard;<br>
|
|
O save me, Lord, from lying lips<br>
|
|
And from the false, deceitful word.</p>
|
|
<p>What woe for falsehood can atone,<br>
|
|
Or punish the deceitful tongue,<br>
|
|
The tongue whose speech consumes like fire,<br>
|
|
Whose words like deadly shafts are flung?</p>
|
|
<p>Alas for me, whose lot is cast<br>
|
|
With those who find their joy in strife!<br>
|
|
With those who hate the paths of peace<br>
|
|
I long have dwelt and spent my life.</p>
|
|
<p>In thought and act I am for peace,<br>
|
|
Peace I pursue and ever seek;<br>
|
|
But those about me are for strife,<br>
|
|
Though I in love and kindness speak.</p>
