CHAP. CXX.

1 Dauid prayeth against Doeg, 3 reproueth his tongue, 5 complaineth of his necessary conuersation with the wicked.

¹ [A song of degrees.] In my distresse I cried vnto the Lord: and hee heard me.

² Deliuer my soule, O Lord, from lying lips: and from a deceitfull tongue.

³ What shall be giuen vnto thee? or what shalbe done vnto thee, thou false tongue?³

⁴ Sharpe arrowes of the mightie: with coales of iuniper.⁴

⁵ Woe is me, that I soiourne in Mesech: that I dwell in the tents of Kedar.

⁶ My soule hath long dwelt with him that hateth peace.

⁷ I am for peace: but when I speak, they are for warre.⁷
