1Palveteekonna laul. Ma hüüdsin oma kitsikuses Issanda poole ja tema vastas mulle.
1In my distress, I cried to Yahweh. He answered me.
2Issand, vabasta mu hing valetajaist huultest ja petisest keelest!
2Deliver my soul, Yahweh, from lying lips, from a deceitful tongue.
3Mida anda sulle, mida lisada sulle, petis keel?
3What will be given to you, and what will be done more to you, you deceitful tongue?
4Sangari teravaid nooli koos leetpõõsa tuliste sütega.
4Sharp arrows of the mighty, with coals of juniper.
5Häda mulle, et ma võõrana elan Mesekis, et ma viibin Keedari telkide keskel!
5Woe is me, that I live in Meshech, that I dwell among the tents of Kedar!
6Juba kaua on mu hing elanud nende juures, kes vihkavad rahu.
6My soul has had her dwelling too long with him who hates peace.
7Mina tahan rahu! Aga kui ma räägin, on nemad valmis sõjaks.
7I am for peace, but when I speak, they are for war.
