1 (Shir HaMa'alot — Song of Ascents)
In my tzoros I cried unto Hashem,
and He heard me.
2 Save my nefesh, Hashem, from sefat sheker (lying lips),
and from lashon remiyyah (a tongue of deceit).
3 What shall be given unto thee?
Or what shall be done unto thee, thou lashon remiyyah?
4 Sharp khitzim (arrows) of the gibbor,
with burning (charcoal) coals of the broom plant.
5 Woe is me, that I sojourn in Meshech,
that I dwell in the ohalim of Kedar!
6 My nefesh hath long dwelt
with him that hateth shalom.
7 I am for shalom;
but when I speak, they are for milchamah (war).
