I took my troubles to the LORD;
I cried out to him and he answered my prayer.
Rescue me, O LORD, from liars
and from all deceitful people.
O deceptive tongue, what will God do to you?
How will he increase your punishment?
You will be pierced with sharp arrows
and burned with glowing coals.
Rescue me, O LORD, from liars and from all deceitful people.

their wrongdoing will be exposed in public. (see all Proverbs 26)
