| 4A warrior's sharp arrows with burning charcoal! | 4Like a sharp arrow from a warrior, along with fiery coals from juniper trees! |
| 5What misery that I have stayed in Meshech, that I have lived among the tents of Kedar! | 5How terrible for me, that I am an alien in Meshech, that I reside among the tents of Kedar! |
| 6I have dwelt too long with those who hate peace. | 6I have resided too long with those who hate peace. |
| 7I am for peace; but when I speak, they are for war. | 7I am in favor of peace; but when I speak, they are in favor of war. |
