Psalms 140:2 Which imagine mischiefs in their heart; continually are they gathered together for war. Psalms 140:3 They have sharpened their tongues like a serpent; adders' poison is under their lips. Selah. Psalms 140:4 Keep me, O LORD, from the hands of the wicked; preserve me from the violent man; who have purposed to overthrow my goings. Psalms 140:5 The proud have hid a snare for me, and cords; they have spread a net by the wayside; they have set gins for me. Selah. Psalms 140:6 I said unto the LORD, Thou art my God: hear the voice of my supplications, O LORD. Psalms 140:7 O GOD the Lord, the strength of my salvation, thou hast covered my head in the day of battle. Psalms 140:8 Grant not, O LORD, the desires of the wicked: further not his wicked device; lest they exalt themselves. Selah. Psalms 140:9 As for the head of those that compass me about, let the mischief of their own lips cover them. Psalms 140:10 Let burning coals fall upon them: let them be cast into the fire; into deep pits, that they rise not up again. Psalms 140:11 Let not an evil speaker be established in the earth: evil shall hunt the violent man to overthrow him.
