Psalms 140
- 1 O Lord, take me out of the power of the evil man; keep me safe from the violent man:
- 2 For their hearts are full of evil designs; and they are ever making ready causes of war.
- 3 Their tongues are sharp like the tongue of a snake; the poison of snakes is under their lips. (Selah.)
- 4 O Lord, take me out of the hands of sinners; keep me safe from the violent man: for they are designing my downfall.
- 5 The men of pride have put secret cords for my feet; stretching nets in my way, so that they may take me with their tricks. (Selah.)
- 6 I have said to the Lord, You are my God: give ear, O Lord, to the voice of my prayer.
- 7 O Lord God, the strength of my salvation, you have been a cover over my head in the day of the fight.
- 8 O Lord, give not the wrongdoer his desire; give him no help in his evil designs, or he may be uplifted in pride. (Selah.)
- 9 As for those who come round me, let their heads be covered by the evil of their lips.
- 10 Let burning flames come down on them: let them be put into the fire, and into deep waters, so that they may not get up again.
- 11 Let not a man of evil tongue be safe on earth: let destruction overtake the violent man with blow on blow.
- 12 I am certain that the Lord will take care of the cause of the poor, and of the rights of those who are troubled.
- 13 Truly, the upright will give praise to your name: the holy will have a place in your house.
