Psalms 140NO HIGHLIGHTSHIGHLIGHTS 140:1 <> Deliver me, O LORD, from evil men; Preserve me from violent men, 140:2 Who plan evil things in their hearts; They continually gather together for war. 140:3 They sharpen their tongues like a serpent; The poison of asps is under their lips. Selah 140:4 Keep me, O LORD, from the hands of the wicked; Preserve me from violent men, Who have purposed to make my steps stumble. 140:5 The proud have hidden a snare for me, and cords; They have spread a net by the wayside; They have set traps for me. Selah 140:6 I said to the LORD: ''You are my God; Hear the voice of my supplications, O LORD. 140:7 O GOD the Lord, the strength of my salvation, You have covered my head in the day of battle. 140:8 Do not grant, O LORD, the desires of the wicked; Do not further his wicked scheme, Lest they be exalted. Selah 140:9 ''As for the head of those who surround me, Let the evil of their lips cover them; 140:10 Let burning coals fall upon them; Let them be cast into the fire, Into deep pits, that they rise not up again. 140:11 Let not a slanderer be established in the earth; Let evil hunt the violent man to overthrow him.'' 140:12 I know that the LORD will maintain The cause of the afflicted, And justice for the poor. 140:13 Surely the righteous shall give thanks to Your name; The upright shall dwell in Your presence.
