Psalms140

Deliver Me, O Lord, from Evil Men

Psa 140:1  To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David. Deliver me, O LORD, from the evil man: preserve me from the violent man; 

Psa 140:2  Which imagine mischiefs in their heart; continually are they gathered together for war. 

Psa 140:3  They have sharpened their tongues like a serpent; adders’ poison is under their lips. Selah. 

Psa 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. 

Psa 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. 

Psa 140:6  I said unto the LORD, Thou art my God: hear the voice of my supplications, O LORD. 

Psa 140:7  O GOD the Lord, the strength of my salvation, thou hast covered my head in the day of battle. 

Psa 140:8  Grant not, O LORD, the desires of the wicked: further not his wicked device; lest they exalt themselves. Selah. 

Psa 140:9  As for the head of those that compass me about, let the mischief of their own lips cover them. 

Psa 140:10  Let burning coals fall upon them: let them be cast into the fire; into deep pits, that they rise not up again. 

Psa 140:11  Let not an evil speaker be established in the earth: evil shall hunt the violent man to overthrow him. 

Psa 140:12  I know that the LORD will maintain the cause of the afflicted, and the right of the poor. 

Psa 140:13  Surely the righteous shall give thanks unto thy name: the upright shall dwell in thy presence.
