Psalm 140:4-6

Modern English Version

⁴ Keep me, O Lord, from the hands of the wicked;
    preserve me from the violent men
    who have planned to overthrow me.
⁵ The proud have hid a snare for me,
    and with cords they have spread a net;
    they have set traps for me. Selah

⁶ I said to the Lord, “You are my God;
    hear the voice of my supplications, O Lord.”
