Psalm 140:4-6

New Century Version

⁴ Lord, guard me from the power of wicked people;
    protect me from cruel people
    who plan to trip me up.
⁵ The proud hid a trap for me.
    They spread out a net beside the road;
    they set traps for me. Selah

⁶ I said to the Lord, “You are my God.”
    Lord, listen to my prayer for help.
