Psalm 140:3-5
New Catholic Bible
3 who plan evil schemes in their hearts[a]
and stir up strife continually.
4 Their tongues[b] are as sharp as those of a serpent,
while the venom of vipers is on their lips. Selah
5 Guard me, O Lord, from the hands of the wicked;
protect me from those who are violent,
who are determined to cause my downfall.
