Psalm 140:4-9
New King James Version
4 (A)Keep me, O Lord, from the hands of the wicked;
Preserve me from violent men,
Who have purposed to make my steps stumble.
5 The proud have hidden a (B)snare for me, and cords;
They have spread a net by the wayside;
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.
7 O God the Lord, the strength of my salvation,
You have [a]covered my head in the day of battle.

Do not further his wicked scheme,
(C)Lest they be exalted. Selah
9 “As for the head of those who surround me,
Let the evil of their lips cover them;
