Psalm 140:3-5
New International Version - UK

3 They make their tongues as sharp as a serpent’s;
    the poison of vipers is on their lips.[a]

4 Keep me safe, Lord, from the hands of the wicked;
    protect me from the violent,
    who devise ways to trip my feet.
5 The arrogant have hidden a snare for me;
    they have spread out the cords of their net
    and have set traps for me along my path.
