Psalms 140:12
chevron_left
chevron_right
1
Deliver me, O
L
ORD
, from the evil man: preserve me from the violent man;
2
Which imagine mischiefs in
their
heart; continually are they gathered together
for
war.
3
They have sharpened their tongues like a serpent; adders’ poison
is
under their lips. Selah.
4
Keep me, O
L
ORD
, from the hands of the wicked; preserve me from the violent man; who have purposed to overthrow my goings.
5
The proud have hid a snare for me, and cords; they have spread a net by the wayside; they have set gins for me. Selah.
6
I said unto the
L
ORD
, Thou
art
my God: hear the voice of my supplications, O
L
ORD
.
7
O
G
OD
the Lord, the strength of my salvation, thou hast covered my head in the day of battle.
8
Grant not, O
L
ORD
, the desires of the wicked: further not his wicked device;
lest
they exalt themselves. Selah.
9
As for
the head of those that compass me about, let the mischief of their own lips cover them.
10
Let burning coals fall upon them: let them be cast into the fire; into deep pits, that they rise not up again.
11
Let not an evil speaker be established in the earth: evil shall hunt the violent man to overthrow
him
.
I know that the
L
ORD
will maintain the cause of the afflicted,
and
the right of the poor.
13
Surely the righteous shall give thanks unto thy name: the upright shall dwell in thy presence.
