Psalm 140 - Psalm one 40.

To the chief musician.

A Psalm of David.

To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David.

Deliver me, O Lord, from the evil
man: preserve me from the violent man;

Which imagine mischiefs in
their heart; continually are

they gathered together for war.

They have sharpened their
tongues like a serpent; adders'

poison is under their lips.

Selah.

Keep me, O Lord, from the hands of the
wicked; preserve me from the violent man;

who have purposed to overthrow my goings.

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.

I said unto the Lord, Thou
art my God: hear the voice

of my supplications, O Lord.

O God the Lord, the strength of
my salvation, thou hast covered

my head in the day of battle.

Grant not, O Lord, the desires of
the wicked: further not his wicked

device; lest they exalt themselves.

Selah.

As for the head of those that
compass me about, let the mischief

of their own lips cover them.

Let burning coals fall upon them: let
them be cast into the fire; into deep

pits, that they rise not up again.

Let not an evil speaker be established
in the earth: evil shall hunt

the violent man to overthrow him.

I know that the Lord will maintain
the cause of the afflicted,

and the right of the poor.

Surely the righteous shall give
thanks unto thy name: the upright

shall dwell in thy presence.
