140:1 Deliver me, Yahweh, from the evil man.
Preserve me from the violent man;
140:2 those who devise mischief in their hearts.
They continually gather themselves together for war.
140:3 They have sharpened their tongues like a serpent.
Viper’s poison is under their lips.
Selah.
140:4 Yahweh, keep me from the hands of the wicked.
Preserve me from the violent men who have determined to trip my feet.
140:5 The proud have hidden a snare for me,
they have spread the cords of a net by the path.
They have set traps for me.
Selah.
140:6 I said to Yahweh, “You are my God.”
Listen to the cry of my petitions, Yahweh.
140:7 Yahweh, the Lord, the strength of my salvation,
you have covered my head in the day of battle.
140:8 Yahweh, don’t grant the desires of the wicked.
Don’t let their evil plans succeed, or they will become proud.
Selah.
140:9 As for the head of those who surround me,
let the mischief of their own lips cover them.
140:10 Let burning coals fall on them.
Let them be thrown into the fire, into miry pits,
from where they never rise.
140:11 An evil speaker won’t be established in the earth.
Evil will hunt the violent man to overthrow him.
140:12 I know that Yahweh will maintain the cause of the afflicted,
and justice for the needy.
140:13 Surely the righteous will give thanks to your name.
The upright will dwell in your presence.
