Book 19 : PSALMS - Chapter 140
140:001
Which imagine mischiefs in their heart; continually are they
gathered together for war
140:002
They have sharpened their tongues like a serpent; adders'
poison is under their lips. Selah
140:003
Keep me, O LORD, from the hands of the wicked; preserve me
from the violent man; who have purposed to overthrow my
goings
140:004
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
140:005
I said unto the LORD, Thou art my God: hear the voice of my
supplications, O LORD
140:006
O GOD the Lord, the strength of my salvation, thou hast
covered my head in the day of battle
140:007
Grant not, O LORD, the desires of the wicked: further not his
wicked device; lest they exalt themselves. Selah
140:008
As for the head of those that compass me about, let the
mischief of their own lips cover them
140:009
Let burning coals fall upon them: let them be cast into the
fire; into deep pits, that they rise not up again
140:010
Let not an evil speaker be established in the earth: evil
shall hunt the violent man to overthrow him
140:011
I know that the LORD will maintain the cause of the afflicted,
and the right of the poor
140:012
Surely the righteous shall give thanks unto thy name: the
upright shall dwell in thy presence
