Context
Psalm 140
140:1 For the music director ; a psalm of David . O Lord , rescue me from wicked men ! Protect me from violent men ,
140:2 who plan ways to harm me . All day long they stir up conflict .
140:3 Their tongues wound like a serpent ; a viper’s venom is behind their lips . (Selah )
140:4 O Lord , shelter me from the power of the wicked ! Protect me from violent men , who plan to knock me over .
140:5 Proud men hide a snare for me; evil men spread a net by the path ; they set traps for me. (Selah )
140:6 I say to the Lord , “You are my God .” O Lord , pay attention to my plea for mercy !
140:7 O sovereign Lord , my strong deliverer , you shield my head in the day of battle .
140:8 O Lord , do not let the wicked have their way ! Do not allow their plan to succeed when they attack! (Selah )
140:9 As for the heads of those who surround me– may the harm done by their lips overwhelm them!
140:10 May he rain down fiery coals upon them! May he throw them into the fire ! From bottomless pits they will not escape .
140:11 A slanderer will not endure on the earth ; calamity will hunt down a violent man and strike him down .
