O GOD
<03069>

the Lord
<0136>_,

the strength
<05797>

of my salvation
<03444>_,

thou hast covered
<05526> (8804)

my head
<07218>

in the day
<03117>

of battle
<05402>_.

140:8

Grant
<05414> (8799)

not, O LORD
<03068>_,

the desires
<03970>

of the wicked
<07563>_:

further
<06329> (8686)

not his wicked device
<02162>_;

[lest] they exalt
<07311> (8799)

themselves. Selah
<05542>_.

{lest...: or, let them not be exalted}

140:9

[As for] the head
<07218>

of those that compass me about
<04524>_,

let the mischief
<05999>

of their own lips
<08193>

cover
<03680> (8762)

them.

140:10

Let burning coals
<01513>

fall
<04131> (8735) (8675) <04131> (8686)

upon them: let them be cast
<05307> (8686)

into the fire
<0784>_;

into deep pits
<04113>_,

that they rise not up again
<06965> (8799)_.

140:11

Let not an evil speaker
<0376> <03956>

be established
<03559> (8735)

in the earth
<0776>_:

evil
<07451>

shall hunt
<06679> (8799)

the violent
<02555>

man
<0376>

to overthrow
<04073>

[him]. {an...: or, an evil speaker (Heb. a man of tongue), a wicked man of violence, be established in the earth: let him be hunted to his overthrow}

I know
<03045> (8804)

that the LORD
<03068>

will maintain
<06213> (8799)

the cause
<01779>

of the afflicted
<06041>_,

Surely the righteous
<06662>

shall give thanks
<03034> (8686)

unto thy name
<08034>_:

the upright
<03477>

shall dwell
<03427> (8799)

in thy presence
<06440>_.
