Psalms 140:4-9 Keepe mee, O Lord, from the handes of the wicked: preserue mee from the cruell man, which purposeth to cause my steppes to slide.

Geneva⁽ⁱ⁾ ⁴ Keepe mee, O Lord, from the handes of the wicked: preserue mee from the cruell man, which purposeth to cause my steppes to slide. ⁵ The proude haue layde a snare for me, and spred a nette with cordes in my pathway, and set grennes for me. Selah. ⁶ Therefore I saide vnto the Lord, Thou art my God: heare, O Lord, the voyce of my prayers. ⁷ O Lord God the strength of my saluation, thou hast couered mine head in the day of battel. ⁸ Let not the wicked haue his desire, O Lord: performe not his wicked thought, least they be proude. Selah. ⁹ As for the chiefe of them, that compasse me about, let the mischiefe of their owne lippes come vpon them.
