ASV(i)
1 For the Chief Musician. A Psalm of David.
Deliver me, O Jehovah, from the evil man;
Preserve me from the violent man: 2 Who devise mischiefs in their heart;
Continually do they gather themselves together for war. 3 They have sharpened their tongue like a serpent;
Adders' poison is under their lips. [Selah 4 Keep me, O Jehovah, from the hands of the wicked;
Preserve me from the violent man:
Who have purposed to thrust aside my steps. 5 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 6 I said unto Jehovah, Thou art my God:
Give ear unto the voice of my supplications, O Jehovah. 7 O Jehovah the Lord, the strength of my salvation,
Thou hast covered my head in the day of battle. 8 Grant not, O Jehovah, the desires of the wicked;
Further not his evil device, [lest] they exalt themselves. [Selah
