NHEB(i)
1 [For the Chief Musician. A Psalm by David.] Deliver me, LORD, from the evil man. Preserve me from the violent man;
2 those who devise mischief in their hearts. They continually gather themselves together for war.
3 They have sharpened their tongues like a serpent. Viper's poison is under their lips. Selah.
4 LORD, keep me from the hands of the wicked. Preserve me from the violent men who have determined to trip my feet.
5 The proud have hidden a snare for me, they have spread the cords of a net by the path. They have set traps for me. Selah.
6 I said to the LORD, "You are my God." Listen to the cry of my petitions, LORD.
7 LORD, the Lord, the strength of my salvation, you have covered my head in the day of battle.
8 LORD, do not grant the desires of the wicked. Do not let their evil plans succeed, or they will become proud. Selah.
9 As for the head of those who surround me, let the mischief of their own lips cover them.
