Psalms 140:5-11

The proud have hidden a trap for me, and cords; They have spread a net by the wayside; They have set traps for me. Selah. ¶I said to the LORD, “You are my God; Listen to the voice of my supplications, O LORD. “O GOD the Lord, the strength of my salvation, You have covered my head in the day of battle. “Do not grant, O LORD, the desires of the wicked; Do not further their evil device, that they not be exalted. Selah. ¶“Those who surround me raise their heads; May the mischief of their own lips come upon them. “Let burning coals fall upon them; Let them be thrown into the fire, Into deep [water] pits from which they cannot rise. “Do not let a slanderer be established in the earth; Let evil quickly hunt the violent man [to overthrow him and stop his evil acts].”
