Deliver me, O Lord, from the evil man. Preserve me from the violent man;

Fifth Book of the Psalms

 
1 
Deliver me, The 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 
The 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, The LORD. +
7 
The LORD, the Lord, the strength of my salvation,you have covered my head in the day of battle. +
8 
The LORD, don't grant the desires of the wicked.Don't 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. +
10 
Let burning coals fall on them.Let them be thrown into the fire,into miry pits, from where they never rise. +
11 
An evil speaker won't be established in the earth.Evil will hunt the violent man to overthrow him. +
12 
I know that the LORD will maintain the cause of the afflicted,and justice for the needy. +
13 
Surely the righteous will give thanks to your name.The upright will dwell in your presence. +
