Psalm 140:1

Deliver me, Yahweh, from the evil man. Preserve me from the violent man;

He rescues me from my enemies. Yes, you lift me up above those who rise up against me. You deliver me from the violent man.

Rescue me, my God, from the hand of the wicked, from the hand of the unrighteous and cruel man.

An evil speaker won't be established in the earth. Evil will hunt the violent man to overthrow him.

Arise, Yahweh, confront him. Cast him down. Deliver my soul from the wicked by your sword;

Vindicate me, God, and plead my cause against an ungodly nation. Oh, deliver me from deceitful and wicked men.

Deliver me from my enemies, my God. Set me on high from those who rise up against me.

Yahweh, keep me from the hands of the wicked. Preserve me from the violent men who have determined to trip my feet.

Yahweh, how long will I cry, and you will not hear? I cry out to you "Violence!" and will you not save?
