Psalm 140:4

Protect me, Lord,
from the clutches of the wicked.
Keep me safe from violent men
who plan to make me stumble.

Deliver me, my God, from the power of the wicked,
from the grasp of the unjust and oppressive.

Do not let the foot of the arrogant man come near me
or the hand of the wicked one drive me away.

My steps are on Your paths;
my feet have not slipped.

Protect me as the pupil of Your eye;
hide me in the shadow of Your wings

The wicked one lies in wait for the righteous
and seeks to kill him;

For the choir director: with stringed instruments. A Davidic Maskil.God, listen to my prayer
and do not ignore my plea for help.

It is not good to show partiality to the guilty
by perverting the justice due the innocent.
