Psalm 140:4

Protect me from the hands of wicked people, O Jehovah. Keep me safe from violent people. They try to trip me.

My God, rescue me from wicked people, from the power of cruel and evil people.

Do not let the foot of pride come upon me. Do not let the hand of the ungodly drive me away.

My steps have remained firmly in your paths. My feet have not slipped.

Keep me as if I were the pupil (apple) of your eye (center of attention). Hide me in the shadow of your wings.

The wicked spies upon the righteous and seeks to kill him.

([Psalm of David]) Listen to my prayer, O God. Do not hide from my plea for favor.

It is not good to accept the wicked, to overthrow the righteous in judgment.
