Psalm 140:4

Preserve me, Jehovah, from the hands of the wicked, From one of violence Thou keepest me, Who have devised to overthrow my steps.

O my God, cause me to escape From the hand of the wicked, From the hand of the perverse and violent.

Let not a foot of pride meet me, And a hand of the wicked let not move me.

To uphold my goings in Thy paths, My steps have not slidden.

Keep me as the apple, the daughter of the eye; In shadow of Thy wings thou dost hide me.

The wicked is watching for the righteous, And is seeking to put him to death.

To the Overseer with stringed instruments. -- An instruction, by David. Give ear, O God, to my prayer, And hide not from my supplication.

Acceptance of the face of the wicked is not good, To turn aside the righteous in judgment.
