Psalms 140:5


Psalms 140:4 Psalms 140:5 (KJV) Psalms 140:6
Keep me, O LORD, from the hands of the wicked; preserve me from the violent man; who have purposed to overthrow my goings.
The proud have hid a snare for me, and cords; they have spread a net by the wayside; they have set gins for me. Selah.
I said unto the LORD, Thou [art] my God: hear the voice of my supplications, O LORD.
