Psalm 140:2-4

Lexham English Bible

² who plan evil things in their heart.
They stir up wars continually.
³ They sharpen their tongue as sharp as a snake’s;
the venom of a viper is under their lips. Selah
⁴ Protect me, O Yahweh, from the hands of the wicked.
Preserve me from violent men,
who have planned to make me stumble.^[a]
