Psalm 140:9-11

New American Standard Bible 1995

⁹ “As for the head of those who surround me,
May the ^(A)mischief of their lips cover them.
¹⁰ “May ^(B)burning coals fall upon them;
May they be ^(C)cast into the fire,
Into ^[a]deep pits from which they ^(D)cannot rise.
¹¹ “May a ^[b]slanderer not be established in the earth;
^(E)May evil hunt the violent man ^[c]speedily.”
