Psalm 140:9-11
1599 Geneva Bible

9 As for [a]the chief of them that compass me about, let the mischief of their own lips come upon them.

10 Let coals fall upon them: let [b]him cast them into the fire, and into the deep pits that they rise not.

11 For the backbiter shall not be established upon the earth, evil shall [c]hunt the cruel man to destruction.
