Psalms 140:6 DBY

⁴  Keep me, O Jehovah, from the hands of the wicked [man], preserve me from the violent man, who devise to overthrow my steps.

⁵  The proud have hidden a snare for me, and cords; they have spread a net by the way-side; they have set traps for me. Selah.

⁶  I have said unto Jehovah, Thou art my ùGod: give ear, O Jehovah, to the voice of my supplications.

⁷  Jehovah, the Lord, is the strength of my salvation: thou hast covered my head in the day of battle.

⁸  Grant not, O Jehovah, the desire of the wicked; further not his device: they would exalt themselves. Selah.
