7I said to the Lord, Thou art my God; hearken, O Lord, to the voice of my supplication.
8O Lord God, the strength of my salvation; thou hast screened my head in the day of battle.
9Deliver me not, O Lord, to the sinner, according to my desire: they have devised mischief against me; forsake me not, lest they should be exalted. Pause.
10As for the head of them that compass me, the mischief of their lips shall cover them.
11Coals of fire shall fall upon them on the earth; and thou shalt cast them down in afflictions: they shall not bear up under them.
12A talkative man shall not prosper on the earth: evils shall hunt the unrighteous man to destruction.
