Psalms 140:3-5

³Their tongues are as sharp as those of snakes; viper's venom is on their lips. Selah.

⁴Lord, please keep me from falling into the hands of the wicked; protect me especially from those who are violent, who are plotting my downfall.

⁵Proud people have hidden a trap for me—they have strung out a net on the path, they have set snares to catch me. Selah.
