Psalms 140:7-13

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

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

⁹As for the head of those that encompass me, let the mischief of their own lips cover them.

¹⁰Let burning coals fall on them; let them be cast into the fire; into deep waters, that they rise not up again.

¹¹Let not the man of evil tongue be established in the earth: evil shall hunt the man of violence to his ruin.

¹²I know that Jehovah will maintain the cause of the afflicted one, the right of the needy.

¹³Yea, the righteous shall give thanks unto thy name; the upright shall dwell in thy presence.
