Psalms 140:8-13

⁸Grant not, O Jehovah, the desires of the wicked, His wicked device bring not forth, They are high. Selah.

⁹The chief of my surrounders, The perverseness of their lips covereth them.

¹⁰They cause to fall on themselves burning coals, Into fire He doth cast them, Into deep pits — they arise not.

¹¹A talkative man is not established in the earth, One of violence — evil hunteth to overflowing.

¹²I have known that Jehovah doth execute The judgment of the afflicted, The judgment of the needy.

¹³Only — the righteous give thanks to Thy name, The upright do dwell with Thy presence!
