Rescue me, O Lord, from the evil man; deliver me from the unjust man. Who have devised injustice in their hearts; all the day they prepared war. They have sharpened their tongue as [the tongue] of a serpent; the poison of asps is under their lips. Pause. Keep me, O Lord, from the hand of the sinner; rescue me from unjust men; who have purposed to overthrow my goings. The proud have hid a snare for me, and have stretched out ropes [for] snares for my feet; they set a stumbling block for me near the path. Pause. I said to the Lord, You are my God; hearken, O Lord, to the voice of my supplication. O Lord God, the strength of my salvation; You have covered my head in the day of battle. Deliver 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. [As for] the head of them that surround me, the mischief of their lips shall cover them. Coals of fire shall fall upon them on the earth; and You shall cast them down in afflictions; they shall not bear up [under them]. A talkative man shall not prosper on the earth: evils shall hunt the unrighteous man to destruction. I know that the Lord will maintain the cause of the poor, and the right of the needy ones. Surely the righteous shall give thanks to Your name: the upright shall dwell in Your presence.
