Psalm 140:3-5

Lexham English Bible

³They sharpen their tongue as sharp as a snake’s;
the venom of a viper is under their lips. Selah
⁴Protect me, O Yahweh, from the hands of the wicked.
Preserve me from violent men,
who have planned to make me stumble.^[a]
⁵The proud have hidden a trap for me, and cords.
They have spread out a net along the side^[b] of the path.
They have set snares for me. Selah
