Psalm 140:1

King James Version (Oxford) 1769

Deliver me, O LORD, from the evil man: Preserve me from the violent man;

See the chapter Copy

Keep me, O LORD, from the hands of the wicked; Preserve me from the violent man; Who have purposed to overthrow my goings.

He delivereth me from mine enemies: Yea, thou liftest me up above those that rise up against me: Thou hast delivered me from the violent man.

Deliver me, O my God, out of the hand of the wicked, Out of the hand of the unrighteous and cruel man.

Let not an evil speaker be established in the earth: Evil shall hunt the violent man to overthrow him.

Arise, O LORD, disappoint him, cast him down: Deliver my soul from the wicked, which is thy sword:

Judge me, O God, and plead my cause against an ungodly nation: O deliver me from the deceitful and unjust man.
