Lord, guard me from the power of wicked people; protect me from cruel people who plan to trip me up.
I have done what you told me; I have not failed.
Don’t let proud people attack me and the wicked force me away.
You love words that bite and tongues that lie.
so they cannot hear the music of the snake charmer no matter how well he plays.
My God, save me from the power of the wicked and from the hold of evil and cruel people.
It is not good to honor the wicked or to be unfair to the innocent.
