Psalms 140:4 Context
2Which imagine mischiefes in their heart: continually are they gathered together for warre. 3They haue sharpned their tongues like a serpent: adders poison is vnder their lips. Selah. 4Keepe me, O Lord, from the hands of the wicked, preserue me from the violent man: who haue purposed to ouerthrow my goings. 5The proude haue hid a snare for me and cords, they haue spread a net by the way side: they haue set grinnes for me. Selah. 6I said vnto the Lord, Thou art my God: heare the voyce of my supplications, O Lord.
