4
Yahweh, keep me from the hands of the wicked. Preserve me from the violent men: Who have determined to trip my feet.
5
The proud have hidden a snare for me, They have spread the cords of a net by the path. They have set traps for me. Selah.
6
I said to Yahweh, "You are my God." Listen to the cry of my petitions, Yahweh.
7
Yahweh, the Lord, the strength of my salvation, You have covered my head in the day of battle.
8
Yahweh, don`t grant the desires of the wicked. Don`t let their evil plans succeed, or they will become proud. Selah.
9
As for the head of those who surround me, Let the mischief of their own lips cover them.
