Psalm 140:3-5
New International Version - UK
3 They make their tongues as sharp as a serpent’s;
the poison of vipers is on their lips.[a]
4 Keep me safe, Lord, from the hands of the wicked;
protect me from the violent,
who devise ways to trip my feet.
5 The arrogant have hidden a snare for me;
they have spread out the cords of their net
and have set traps for me along my path.
