1	To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David. Deliver me, O LORD, from the evil man: preserve me from the violent man;
			2	Which imagine mischiefs in heart; continually are they gathered together war.
			3	They have sharpened their tongues like a serpent; adders' poison under their lips. Selah.
			4	Keep me, O LORD, from the hands of the wicked; preserve me from the violent man; who have purposed to overthrow my goings.
			5	The proud have hid a snare for me, and cords; they have spread a net by the wayside; they have set gins for me. Selah.
			6	I said unto the LORD, Thou my God: hear the voice of my supplications, O LORD.
			7	O GOD the Lord, the strength of my salvation, thou hast covered my head in the day of battle.
			8	Grant not, O LORD, the desires of the wicked: further not his wicked device; they exalt themselves. Selah.
			9	As for the head of those that compass me about, let the mischief of their own lips cover them.
			10	Let burning coals fall upon them: let them be cast into the fire; into deep pits, that they rise not up again.
			11	Let not an evil speaker be established in the earth: evil shall hunt the violent man to overthrow .
			12	I know that the LORD will maintain the cause of the afflicted, the right of the poor.
			13	Surely the righteous shall give thanks unto thy name: the upright shall dwell in thy presence.
