Psalms 140:6-11 King James 2000 (KJ2000)

6. I said unto the LORD, you are my God: hear the voice of my supplications, O LORD.

7. O GOD the Lord, the strength of my salvation, you have covered my head in the day of battle.

8. Grant not, O LORD, the desires of the wicked: further not his wicked device; lest 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 him.
