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.
12 I know that the Lord will maintain the cause of the afflicted, and the right of the poor.
13 Surely the righteous shall give thanks unto thy name; the upright shall dwell in thy presence.
Psalms 141 Intro: A prayer for sincerity, and for safety from snares. (A Psalm of David.)
1 Lord, I cry unto thee; make haste unto me; give ear unto my voice, when I cry unto thee.
2 Let my prayer be set forth before thee as incense; and the lifting up of my hands as the evening sacrifice.
3 Set a watch, O Lord, before my mouth; keep the door of my lips.
4 Incline not my heart to any evil thing, to practice wicked works with men that work iniquity; and let me not eat of their dainties.
5 When the righteous smite me with the word of the Lord it is a kindness; and when they reprove me, it shall be an excellent oil, and shall not destroy my faith; for yet my prayer also shall be for them. I delight not in their calamities.
6 When their judges are overthrown in stony places, they shall hear my words; for they are sweet.
