Psalm 140:3-5
Common English Bible

3 They sharpen their tongues like a snake’s;
    spider poison[a] is on their lips. Selah

4 Protect me from the power of the wicked, Lord!
    Guard me from violent people
        who plot to trip me up!
5 Arrogant people have laid a trap for me with ropes.
    They’ve spread out a net alongside the road.
    They’ve set snares for me. Selah
