^{1 Ref} To the Overseer. -- A Psalm of David. Deliver me, O Jehovah, from an evil man, From one of violence Thou keepest me.

^{2 Ref} Who have devised evils in the heart, All the day they assemble `for' wars.

^{3 Ref} They sharpened their tongue as a serpent, Poison of an adder `is' under their lips. Selah.

^{4 Ref} Preserve me, Jehovah, from the hands of the wicked, From one of violence Thou keepest me, Who have devised to overthrow my steps.
