“Deliver me, O Lord, from the evil man: preserve me from the violent man;”
“Deliver me, Yahweh, from the evil man. Preserve me from the violent man;”
“For the music director; a psalm of David. O LORD, rescue me from wicked men! Protect me from violent men,”
“I have cried to thee, O Lord, hear me: hearken to my voice, when I cry to thee.”
“ O Lord, take me out of the power of the evil man; keep me safe from the violent man:”
“Deliver me, O Lord, from the evil man: preserve me from the violent man;”
Deliver me, O Jehovah, from the evil man; Preserve me from the violent man:
Who devise mischiefs in their heart; Continually do they gather themselves together for war.
They have sharpened their tongue like a serpent; Adders’ poison is under their lips. [Selah
Keep me, O Jehovah, from the hands of the wicked; Preserve me from the violent man: Who have purposed to thrust aside my steps.
