"O LORD, do not let the wicked have their way! Do not allow their plan to succeed when they attack!(Selah)"
— Psalms 140:8, NET Bible
“Grant not, O Lord, the desires of the wicked: further not his wicked device; lest they exalt themselves. Selah.”
“Grant not, O Jehovah, the desires of the wicked; Further not his evil device, lest they exalt themselves. [Selah”
“Yahweh, don't grant the desires of the wicked. Don't let their evil plans succeed, or they will become proud. Selah.”
“But to thee, O Lord, Lord, are my eyes: in thee have I put my trust, take not away my soul.”
“O Lord, give not the wrongdoer his desire; give him no help in his evil designs, or he may be uplifted in pride. (Selah.)”
“Grant not, O Lord, the desires of the wicked: further not his wicked device; lest they exalt themselves. Selah.”
Proud men hide a snare for me; evil men spread a net by the path; they set traps for me.(Selah)
I say to the LORD,“You are my God.” O LORD, pay attention to my plea for mercy!
O Sovereign LORD, my strong deliverer, you shield my head in the day of battle.
O LORD, do not let the wicked have their way! Do not allow their plan to succeed when they attack!(Selah)
As for the heads of those who surround me– may the harm done by their lips overwhelm them!
May he rain down fiery coals upon them! May he throw them into the fire! From bottomless pits they will not escape.
A slanderer will not endure on the earth; calamity will hunt down a violent man and strike him down.
