11Rescue me, O Lord, from evil men; Preserve me from 2violent men2Who 3devise evil things in their hearts; They 4continually stir up wars.3They 5sharpen their tongues as a serpent; 6Poison of a viper is under their lips. 7Selah.

48Keep me, O Lord, from the hands of the wicked; 9Preserve me from violent men Who have 10purposed to 1112trip up my feet.
