Psalms 140:10-12

10May 1burning coals fall upon them; May they be 2cast into the fire, Into bottomless pits from which they 3cannot rise.11May a 4slanderer not endure on the earth; 5May evil hunt a violent person 6violently.”

12I know that the Lord will 7maintain the cause of the afflicted, And 8justice for the poor.
