Guard me, O Lord, from the hands of the wicked;
    protect me from the violent
    who have planned my downfall.
The arrogant have hidden a trap for me,
    and with cords they have spread a net;[a]
    along the road they have set snares for me.Selah

I say to the Lord, ‘You are my God;
    give ear, O Lord, to the voice of my supplications.’
