Lord, save me from the evil man

Author: N. Hymnal: The Whole Book of Psalms #CXL (1790) Hymnal Title: The Whole Book of Psalms Lyrics: 1 Lord, save me from the evil man, and from his pride and spite: And from all those also who do in violence delight. 2 Who ever more on me make war, their tongues, lo, they have whet Like serpents underneath their lips is adders poison set. 3 Keep me, O Lord, from wicked hands, preserve me to abide Free from the cruel man that means to cause my steps to slide. 4 The proud have laid a snare for me, and they have spread a net With cords in my path-way, and gins for me also have set. 5 Therefore I said unto the Lord, thou art my God alone, Hear me therefore, O hear the voice wherewith I pray and moan. 6 O Lord my God, thou only art the strength that saveth me: My head in day of battle hath been cover'd still by thee. 7 Let not, O Lord, the wicked have the end of his desire: Perform not his ill thought, lest he with pride be set on fire. 8 Of them that compass me about, the chiefest of them all: Lord, let the mischief of their lips, upon their own heads fall. 9 Let coals fall on them, let them be east in consuming flame: And in deep pit, that never they may rise out of the same. 10 For no backbiters shall on earth be set in stable plight: And evil to destruction still shall hunt the cruel wight. 11 I know the Lord th' afflicted will revenge, and judge the poor: The just shall praise thy name, and shall dwell with thee evermore.
