Psalms 140:10

8 Grant not, O LORD, the desires of the wicked; do not promote their evil plans, lest they be exalted. Selah

9 May the heads of those who surround me be covered in the trouble their lips have caused.

May burning coals fall on them; may they be thrown into the fire, into the miry pits, never to rise again.

11 May no slanderer be established in the land; may calamity hunt down the man of violence.

12 I know that the LORD upholds justice for the poor and defends the cause of the needy.

Dette ble sagt til Israel i en bestemt tid, så det er lurt å lese det sammen med teksten rundt. Les gjerne versene rundt også, for sammenhengen gir ofte mer enn ett vers alene.
