Psalms 35:7

5 May they be like chaff in the wind, as the angel of the LORD drives them away.

6 May their path be dark and slick, as the angel of the LORD pursues.

For without cause they laid their net for me; without reason they dug a pit for my soul.

8 May ruin befall them by surprise; may the net they hid ensnare them; may they fall into the hazard they created.

9 Then my soul will rejoice in the LORD and exult in His salvation.
