Psalm 140:6-8

The Voice

⁶ “Eternal One,” I said, “You are my one and only God.
    Hear me, O Eternal, hear my humble cry for rescue.
⁷ O Lord, Eternal One, power of my deliverance,
    You are my helmet in the day of battle.
⁸ So do not fulfill the desires of these evildoers, Eternal One;
    do not advance their evil schemes, lest they brag about their successes.
