“Yahweh, don’t grant the desires of the wicked.Don’t let their evil plans succeed, or they will become proud. Selah.”
Psalm 140:8 (WEB)
Context Reading
6I said to Yahweh, “You are my God.”Listen to the cry of my petitions, Yahweh. 7Yahweh, the Lord, the strength of my salvation,you have covered my head in the day of battle. 8Yahweh, don’t grant the desires of the wicked.Don’t let their evil plans succeed, or they will become proud. Selah. 9As for the head of those who surround me,let the mischief of their own lips cover them. 10Let burning coals fall on them.Let them be thrown into the fire,into miry pits, from where they never rise.
