What Psalm 140 says

Psalm 140 is an essential prayer in our life, especially when we go through difficult times and can't make the decisions David says:

1 Deliver me, O Lord, from the evil man; keep me from the violent man,

2. who think evil in their hearts; continually gather together for war.

3 They have sharpened their tongues like a serpent; the poison of vipers is under their lips.

4 Keep me, O Lord, from the hand of the wicked; keep me from the violent man; who have set out to overthrow my steps.

5 The proud have laid snares and ropes for me; they have spread my net by the wayside; they have laid snares for me.

6 I said to the Lord, "You are my God; hear the voice of my supplications, O Lord.

7 O God the Lord, strength of my salvation, You have covered my head in the day of battle.

8. do not grant, O Lord, to the wicked his desires; do not promote his evil purpose, lest he exalt himself.

9 As for the head of those who surround me, let the wickedness of their lips cover them.

10 Let burning coals fall on them; let them be cast into the fire, into deep pits, that they may not rise again.

11 The man of evil tongue will not stand firm on earth; evil will pursue the violent man until he is banished.

12 I know that the Lord will support the cause of the oppressed, and the right of the needy.

13 So the righteous shall praise your name; the upright shall dwell in your presence.

The more decisions to be made, the more fervently we should pray to God. We all know that the Lord protects us, if He is for us, who can be against us? We should especially pray Psalm 140, that the Lord will embrace our paths, that our steps will not be slippery.
