1 I am in trouble, God—listen to my prayer!I am afraid of my enemies—save my life!
2 Protect me from the plots of the wicked,from mobs of evil people.
3 They sharpen their tongues like swordsand aim cruel words like arrows.
4 They are quick to spread their shameless lies;they destroy good people with cowardly slander.
5 They encourage each other in their evil plots;they talk about where they will place their traps.“No one can see them,” they say.
