Psalm 141:7-9
Revised Standard Version

7 As a rock which one cleaves and shatters on the land,
    so shall their bones be strewn at the mouth of Sheol.[a]

8 But my eyes are toward thee, O Lord God;
    in thee I seek refuge; leave me not defenseless!
9 Keep me from the trap which they have laid for me,
    and from the snares of evildoers!
