Keep me from the snares which they have laid for me, and the gins of the workers of iniquity.

Verse 9 is found in chapter 141 of Psalms. Psalm 141 is a prayer of spiritual vigilance. The psalmist asks that his prayer be like incense and that God guard his mouth so he will not participate in the evil of others. He also asks to receive the correction of the righteous as an act of kindness. The request to be preserved from the traps of the wicked shows that integrity requires both inner self-control and external protection.

Bewahre mich vor dem Stricke, den sie mir gelegt haben, und von der Falle der Übeltäter.
Guárdame de los lazos que me han tendido, Y de los armadijos de los que obran iniquidad.
Guárdame de la trampa que me han tendido y de los lazos de quienes hacen el mal.
Garantis-moi du piège qu'ils me tendent, Et des embûches de ceux qui font le mal!
Guardami dal laccio che mi è stato teso, Dalle trappole degli operatori d’iniquità.
Guarda-me dos laços que me armaram; e dos laços corrediços dos que praticam a iniqüidade.
求你保護我脫離惡人為我設的羅網 和作惡之人的圈套!
