Appropriate Bible verse

In my "Bible in a Year" reading, today's passage seems somehow appropriate:

[Psalm 140]

¹ Deliver me, O LORD, from evildoers;
protect me from those who are violent,
² who plan evil things in their minds
and stir up wars continually.
³ They make their tongue sharp as a snake's,
and under their lips is the venom of vipers.
Selah
⁴ Guard me, O LORD, from the hands of the wicked;
protect me from the violent
who have planned my downfall.
⁵ The arrogant have hidden a trap for me,
and with cords they have spread a net,
along the road they have set snares for me.
Selah
⁶ I say to the LORD, “You are my God;
give ear, O LORD, to the voice of my supplications.â€
⁷ O LORD, my Lord, my strong deliverer,
you have covered my head in the day of battle.
⁸ Do not grant, O LORD, the desires of the wicked;
do not further their evil plot.
Selah
⁹ Those who surround me lift up their heads;
let the mischief of their lips overwhelm them!
¹⁰ Let burning coals fall on them!
Let them be flung into pits, no more to rise!
¹¹ Do not let the slanderer be established in the land;
let evil speedily hunt down the violent!
¹² I know that the LORD maintains the cause of the needy
and executes justice for the poor.
¹³ Surely the righteous shall give thanks to your name;
the upright shall live in your presence.

Based on things that are going on right now with The Harbour and Eklektos, this seemed to be well-timed.
