The Book of Psalms

 

Chapter 64

 

 

1.

 

{To the chief Musician. A Psalm of David.} Hear, O God, my voice in my plaint; preserve my life from fear of the enemy:

    
 
 

2.

 

Hide me from the secret counsel of evil-doers, from the tumultuous crowd of the workers of iniquity,

    
 
 

3.

 

Who have sharpened their tongue like a sword, [and] have aimed their arrow, a bitter word;

    
 
 

4.

 

That they may shoot in secret at the perfect: suddenly do they shoot at him, and fear not.

    
 
 

5.

 

They encourage themselves in an evil matter, they concert to hide snares; they say, Who will see them?

    
 
 

6.

 

They devise iniquities: We have it ready, the plan is diligently sought out. And each one's inward [thought] and heart is deep.

    
 
 

7.

 

But God will shoot an arrow at them: suddenly are they wounded;

    
 
 

8.

 

By their own tongue they are made to fall over one another: all that see them shall flee away.

    
 
 

9.

 

And all men shall fear, and shall declare God's doing; and they shall wisely consider his work.

    
 
 

10.

 

The righteous shall rejoice in Jehovah, and trust in him; and all the upright in heart shall glory.
