Psalms 64

1 Unto the end. A Psalm of David. Hear, O God, my prayer of supplication. Rescue my soul from the fear of the enemy.

in finem psalmus David exaudi Deus orationem meam cum deprecor a timore inimici eripe animam meam

2 You have protected me from the assembly of the malignant, from a multitude of workers of iniquity.

protexisti me a conventu malignantium a multitudine operantium iniquitatem

3 For they have sharpened their tongues like a sword; they have formed their bow into a bitter thing,

quia exacuerunt ut gladium linguas suas intenderunt arcum rem amaram

4 so that they may shoot arrows from hiding at the immaculate.

ut sagittent in occultis inmaculatum

5 They will suddenly shoot arrows at him, and they will not be afraid. They are resolute in their wicked talk. They have discussed hidden snares. They have said, “Who will see them?”

subito sagittabunt eum et non timebunt firmaverunt sibi sermonem nequam narraverunt ut absconderent laqueos dixerunt quis videbit eos

6 They have been searching carefully for iniquities. Their exhaustive search has failed. Man will approach with a deep heart,

scrutati sunt iniquitates defecerunt scrutantes scrutinio accedet homo et cor altum

7 and God will be exalted. The arrows of the little ones have become their wounds,

et exaltabitur Deus sagittae parvulorum factae sunt plagae eorum

8 and their tongues have been weakened against them. All those who saw them have been troubled;

et infirmatae sunt contra eos linguae eorum conturbati sunt omnes qui videbant eos

9 and every man was afraid. And they announced the works of God, and they understood his acts.

et timuit omnis homo et adnuntiaverunt opera Dei et facta eius intellexerunt

10 The just will rejoice in the Lord, and they will hope in him. And all the upright of heart will be praised.

laetabitur iustus in Domino et sperabit in eo et laudabuntur omnes recti corde
