< Psalms 64 >
1 To the choirmaster a psalm of David. Hear O God voice my in complaint my from dread of an enemy you will preserve life my.
For the choirmaster. A Psalm of David. Hear, O God, my voice of complaint; preserve my life from dread of the enemy.
2 You will hide me from [the] secret counsel of evil-doers from [the] unrest of [those who] do wickedness.
Hide me from the scheming of the wicked, from the mob of workers of iniquity,
3 Who they sharpen like sword tongue their they bend arrow their a word bitter.
who sharpen their tongues like swords and aim their bitter words like arrows,
4 To shoot in secret places [the] blameless suddenly they shoot at him and not they are afraid.
ambushing the innocent in seclusion, shooting suddenly, without fear.
5 They strengthen for themselves - a matter evil they speak to hide snares they say who? will he see them.
They hold fast to their evil purpose; they speak of hiding their snares. “Who will see them?” they say.
6 They plot injustice we have finished a plot plotted and [the] inner being of a person and [the] heart [is] deep.
They devise injustice and say, “We have perfected a secret plan.” For the inner man and the heart are mysterious.
7 And he shot at them God an arrow suddenly they will be wounds their.
But God will shoot them with arrows; suddenly they will be wounded.
8 And they caused to stumble him [is] on them tongue their they will shudder every [one who] looks on them.
They will be made to stumble, their own tongues turned against them. All who see will shake their heads.
9 And they were afraid all humankind and they declared [the] deed[s] of God and work his they will consider.
Then all mankind will fear and proclaim the work of God; so they will ponder what He has done.
10 Let him rejoice [the] righteous in Yahweh and he will take refuge in him and let them boast all [people] upright of heart.
Let the righteous rejoice in the LORD and take refuge in Him; let all the upright in heart exult.
