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.

To the chief music-maker. A Psalm. Of David. O God, let the voice of my grief come to your ear: keep my life from the fear of those who are against me.

2 You will hide me from [the] secret counsel of evil-doers from [the] unrest of [those who] do wickedness.

Keep me safe from the secret purpose of wrongdoers; from the band of the workers of evil;

3 Who they sharpen like sword tongue their they bend arrow their a word bitter.

Who make their tongues sharp like a sword, and whose arrows are pointed, even bitter words;

4 To shoot in secret places [the] blameless suddenly they shoot at him and not they are afraid.

So that in secret they may let loose their arrows at the upright, suddenly and unseen.

5 They strengthen for themselves - a matter evil they speak to hide snares they say who? will he see them.

They make themselves strong in an evil purpose; they make holes for secret nets; they say, Who will see it,

6 They plot injustice we have finished a plot plotted and [the] inner being of a person and [the] heart [is] deep.

Or make discovery of our secret purpose? The design is framed with care; and the inner thought of a man, and his heart, is deep.

7 And he shot at them God an arrow suddenly they will be wounds their.

But God sends out an arrow against them; suddenly they are wounded.

8 And they caused to stumble him [is] on them tongue their they will shudder every [one who] looks on them.

The evil of their tongues is the cause of their fall; all those who see them are shaking their heads at them.

9 And they were afraid all humankind and they declared [the] deed[s] of God and work his they will consider.

And in fear men make public the works of God; and giving thought to his acts they get wisdom.

10 Let him rejoice [the] righteous in Yahweh and he will take refuge in him and let them boast all [people] upright of heart.

The upright will be glad in the Lord and have hope in him; and all the lovers of righteousness will give him glory.
