< 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.
Unto the end, a psalm for David. Hear, O God, my prayer, when I make supplication to thee: deliver my soul from the fear of the enemy.
2 You will hide me from [the] secret counsel of evil-doers from [the] unrest of [those who] do wickedness.
Thou hast protected me from the assembly of the malignant; from the multitude of the workers of iniquity.
3 Who they sharpen like sword tongue their they bend arrow their a word bitter.
For they have whetted their tongues like a sword; they have bent their bow a bitter thing,
4 To shoot in secret places [the] blameless suddenly they shoot at him and not they are afraid.
To shoot in secret the undefiled.
5 They strengthen for themselves - a matter evil they speak to hide snares they say who? will he see them.
They will shoot at him on a sudden, and will not fear: they are resolute in wickedness. They have talked of hiding snares; they have said: Who shall see them?
6 They plot injustice we have finished a plot plotted and [the] inner being of a person and [the] heart [is] deep.
They have searched after iniquities: they have failed in their search. Man shall come to a deep heart:
7 And he shot at them God an arrow suddenly they will be wounds their.
And God shall be exalted. The arrows of children are their wounds:
8 And they caused to stumble him [is] on them tongue their they will shudder every [one who] looks on them.
And their tongues against them are made weak. All that saw them were troubled;
9 And they were afraid all humankind and they declared [the] deed[s] of God and work his they will consider.
And every man was afraid. And they declared the works of God: and understood his doings.
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 just shall rejoice in the Lord, and shall hope in him: and all the upright in heart shall be praised.
