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 leader of the music. A psalm of David.” Hear my voice, O God! when I pray! Preserve my life from the terrors 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 assembly of the wicked, From the brawling crowd of evil-doers!

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

For like a sword they sharpen their tongues, Like arrows they aim their poisoned words,

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

To shoot in secret at the upright; Suddenly do they shoot at him without fear.

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

They prepare themselves for an evil deed; They commune of laying secret snares: “Who,” say they, “will 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 meditate crimes: “We have finished,” say they, “our plans!” The heart and bosom of every one of them are deep.

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

But God will shoot an arrow at them; Suddenly shall they be wounded.

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

Thus their own tongues shall bring them down; All who see them will flee away.

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

Then will all men stand in awe, And declare what God hath done, And attentively consider his work.

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 righteous shall rejoice, and trust in the LORD; All the upright in heart shall glory.
