Psalms, Chapter 64
1. "To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David." Hear my voice, O God, in my prayer: preserve my life from fear of the enemy.
2. Hide me from the secret counsel of the wicked; from the rebellion of the workers of iniquity:
3. Who sharpen their tongue like a sword, and bend their bows to shoot their arrows, even bitter words:
4. That they may shoot in secret at the perfect: suddenly do they shoot at him, and do not fear.
5. They encourage themselves in an evil matter: they talk of laying snares secretly; they say, Who shall see them?
6. They search for iniquity; they accomplish a diligent search: both the inward thought of every one of them, and the heart, is deep.
7. But God shall shoot at them with an arrow; suddenly shall they be wounded.
8. So they shall make their own words to fall upon themselves: all that see them shall flee away.
9. And all men shall fear, and shall declare the work of God; for they shall wisely consider his doing.
10. The righteous shall be glad in the LORD, and shall trust in him; and all the upright in heart shall glory.
