Psalms 64
1 HEAR my voice, O God, as I pray to thee; preserve my life from fear of mine enemy.2 Hide me from the wickedness of the evil one; from the corruption of the workers of iniquity,3 Who whet their tongues like a sword, and charge their words with poison like an arrow,4 That they may shoot in secret at the innocent; suddenly do they shoot at him, and fear not.5 They encourage themselves with evil speech; they plan to hide snares; they say, Who shall see us?6 They plan wickedness, but they are destroyed in order to consume evil from among men and from the depths of the heart.
7 But God is great; suddenly he shall shoot at them with an arrow;8 So shall their tongues be silenced, and all that see them shall be frightened.9 And all men shall fear, and shall declare the work of God; for they shall wisely consider the work of his hands.10 The righteous shall be glad in the LORD, and shall trust in him; and all the upright in heart shall glorify him.
