64 |
| 1 | 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 insurrection of the workers of iniquity: |
| 3 | Who whet 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 fear not. |
| 5 | They encourage themselves in an evil
matter: they commune of laying snares privily; they say, Who shall see
them? |
| 6 | They search out
iniquities; 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 tongue 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 of his
doing. |
| 10 | The righteous
shall be glad in the LORD, and shall trust in him; and all the upright in heart
shall glory. |
