Psalm 64

- To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David.

Hear my voice, O God, in my prayer:
preserve my life from fear of the enemy.

Hide me from the secret counsel of
the wicked; from the insurrection

of the workers of iniquity:

Who whet their tongue like a
sword, and bend their bows to shoot

their arrows, even bitter words:

That they may shoot in secret
at the perfect: suddenly do

they shoot at him, and fear not.

They encourage themselves
in an evil matter:

privily; they say, Who shall see them?

They search out iniquities; they
accomplish a diligent search: both

the inward thought of every one
of them, and the heart, is deep.

But God shall shoot at them with an
arrow; suddenly shall they be wounded.

So they shall make their own
tongue to fall upon themselves:

all that see them shall flee away.

And all men shall fear, and shall
declare the work of God; for they

shall wisely consider of his doing.

The righteous shall be glad in the
Lord, and shall trust in him; and

all the upright in heart shall glory.
