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