| 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.
