HEAR my voice, O God, in my mediation; preserve my life from fear of my enemy.
2 Hide me from the secret plots of the wicked, from the rebellion of the workers of iniquity,
3 Who sharpen their tongue like a sword, and bend their bows to shoot their arrows - bitter words,
4 That they may shoot in secret at the blameless; suddendly they shoot at him and do not fear.
5 They encourage themselve in an evil matter; they talk of laying snares secretly; they say, "Who will see them?"
6 They devise iniquities: "We have perfected a shrewd scheme." Both the inward thought and the heart of man are deep.
7 But God shall shoot at them with arrow, suddenly they shall wounded .
8 So He will make them stumble over their own tongue; all who see them shall flee away.
9 All men shall fear, and shall declare the work of God; for they shall wisely consider His doing.
10 The righteous shall be glad in the LORD, and trust in Him and all the upright in heart shall glory. PSALM 64
