Chapter 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. |
