Psalms 64

Psalm 64

Prayer for Rescue from Secret Enemies.

¹Hear my voice, God, in my complaint; Protect my life from dread of the enemy.

²Hide me from the secret discussion of evildoers, From the restlessness of the workers of injustice,

³Who have sharpened their tongues like a sword. They aimed bitter speech as their arrows,

⁴To shoot from concealment at the innocent; Suddenly they shoot at him, and do not fear.

⁵They make firm for themselves an evil purpose; They talk of setting snares secretly; They say, “Who can see them?”

⁶They devise injustices, saying, “We are ready with a well-conceived plot”; For the inward thought and the heart of a person are deep.

⁷¶But God will shoot an arrow at them; Suddenly they will be wounded.

⁸So they will make him stumble; Their own tongue is against them; All who see them will shake their heads.

⁹Then all people will fear, And they will declare the work of God, And will consider what He has done.

¹⁰The righteous person will be glad in the Lord and take refuge in Him; And all the upright in heart will boast.
