Psalm 64

(1)  To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David. 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.
