64:1 Hear my voice, O God, in my complaint; preserve my life from the dread enemy. 64:2 Hide me from the secret plots of the wicked, from the scheming of evildoers, 64:3 who whet their tongues like swords, who aim bitter words like arrows, 64:4 shooting from ambush at the blameless; they shoot suddenly and without fear. 64:5 They hold fast to their evil purpose; they talk of laying snares secretly, thinking, "Who can see us? 64:6 Who can search out our crimes? We have thought out a cunningly conceived plot." For the human heart and mind are deep. 64:7 But God will shoot his arrow at them; they will be wounded suddenly. 64:8 Because of their tongue he will bring them to ruin; all who see them will shake with horror. 64:9 Then everyone will fear; they will tell what God has brought about, and ponder what he has done. 64:10 Let the righteous rejoice in the LORD and take refuge in him. Let all the upright in heart glory. 64:11
