Psalms 64
1HEAR, O God, my prayer when I invoke Thee. From the fear of an enemy deliver my soul.
2Thou hast sheltered me from the conspiracy of wicked men—from the multitude of them who are working iniquity.
3They sharpened their tongues like a sword: they bent a bow, a bitter thing, to shoot secretly a blameless man:
4They are to shoot him suddenly and not be afraid.
5They strengthened for themselves an evil matter: they talked of hiding snares, saying, Who can see us?
6They searched for iniquity: they failed in the search. A man is to come [before Thee] with a deep heart; and God is to be exalted.
7Their wounds became the dart of infants:
8when their tongues vilified Him. All that saw them were troubled:
9Then every man was afraid. Then they rehearsed the works of God; then they understood His doings.
10Let the righteous rejoice in the Lord and trust in Him: and let all the upright in heart be praised.
