For the Chief Musician. A Psalm of David.
1
Hear my voice, O God, in my
complaint:
Preserve my life from fear of the enemy.
2
Hide me from the secret
counsel of evil-doers,
From the tumult of the workers of iniquity;
3
Who have whet their tongue
like a sword,
And have aimed their arrows, even bitter words,
4
That they may shoot in secret
places at the perfect:
Suddenly do they shoot at him, and fear not.
5
They encourage themselves in
an evil purpose;
They commune of laying snares privily;
They say, Who will see them?
6
They search out iniquities;
We have accomplished, [say they], a diligent search:
And the inward thought and the heart of every one is deep.
7
But God will shoot at them;
With an arrow suddenly shall they be wounded.
8
So they shall be made to
stumble, their own tongue being
against them:
All that see them shall wag the head.
9
And all men shall fear;
And they shall declare the work of God,
And shall wisely consider of his doing.
10
The righteous shall be glad
in Jehovah, and shall take
refuge in him;
And all the upright in heart shall glory.
