Psalms 64:2-10 ▼

2 Hide me from the council of evil-doers; From the tumult of the workers of iniquity;

3 Who have whet their tongue like a sword, And have aimed their arrow, a poisoned word;

4 That they may shoot in secret places at the blameless; Suddenly do they shoot at him, and fear not.

5 They encourage one another in an evil matter; They converse of laying snares secretly; They ask, who would see them.

6 They search out iniquities, they have accomplished a diligent search; Even in the inward thought of every one, and the deep heart.

7 But God doth shoot at them with an arrow suddenly; Thence are their wounds.

8 So they make their own tongue a stumbling unto themselves; All that see them shake the head.

9 And all men fear; And they declare the work of God, And understand His doing.

10 The righteous shall be glad in the LORD, and shall take refuge in Him; And all the upright in heart shall glory.
