64:1  For the choir director. A Psalm of David. Hear my voice, O God, in my complaint; Preserve my life from dread of the enemy.
64:2  Hide me from the secret counsel of evildoers, From the tumult of those who do iniquity,
64:3  Who have sharpened their tongue like a sword. They aimed bitter speech as their arrow,
64:4  To shoot from concealment at the blameless; Suddenly they shoot at him, and do not fear.
64:5  They hold fast to themselves an evil purpose; They talk of laying snares secretly; They say, "Who can see them?"
64:6  They devise injustices, saying, "We are ready with a well-conceived plot"; For the inward thought and the heart of a man are deep.
64:7  But God will shoot at them with an arrow; Suddenly they will be wounded.
64:8  So they will make him stumble; Their own tongue is against them; All who see them will shake the head.
64:9  Then all men will fear, And they will declare the work of God, And will consider what He has done.
64:10  The righteous man will be glad in the LORD and will take refuge in Him; And all the upright in heart will glory.
