64:1  For the Music Director. A Psalm of David. Hear my voice, O God, in my complaint; guard my life from dread of the enemy.
64:2  Hide me from the secret counsel of the wicked, from the throng of the workers of iniquity;
64:3  they sharpen their tongue like a sword, and bend their bows to shoot their arrows—bitter words,
64:4  that they may shoot in secret at the blameless; suddenly they shoot at him and do not fear.
64:5  They harden themselves in an evil matter; they talk privately of laying snares; they say, “Who will see them?”
64:6  They devise injustice, saying “We have perfected a secret plot.” Both the inward thought of man and the heart are deep.
64:7  But God will suddenly shoot them with an arrow; they will be wounded.
64:8  They will bring ruin on themselves by their own tongues; all who see them will flee away.
64:9  All people will fear, and declare the work of God; they will wisely consider His deeds.
64:10  The righteous will be glad in the Lord, and seek refuge in Him, and all the upright in heart will glory.
