64:1 For the leader. A psalm of David.I

64:2 O God, hear my anguished voice; from the foes I dread protect my life.

64:3 Hide me from the malicious crowd, the mob of evildoers.

64:4 They sharpen their tongues like swords, ready their bows for arrows of poisonwords.

64:5 They shoot at the innocent from ambush, shoot without risk, catch themunawares.

64:6 They resolve on their wicked plan; they conspire to set snares; they say:"Who will see us?"

64:7 They devise wicked schemes, conceal the schemes they devise; the designs oftheir hearts are hidden.II

64:8 But God will shoot arrows at them and strike them unawares.

64:9 They will be brought down by their own tongues; all who see them will shaketheir heads.

64:10 Then all will fear and proclaim God’s deed, pondering what has been done.

64:11 The just will rejoice and take refuge in the LORD; all the upright will gloryin their God.
