Psalms 64Book 19 of 66 · 10 verses · MBT primary, NKJV fallback where MBT pending
- Hear my voice, O God, in my meditation; preserve my life from fear of the enemy.
- Hide me from the secret plots of the wicked, from the rebellion of the workers of iniquity.
- Who sharpen their tongue like a sword, and bend their bows to shoot their arrows—bitter words,
- That they may shoot in secret at the blameless; suddenly they shoot at him and do not fear.
- They encourage themselves in an evil matter; they talk of laying snares secretly; they say, “Who will see them?”
- They devise iniquities: “We have perfected a shrewd scheme.” Both the inward thought and the heart of man are deep.
- But God shall shoot at them with an arrow; suddenly they shall be wounded.
- So He will make them stumble over their own tongue; all who see them shall flee away.
- All men shall fear, and shall declare the work of God; for they shall wisely consider His doing.
- The righteous shall be glad in the LORD and trust in Him. And all the upright in heart shall glory.
