JPS_ASV_Byz(i)
1 (64:1) For the Leader. A Psalm of David. (64:2) Hear my voice, O God, in my complaint; preserve my life from the terror of the enemy.
2 (64:3) Hide me from the council of evil-doers; from the tumult of the workers of iniquity;
3 (64:4) Who have whet their tongue like a sword, and have aimed their arrow, a poisoned word;
4 (64:5) That they may shoot in secret places at the blameless; suddenly do they shoot at him, and fear not.
5 (64:6) They encourage one another in an evil matter; they converse of laying snares secretly; they ask, who would see them.
6 (64:7) They search out iniquities, they have accomplished a diligent search; even in the inward thought of every one, and the deep heart.
7 (64:8) But God doth shoot at them with an arrow suddenly; thence are their wounds.
8 (64:9) So they make their own tongue a stumbling unto themselves; all that see them shake the head.
9 (64:10) And all men fear; and they declare the work of God, and understand His doing.
10 (64:11) The righteous shall be glad in the LORD, and shall take refuge in Him; and all the upright in heart shall glory.
