| Chapter 64 |
1 |
Hear my voice, God, in my complaint. Preserve my life from fear of the enemy. |
2 |
Hide me from the conspiracy of the wicked, From the noisy crowd of the ones doing evil; |
3 |
Who sharpen their tongue like a sword, And aim their arrows, deadly words, |
4 |
To shoot innocent men from ambushes. They shoot at him suddenly and fearlessly. |
5 |
They encourage themselves in evil plans. They talk about laying snares secretly. They say, "Who will see them?" |
6 |
They plot injustice, saying, "We have made a perfect plan!" Surely man`s mind and heart are cunning. |
7 |
But God will shoot at them. They will be suddenly struck down with an arrow. |
8 |
Their own tongues shall ruin them. All who see them will shake their heads. |
9 |
All mankind shall be afraid. They shall declare the work of God, And shall wisely ponder what he has done. |
10 |
The righteous shall be glad in Yahweh, And shall take refuge in him. All the upright in heart shall praise him! Psalm 65 For the Chief Musician. A Psalm by David. A song. |
