Chapter:

The Book of Psalms

American Standard Version

Ps 64:1	Hear my voice, O God, in my complaint: Preserve my life from fear of the enemy.
Ps 64:2	Hide me from the secret counsel of evil-doers, From the tumult of the workers of iniquity;
Ps 64:3	Who have whet their tongue like a sword, And have aimed their arrows, even bitter words,
Ps 64:4	That they may shoot in secret places at the perfect: Suddenly do they shoot at him, and fear not.
Ps 64:5	They encourage themselves in an evil purpose; They commune of laying snares privily; They say, Who will see them?
Ps 64:6	They search out iniquities; We have accomplished, say they, a diligent search: And the inward thought and the heart of every one is deep.
Ps 64:7	But God will shoot at them; With an arrow suddenly shall they be wounded.
Ps 64:8	So they shall be made to stumble, their own tongue being against them: All that see them shall wag the head.
Ps 64:9	And all men shall fear; And they shall declare the work of God, And shall wisely consider of his doing.
Ps 64:10	The righteous shall be glad in Jehovah, and shall take refuge in him; And all the upright in heart shall glory. For the Chief Musician. A Psalm. A song of David.
