1HearH8085 my voiceH6963, O GodH430, in 1my 2complaintH7879; 3PreserveH5341 my lifeH2425 from dreadH6343 of the enemyH340.2HideH5641 me from the 4secretH5475 counselH5475 of evildoersH7489, From the tumultH7285 of 5those who doH6466 iniquityH205,3WhoH834 6have sharpenedH8150 their tongueH3956 like a swordH2719. They 7aimedH1869 bitterH4751 speechH1697 as their arrowH2671,4To 8shootH3384 9from concealmentH4565 at the blamelessH8535; SuddenlyH6597 they shootH3384 at him, and 10do not fearH3372.5They 11holdH2388 fastH2388 to themselves an evilH7451 purposeH1697; They 12talkH5608 of 13layingH2934 snaresH4170 secretlyH2934; They sayH559, “14WhoH4310 can seeH7200 them?”6They 15deviseH2664 injusticesH5767, saying, “We are 16readyH8552 with a well-conceivedH2664 plotH2665”; For the 1718inwardH7130 thoughtH7130 and the heartH3820 of a manH376 are 19deepH6013.
7But 20GodH430 21will shootH3384 at them with an arrowH2671; SuddenlyH6597 22they will be woundedH4347.8So 23they 24will 25make him stumbleH3782; 26Their own tongueH3956 is againstH5921 them; AllH3605 who seeH7200 them will 27shakeH5074 the head.9Then allH3605 menH120 28will 29fearH3372, And they 30will 31declareH5046 the workH6467 of GodH430, And 32will considerH7919 33whatH4639 He has doneH4639.10The righteousH6662 manH6662 will be 34gladH8055 in the LordH3068 and will 35takeH2620 refugeH2620 in Him; And allH3605 the uprightH3477 in heartH3820 will gloryH1984.
