Psalms 64:2-6

2Hide me from the plots of evil men, from the crowd of evildoers.

3They sharpen their tongues like a sword; they aim their arrow, a slanderous charge,

4in order to shoot down the innocent in secluded places. They shoot at him suddenly and are unafraid of retaliation.

5They encourage one another to carry out their evil deed. They plan how to hide snares, and boast, “Who will see them?”

6They devise unjust schemes; they disguise a well-conceived plot. Man’s inner thoughts cannot be discovered.
