Psalms 64:2-8

1. 2 Hide me from the secret counsel of the wicked; from the insurrection of the workers of iniquity:

2. 3 Who whet their tongue like a sword, and bend their bows to shoot their arrows, even bitter words:

3. 4 That they may shoot in secret at the perfect: suddenly do they shoot at him, and fear not.

4. 5 They encourage themselves in an evil matter: they commune of laying snares privily; they say, Who shall see them?

5. 6 They search out iniquities; they accomplish a diligent search: both the inward thought of every one of them, and the heart, is deep.

6. 7 But God shall shoot at them with an arrow; suddenly shall they be wounded.

7. 8 So they shall make their own tongue to fall upon themselves: all that see them shall flee away.
