Psalm 64:1-6

Psalm 64In Hebrew texts 64:1-10 is numbered 64:2-11. 1For the director of music. A psalm of David. Hear me, my God, as I voice my complaint; protect my life from the threat of the enemy.

2Hide me from the conspiracy of the wicked, from the plots of evildoers.

3They sharpen their tongues like swords and aim cruel words like deadly arrows.

4They shoot from ambush at the innocent; they shoot suddenly, without fear.

5They encourage each other in evil plans, they talk about hiding their snares; they say, “Who will see it Or us ?”

6They plot injustice and say, “We have devised a perfect plan!” Surely the human mind and heart are cunning.
