1 - To the chief Musician, a Psalm of David. Hear my voice, O God, in my prayer: preserve my life from fear of the enemy.

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

3 - Who whet their tongue like a sword, [and] bend [their bows to shoot] their arrows, [even] bitter words:

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

5 - They encourage themselves [in] an evil matter: they commune of laying snares privily; they say, Who will see them?

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

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

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

9 - And all men shall fear, and shall declare the work of God; for they shall wisely consider of his doing.

10 - The righteous shall be glad in the LORD, and shall trust in him; and all the upright in heart shall glory.
