Psalms 64

¹I am in trouble, God---listen to my prayer! I am afraid of my enemies---save my life!

²Protect me from the plots of the wicked, from mobs of evil people.

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

⁴They are quick to spread their shameless lies; they destroy good people with cowardly slander.

⁵They encourage each other in their evil plots; they talk about where they will place their traps. "No one can see them,"they say.

⁶They make evil plans and say, "We have planned a perfect crime." The human heart and mind are a mystery.

⁷But God shoots his arrows at them, and suddenly they are wounded.

⁸He will destroy them because of those words; all who see them will shake their heads.

⁹They will all be afraid; they will think about what God has done and tell about his deeds.

¹⁰All righteous people will rejoice because of what the LORD has done. They will find safety in him; all good people will praise him.
