1 Hear my voice, O God, in my complaint: Preserve my life from fear of the enemy.
1 Hear, OGod, my voice in my plaint; preserve my life from fear of the enemy:
2Hide me from the secret counsel of evil-doers, From the tumult of the workers of iniquity;
2 Hide me from the secret counsel of evil-doers, from the tumultuous crowd of the workers of iniquity,
3Who have whet their tongue like a sword, And have aimed their arrows, even bitter words,
3 Who have sharpened their tongue like a sword, [and] have aimed their arrow, a bitter word;
4That they may shoot in secret places at the perfect: Suddenly do they shoot at him, and fear not.
4 That they may shoot in secret at the perfect: suddenly do they shoot at him, and fear not.
5They encourage themselves in an evil purpose; They commune of laying snares privily; They say, Who will see them?
5 They encourage themselves in an evil matter, they concert to hide snares; they say, Who will see them?
6They search out iniquities; We have accomplished, say they, a diligent search: And the inward thought and the heart of every one is deep.
6 They devise iniquities: We have it ready, the plan is diligently sought out. And each one's inward [thought] and heart is deep.
7But God will shoot at them; With an arrow suddenly shall they be wounded.
7 ButGod will shoot an arrow at them: suddenly are they wounded;
8So they shall be made to stumble, their own tongue being against them: All that see them shall wag the head.
8 By their own tongue they are made to fall over one another: all that see them shall flee away.
