1Hear 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:
1To the end, a psalm of David. The canticle of Jeremias and Ezechiel to the people of the captivity, when they began to go out.
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,
2A hymn, O God, becometh thee in Sion: and a vow shall be paid to thee in Jerusalem.
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;
3O hear my prayer: all flesh shall come to thee.
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.
4The words of the wicked have prevailed over us: and thou wilt pardon our transgressions.
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?
5Blessed is he whom thou hast chosen and taken to thee: he shall dwell in thy courts. We shall be filled with the good things of thy house; holy is thy temple,
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.
6Wonderful in justice. Hear us, O God our saviour, who art the hope of all the ends of the earth, and in the sea afar off.
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;
7Thou who preparest the mountains by thy strength, being girded with power:
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.
8Who troublest the depth of the sea, the noise of its waves. The Gentiles shall be troubled,
9And all men shall fear; And they shall declare the work of God, And shall wisely consider of his doing.
9 And all men shall fear, and shall declareGod's doing; and they shall wisely consider his work.
9And they that dwell in the uttermost borders shall be afraid at thy signs: thou shalt make the outgoings of the morning and of the evening to be joyful.
10The righteous shall be glad in Jehovah, and shall take refuge in him; And all the upright in heart shall glory.
10 The righteous shall rejoice in Jehovah, and trust in him; and all the upright in heart shall glory.
10Thou hast visited the earth, and hast plentifully watered it; thou hast many ways enriched it. The river of God is filled with water, thou hast prepared their food: for so is its preparation.
