Dual Panel1For the choir director. A Psalm of David. Hear<8085> my voice<6963>, O God<430>, in my complaint<7879>; Preserve<5341> my life<2425> from dread<6343> of the enemy<340>.
2Hide<5641> me from the secret<5475> counsel<5475> of evildoers<7489>, From the tumult<7285> of those who do<6466> iniquity<205>,
3Who<834> have sharpened<8150> their tongue<3956> like a sword<2719>. They aimed<1869> bitter<4751> speech<1697> as their arrow<2671>,
4To shoot<3384> from concealment<4565> at the blameless<8535>; Suddenly<6597> they shoot<3384> at him, and do not fear<3372>.
5They hold<2388> fast<2388> to themselves an evil<7451> purpose<1697>; They talk<5608> of laying<2934> snares<4170> secretly<2934>; They say<559>, "Who<4310> can see<7200> them?"
6They devise<2664> injustices<5767>, saying, "We are ready<8552> with a well-conceived<2664> plot<2665>"; For the inward<7130> thought<7130> and the heart<3820> of a man<376> are deep<6013>.
7But God<430> will shoot<3384> at them with an arrow<2671>; Suddenly<6597> they will be wounded<4347>.
8So they will make him stumble<3782>; Their own tongue<3956> is against<5921> them; All<3605> who see<7200> them will shake<5074> the head.
9Then all<3605> men<120> will fear<3372>, And they will declare<5046> the work<6467> of God<430>, And will consider<7919> what<4639> He has done<4639>.
10The righteous<6662> man<6662> will be glad<8055> in the LORD<3068> and will take<2620> refuge<2620> in Him; And all<3605> the upright<3477> in heart<3820> will glory<1984>.
