Psalm 64 :: Brenton's English Septuagint (BES)

Psa 64:1(LXX 63:1) For the end, a Psalm of David. (63:2) Hear my prayer, O God, when I make my petition to thee; deliver my soul from fear of the enemy.
Psa 64:2(LXX 63:3) Thou hast sheltered me from the conspiracy of them that do wickedly; from the multitude of them that work iniquity;
Psa 64:3(LXX 63:4) who have sharpened their tongues as a sword; they have bent their bow maliciously;
Psa 64:4(LXX 63:5) to shoot in secret at the blameless; they will shoot him suddenly, and will not fear.
Psa 64:5(LXX 63:6) They have set up for themselves an evil matter, they have given counsel to hide snares; they have said, Who shall see them?
Psa 64:6(LXX 63:7) They have searched out iniquity; they have wearied themselves with searching diligently, a man shall approach and the heart is deep,
Psa 64:7(LXX 63:8) and God shall be exalted, their wounds were caused by the weapon of the foolish children,
Psa 64:8(LXX 63:9) and their tongues have set him at nought, all that saw them were troubled;
Psa 64:9(LXX 63:10) and every man was alarmed, and they related the works of God, and understood his deeds.
Psa 64:10(LXX 63:11) The righteous shall rejoice in the Lord, and hope on him, and all the upright in heart shall be praised.
