Psalm 64 :: Young's Literal Translation (YLT)

Psa 64:1To the Overseer. -- A Psalm of David. Hear, O God, my voice, in my meditation, From the fear of an enemy Thou keepest my life,
Psa 64:2Hidest me from the secret counsel of evil doers, From the tumult of workers of iniquity.
Psa 64:3Who sharpened as a sword their tongue, They directed their arrow -- a bitter word.
Psa 64:4To shoot in secret places the perfect, Suddenly they shoot him, and fear not.
Psa 64:5They strengthen for themselves an evil thing, They recount of the hiding of snares, They have said, 'Who doth look at it?'
Psa 64:6They search out perverse things, 'We perfected a searching search,' And the inward part of man, and the heart are deep.
Psa 64:7And God doth shoot them with an arrow, Sudden have been their wounds,
Psa 64:8And they cause him to stumble, Against them is their own tongue, Every looker on them fleeth away.
Psa 64:9And all men fear, and declare the work of God, And His deed they have considered wisely.
Psa 64:10The righteous doth rejoice in Jehovah, And hath trusted in Him, And boast themselves do all the upright of heart!
