Berean Standard Bible
Hear my
voice
, O God, in
my complaint :
Preserve my life from fear
of the enemy.
For
the
choirmaster.
A
Psalm
of
David.
Hear, O God, my voice
of
complaint ;
preserve my life from dread
of the enemy.
Hide me from the secret
counsel
of evil-doers
, From the tumult
of the
workers of iniquity ;
Hide me from the scheming
of the
wicked
, from the mob
of workers of iniquity ,
Who have
whet
their tongue
like a
sword,
And have
aimed
their arrows,
even
bitter words,
who sharpen
their tongues
like swords
and aim
their bitter words like
arrows
,
That
they
may
shoot
in
secret
places
at
the perfect:
Suddenly do
they
shoot
at
him
, and
fear not
.
ambushing
the innocent
in
seclusion,
shooting
suddenly, without
fear.
They encourage
themselves
in
an
evil purpose; They commune
of laying
snares privily;
They
say,
Who will see them?
They hold
fast
to
their
evil purpose; they speak
of hiding
their
snares .
“
Who will see them? ”
they
say.
They search
out
iniquities;
We
have
accomplished,
`
say they'
, a diligent
search:
And
the inward
thought
and the heart of
every
one
is
deep
.
They devise
injustice
and
say, “We
have
perfected
a secret
plan.”
For
the inner
man
and the heart are
mysterious
.
But God will shoot at
them ;
With an
arrow
suddenly shall
they be wounded.
But God will shoot them with arrows;
suddenly they will
be wounded.
So
they shall
be made to stumble, their own tongue
being
against them :
All that
see them
shall
wag
the
head
.
They will
be made to stumble, their own tongues
turned
against them .
All who
see will
shake
their
heads
.
And
all men
shall
fear ;
And they
shall
declare
the work of God ,
And
shall
wisely
consider
of
his
doing
.
Then
all mankind
will
fear and proclaim
the work of God ;
so
they
will
ponder
what
He
has
done
.
The righteous shall
be
glad
in Jehovah,
and shall
take refuge in him; And
all the upright in heart shall
glory.
Psalm
65
For
the
Chief
Musician.
A
Psalm.
A
song
of
David
.
Let
the righteous rejoice
in the
LORD
and take refuge in Him; let
all the upright in heart exult
.
