Chapter 64

Psalms 64

To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David.

Hebrew numbers 11 verses here, the KJV 10 — shown at matching numbers, not remapped

1

Heare my voice, O God, in my praier; preserue my life from feare of the enemie.

2

Hide me from the secret counsel of the wicked: from the insurrection of the workers of iniquitie:

3

Who whet their tongue like a sword, and bend their bowes to shoote their arrowes, euen bitter words:

4

That they may shoote in secret at the perfect: suddenly doe they shoote at him, and feare not.

5

They incourage themselues in an euill matter: they commune of laying snares priuily; they say, Who shall see them?

6

They search out iniquities, they accomplish a diligent search: both the inward thought of euery one of them, and the heart, is deepe.

7

But God shall shoote at them: with an arrowe, sodenly shall they be wounded.

8

So they shall make their owne tongue to fall vpon themselues: all that see them, shall flee away.

9

And all men shall feare, and shall declare the worke of God; for they shall wisely consider of his doing.

10

The righteous shalbe glad in the LORD, and shall trust in him; and all the vpright in heart shall glory.

End of ps chapter 64.
