|
1. To the chief Musician H5329 , A Psalm H4210 of David H1732 . Hear H8085 my voice H6963 , O God H430 , in my prayer H7879 : preserve H5341 my life H2416 from fear H4480 H6343 of the enemy H341 .
|
|
2. Hidest me from the secret counsel of evil doers, From the tumult of workers of iniquity.
|
2. Hide H5641 me from the secret counsel H4480 H5475 of the wicked H7489 ; from the insurrection H4480 H7285 of the workers H6466 of iniquity H205 :
|
|
3. Who sharpened as a sword their tongue, They directed their arrow -- a bitter word.
|
3. Who H834 whet H8150 their tongue H3956 like a sword H2719 , and bend H1869 their bows to shoot their arrows H2671 , even bitter H4751 words H1697 :
|
|
4. To shoot in secret places the perfect, Suddenly they shoot him, and fear not.
|
4. That they may shoot H3384 in secret H4565 at the perfect H8535 : suddenly H6597 do they shoot H3384 at him , and fear H3372 not H3808 .
|
|
5. They strengthen for themselves an evil thing, They recount of the hiding of snares, They have said, `Who doth look at it?`
|
5. They encourage H2388 themselves in an evil H7451 matter H1697 : they commune H5608 of laying snares privily H2934 H4170 ; they say H559 , Who H4310 shall see H7200 them?
|
|
6. They search out perverse things, `We perfected a searching search,` And the inward part of man, and the heart are deep.
|
6. They search out H2664 iniquities H5766 ; they accomplish H8552 a diligent search H2665 H2664 : both the inward H7130 thought of every one H376 of them , and the heart H3820 , is deep H6013 .
|
|
7. And God doth shoot them with an arrow, Sudden have been their wounds,
|
7. But God H430 shall shoot H3384 at them with an arrow H2671 ; suddenly H6597 shall they be H1961 wounded H4347 .
|
|
8. And they cause him to stumble, Against them is their own tongue, Every looker on them fleeth away.
|
8. So they shall make their own tongue H3956 to fall H3782 upon H5921 themselves: all H3605 that see H7200 them shall flee away H5074 .
|
|
9. And all men fear, and declare the work of God, And His deed they have considered wisely.
|
9. And all H3605 men H120 shall fear H3372 , and shall declare H5046 the work H6467 of God H430 ; for they shall wisely consider H7919 of his doing H4639 .
|
|
10. The righteous doth rejoice in Jehovah, And hath trusted in Him, And boast themselves do all the upright of heart!
|
10. The righteous H6662 shall be glad H8055 in the LORD H3068 , and shall trust H2620 in him ; and all H3605 the upright H3477 in heart H3820 shall glory H1984 .
