Read Psalms chapter 64 (Contemporary English Version) on maBible, the Bible online. In this chapter: (A psalm by David for the music leader.), Celebrate because of the Lord.
1 Listen to my concerns, God, and protect me from my enemies' threats.
2 Keep me safe from secret plots of corrupt and evil gangs.
3 Their words cut like swords, and their cruel remarks sting like sharp arrows.
4 They fearlessly ambush and shoot innocent people.
5 They are determined to do evil, and they tell themselves, “Let's set traps! No one can see us.”
6 They make evil plans and say, “We'll commit a perfect crime. No one knows our thoughts.”
7 But God will shoot his arrows and quickly wound them.
8 They will be destroyed by their own words, and everyone who sees them will tremble with fear.
9 They will be afraid and say, “Look at what God has done and keep it all in mind.”
10 May the Lord bless his people with peace and happiness and let them celebrate.
