The Book of Psalms
Chapter 63
1 – Unto the end, a psalm for David.
2 – Hear, O God, my prayer, when I make supplication to thee : deliver my soul from the fear of the enemy.
3 – Thou hast protected me from the assembly of the malignant; from the multitude of the workers of iniquity.
4 – For they have whetted their tongues like a sword; they have bent their bow a bitter thing,
5 – to shoot in secret the undefiled.
6 – They will shoot at him on a sudden, and will not fear: they are resolute in wickedness. They have talked of hiding snares; they have said: Who shall see them?
7 – They have searched after iniquities: they have failed in their search. Man shall come to a deep heart:
8 – and God shall be exalted. The arrows of children are their wounds:
9 – and their tongues against them are made weak. All that saw them were troubled;
10 – and every man was afraid. And they declared the works of God: and understood his doings.
11 – The just shall rejoice in the Lord, and shall hope in him: and all the upright in heart shall be praised.
