1 Hear my voice, O God, in my prayer:preserve my life from fear of the enemy.
2 Hide me from the secret counsel of the wicked;from the insurrection of the workers of iniquity:
3 who whet their tongue like a sword, and bend their bows to shoot their arrows, even bitter words:
4 that they may shoot in secret at the perfect:suddenly do they shoot at him, and fear not.
