Oppressed by the Wicked but Rejoicing in the Lord
To the Chief Musician. A Psalm of David.
1 Hear my voice, O God, in my
1 meditation;
Preserve my life from fear of the enemy.
2 Hide me from the secret plots of the wicked,
From the rebellion of the workers of iniquity,
3 Who sharpen their tongue like a sword,
aAnd bend
their bows to shoot their arrows—bitter words,
4 That they may shoot in secret at the blameless;
Suddenly they shoot at him and do not fear.
