PSALM 64
A Psalm of David
Hear my voice, O God, in my complaint;
guard and preserve my life from the terror of the enemy.
Hide me from the secret counsel and conspiracy of the ungodly,
from the scheming of evildoers.
Who whet their tongues like a sword,
who aim venomous words like arrows,
Who shoot from ambush at the blameless man;
suddenly do they shoot at him, without self-reproach or fear.
They encourage themselves in an evil purpose,
they talk of laying snares secretly;
they say, Who will discover us?
They think out acts of injustice and say,
We have accomplished a well-devised thing!
For the inward thought of each one is unsearchable
and his heart is deep.
But God will shoot with an unexpected arrow at them;
and suddenly shall they be wounded.
And they will be made to stumble, their own tongues
turning against them; all who gaze upon them will
shake their heads and flee away.
And all men shall reverently fear and be in awe;
and they will declare the work of God, for they will wisely
consider and acknowledge that it is His doing.
The uncompromisingly righteous shall be glad in the Lord
and shall trust and take refuge in Him; and all the
upright in heart shall glory and offer praise.
"There is no fear in love, dread does not exist,
but full-grown, complete, perfect love turns fear out
of doors and expels every trace of terror!"
1 John 4:18
