For the Chief Musician. A Psalm by David.

[1] Hear my voice, God, in my complaint.
Preserve my life from fear of the enemy.
[2] Hide me from the conspiracy of the wicked,
from the noisy crowd of the ones doing evil;
[3] who sharpen their tongue like a sword,
and aim their arrows, deadly words,
[4] to shoot innocent men from ambushes.
They shoot at him suddenly and fearlessly.
[5] They encourage themselves in evil plans.
They talk about laying snares secretly.
They say, “Who will see them?”
[6] They plot injustice, saying, “We have made a perfect plan!”
Surely man’s mind and heart are cunning.
[7] But God will shoot at them.
They will be suddenly struck down with an arrow.
[8] Their own tongues shall ruin them.
All who see them will shake their heads.
[9] All mankind shall be afraid.
They shall declare the work of God,
and shall wisely ponder what he has done.
[10] The righteous shall be glad in Yahweh,
and shall take refuge in him.
All the upright in heart shall praise him!
King James Version

To the chief Musician, H5329 (PielPtc) A Psalm H4210 of David. H1732

[1] Hear H8085 (QalImpv) my voice, H6963 O God, H430 in my prayer: H7879
Preserve H5341 (QalImpf) my life H2416 from fear H6343 of the enemy. H341 (QalActPtc)
[2] Hide H5641 (HiphImpf) me from the secret counsel H5475 of the wicked; H7489 (HiphPtc)
From the insurrection H7285 of the workers H6466 (QalActPtc) of iniquity: H205
[3] Who whet H8150 (QalPerf) their tongue H3956 like a sword, H2719
And bend H1869 (QalPerf) their bows to shoot their arrows, H2671 even bitter H4751 words: H1697
[4] That they may shoot H3384 (QalInf) in secret H4565 at the perfect: H8535
Suddenly H6597 do they shoot H3384 (HiphImpf) at him, and fear H3372 (QalImpf) not.
[5] They encourage H2388 (PielImpf) themselves in an evil H7451 matter: H1697§
They commune H5608 (PielImpf) of laying H2934 snares H4170§ privily; H2934 (QalInf) They say, H559 (QalPerf) Who shall see H7200 (QalImpf) them?
[6] They search out H2664 (QalImpf) iniquities; H5766 they accomplish H8552 (QalPerf) a diligent H2664 (PualPtc) search: H2665§
Both the inward H7130 thought of every one H376 of them, and the heart, H3820 is deep. H6013
[7] But God H430 shall shoot H3384 (HiphImpf) at them
With an arrow; H2671 suddenly H6597 shall they be wounded. H4347§
[8] So they shall make their own tongue H3956 to fall H3782 (HiphImpf) upon themselves:
All that see H7200 (QalActPtc) them shall flee away. H5074 (HiplImpf)
[9] And all men H120 shall fear, H3372 (QalImpf) and shall declare H5046 (HiphImpf) the work H6467 of God; H430
For they shall wisely consider H7919 (HiphPerf) of his doing. H4639
[10] The righteous H6662 shall be glad H8055 (QalImpf) in the Lord, H3068 and shall trust H2620 (QalPerf) in him;
And all the upright H3477 in heart H3820 shall glory. H1984 (HithImpf)
