To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David.<\/p>\n
Heavenly Father, you gave your Son victory over those who plotted evil against him; when he cried to you in his agony, you delivered him from the fear of his enemies. May those who suffer with him in this life find refuge in you, for the sake of Jesus Christ our Lord.<\/p>\n
1<\/sup>Hear my voice, O God, in my prayer: preserve my life from fear of the enemy.<\/p>\n 2<\/sup>Hide me from the secret counsel of the wicked; from the insurrection of the workers of iniquity:<\/p>\n 3<\/sup>Who whet their tongue like a sword, and bend their bows to shoot their arrows, even bitter words:<\/p>\n 4<\/sup>That they may shoot in secret at the perfect: suddenly do they shoot at him, and fear not.<\/p>\n 5<\/sup>They encourage themselves in an evil matter: they commune of laying snares privily; they say, Who shall see them?<\/p>\n 6<\/sup>They search out iniquities; they accomplish a diligent search: both the inward thought of every one of them, and the heart, is deep.<\/p>\n 7<\/sup>But God shall shoot at them with an arrow; suddenly shall they be wounded.<\/p>\n 8<\/sup>So they shall make their own tongue to fall upon themselves: all that see them shall flee away.<\/p>\n 9<\/sup>And all men shall fear, and shall declare the work of God; for they shall wisely consider of his doing.<\/p>\n 10<\/sup>The righteous shall be glad in the LORD, and shall trust in him; and all the upright in heart shall glory.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David.
