² When evil men think of ways to hurt me,
    hide me in a safe place.
Those people work together as a group
    to do wicked things.
³ Their tongues are like
    sharp swords that hurt people.
Their cruel words are like
    arrows that they shoot at people.
⁴ They hide in secret places,
    and they quickly shoot lies at good people.
They are not afraid that anyone will punish them.
