'Psalm 64 ' not found for the version: New Matthew Bible.

لِقَائِدِ المُرَنِّمِينَ. مَزْمُورٌ لِدَاوُدَ.

64 اسْمَعنِي يَا اللهُ عِنْدَمَا أتَكَلَّمُ!
احمِنِي مِنْ تَهْدِيدَاتِ عَدُوِّي.
خَبِّئنِي مِنْ مُؤَامَرَاتِ الأشْرَارِ.
وَمِنْ مَكَائِدِهِمِ احفَظنِي.
ألسِنَتُهُمْ مَاضِيَةٌ كَالسُّيُوفِ.
وَكَلِمَاتُهُمُ الحَاقِدَةُ كَالقَوسِ المُعَدَّةِ لِلإطلَاقِ.
وَفَجْأةً وَدُونَ خِشيَةٍ،
يُطلِقُونَ السَّهمَ مِنْ مَخبَإهِمْ.
وَيُصِيبُونَ الإنْسَانَ المُسْتَقِيمَ.
بِكَلِمَاتٍ شِرِّيرَةٍ يُشَجِّعُونَ أحَدُهُمُ الآخَرَ.
يَتَحَدَّثُونَ عَنْ نَصبِ المَصَائِدِ.
وَيَقُولُونَ:
«لَنْ يَرَاهَا أحَدٌ!»
أخْفَوْا مَصَائِدَهُمُ المُحكَمَةَ.
وَهُمْ يَبْحَثُونَ عَنْ ضَحَايَا.
دَوَاخِلُ الإنْسَانِ عَمِيقَةٌ،
وَكَذَلِكَ قَلْبُهُ.
غَيْرَ أنَّ اللهَ أيْضًا يَرْمِي سِهَامَهُ!
فَيَضْرِبُ الأعْدَاءَ فَجْأةً.
يَقْدِرُ أنْ يُوقِعَهُمْ فِي مَصَائِدِهِمْ وَخُطَطِهِمْ.
كُلُّ مَنْ يَرَاهُمْ يَهُزُّ رَأسَهُ مُتَعَجِّبًا.
ثُمَّ يَرَى الجَمِيعُ مَا حَدَثَ،
وَيُخبِرُونَ بِمَا صَنَعَ اللهُ.
وَيُعَلِّمُونَ الآخَرِينَ عَنْ أعْمَالِهِ العَظِيمَةِ.
10 لِيَبْتَهِجِ البَارُّ بِاللهِ،
وَلْيَحْتَمِ بِهِ.
لِيَتَهَلَّلْ ذُو القَلْبِ المُسْتَقِيمِ.

64 Hear my voice, O God, in my prayer: preserve my life from fear of the enemy.

Hide me from the secret counsel of the wicked; from the insurrection of the workers of iniquity:

Who whet their tongue like a sword, and bend their bows to shoot their arrows, even bitter words:

That they may shoot in secret at the perfect: suddenly do they shoot at him, and fear not.

They encourage themselves in an evil matter: they commune of laying snares privily; they say, Who shall see them?

They search out iniquities; they accomplish a diligent search: both the inward thought of every one of them, and the heart, is deep.

But God shall shoot at them with an arrow; suddenly shall they be wounded.

So they shall make their own tongue to fall upon themselves: all that see them shall flee away.

And all men shall fear, and shall declare the work of God; for they shall wisely consider of his doing.

10 The righteous shall be glad in the Lord, and shall trust in him; and all the upright in heart shall glory.

To the director: A song of David.

64 God, listen to my complaint.
    Save me from the terrible threats of my enemies!
Protect me from the secret plans of the wicked.
    Hide me from that gang of evil people.
They sharpen their tongues to use like swords.
    They aim their poisonous words like arrows.
Suddenly, from their hiding places, they let their arrows fly.
    They shoot to kill innocent people.
They encourage each other to do wrong.
    They talk about setting traps and say, “No one will see them here!
No one will discover our crime.
    We have the perfect plan!”
Yes, people can be very tricky and hard to understand.
But suddenly, God will shoot his arrows,
    and those wicked people will be hit.
He will use their own words against them,
    and they will be destroyed.
Then everyone who sees them
    will shake their heads in amazement.
People will see what God has done.
    They will tell other people about him.
Then everyone will learn more about God.
    They will learn to fear and respect him.
10 Good people are happy to serve the Lord.
    They depend on him to protect them.
    All those who want to do right will praise him!
