Psalm 64:6-8
EasyEnglish Bible
6 They think of wicked ideas to hurt people.
They say, ‘That is a great idea!’[a]
Nobody really understands what people think
deep inside themselves.
7 But God will punish them!
He will suddenly shoot an arrow at them
and it will hurt them a lot.[b]
8 Their own evil words will turn against them
and make them fall.
Everyone who sees them will shake their heads.
Footnotes
- 64:6 David gives us a picture of the bad men. They hide so nobody can see them. They are like people who shoot arrows at other people to hurt them. They think that nobody will ever find out what they have done.
- 64:7 Arrows are a picture of how God will punish them. The things that bad people do to hurt other people are like arrows. So God's punishment will also be like arrows.
