Psalm 64
Contemporary English Version
(A psalm by David for the music leader.)
Celebrate because of the Lord
1 Listen to my concerns, God,
and protect me
from my enemies' threats.
2 Keep me safe from secret plots
of corrupt and evil gangs.
3 Their words cut like swords,
and their cruel remarks
sting like sharp arrows.
4 They fearlessly ambush
and shoot innocent people.
5 They are determined to do evil,
and they tell themselves,
“Let's set traps!
No one can see us.”[a]
6 They make evil plans and say,
“We'll commit a perfect crime.
No one knows our thoughts.”[b]
7 But God will shoot his arrows
and quickly wound them.
8 They will be destroyed
by their own words,
and everyone who sees them
will tremble with fear.[c]
9 They will be afraid and say,
“Look at what God has done
and keep it all in mind.”
10 May the Lord bless his people
with peace and happiness
and let them celebrate.

Psalm 64[a]
For the director of music. A psalm of David.
2 Hide me from the conspiracy(C) of the wicked,(D)
from the plots of evildoers.
3 They sharpen their tongues like swords(E)
and aim cruel words like deadly arrows.(F)
4 They shoot from ambush at the innocent;(G)
they shoot suddenly, without fear.(H)
5 They encourage each other in evil plans,
they talk about hiding their snares;(I)
they say, “Who will see it[b]?”(J)
6 They plot injustice and say,
“We have devised a perfect plan!”
Surely the human mind and heart are cunning.

Dios prende al impío en su maldad
64 Al músico principal. Salmo de David.
Escucha, oh Dios, mi voz en mi oración;
guarda mi vida del miedo al enemigo.
2 Escóndeme del consejo secreto
de los malhechores,
del tumulto de los que obran iniquidad.
3 Ellos afilan su lengua como espadas,
y disponen palabras amargas como flechas
4 para tirarlas a escondidas contra el inocente.
De repente tiran contra él,
y no temen.
5 Se alientan unos a otros en perverso designio
y planean[a] esconder trampas. Dicen: “¿Quién nos[b] ha de ver?”.
6 Traman maldad,
hacen un minucioso complot
hasta en el íntimo pensamiento del hombre
y lo profundo del corazón.
7 Pero Dios los herirá con sus
propias flechas.
De repente les sobrevendrán
sus heridas.
8 Los hará caer por la propia lengua
de ellos;
todos los que los vean moverán
la cabeza.
9 Todos los hombres temerán;
anunciarán la obra de Dios
y entenderán sus hechos.
10 El justo se alegrará en el SEÑOR
y confiará en él.
Se gloriarán todos los rectos
de corazón.
