Ang Parusa sa Masasamang Tao

64 O Dios, pakinggan nʼyo ang daing ko!
    Ingatan nʼyo ang buhay ko mula sa banta ng aking mga kaaway.
Ingatan nʼyo ako sa kasamaang pinaplano nila.
Naghahanda sila ng matatalim na salita,
    na gaya ng espada at palasong nakakasugat.
Nagsasalita sila ng masakit sa likod ng mga taong matuwid
    na parang namamana nang patago.
    Bigla nila itong ginagawa nang walang katakot-takot.
Hinihikayat nila ang isaʼt isa na gumawa ng kasamaan
    at pinag-uusapan nila kung saan maglalagay ng bitag.
    Sinasabi nila, “Walang makakakita nito.”
Nagpaplano sila ng masama at sinasabi, “Napakaganda ng plano natin!”
    Talagang napakatuso ng isip at puso ng tao!
Ngunit papanain sila ng Dios at bigla na lang silang masusugatan.
Mapapahamak sila dahil sa masasama nilang sinabi,
    kukutyain sila ng mga makakakita sa kanila.
At lahat ng tao ay matatakot.
    Pag-iisipan nila ang mga ginawa ng Dios at ipahahayag ito sa iba.
10 Magagalak at manganganlong sa Panginoon ang lahat ng matuwid.
At magpupuri sa kanya ang mga gumagawa ng tama.

Oppressed by the Wicked but Rejoicing in the Lord

To the Chief Musician. A Psalm of David.

64 Hear my voice, O God, in my [a]meditation;
Preserve my life from fear of the enemy.
Hide me from the secret plots of the wicked,
From the rebellion of the workers of iniquity,
Who sharpen their tongue like a sword,
(A)And bend their bows to shoot their arrows—bitter words,
That they may shoot in secret at the blameless;
Suddenly they shoot at him and do not fear.

They encourage themselves in an evil matter;
They talk of laying snares secretly;
(B)They say, “Who will see them?”
They devise iniquities:
“We have perfected a shrewd scheme.”
Both the inward thought and the heart of man are deep.

But God shall shoot at them with an arrow;
Suddenly they shall be wounded.
So He will make them stumble over their own tongue;
(C)All who see them shall flee away.
All men shall fear,
And shall (D)declare the work of God;
For they shall wisely consider His doing.

10 (E)The righteous shall be glad in the Lord, and trust in Him.
And all the upright in heart shall glory.
