1 For the Chief Musician. A Psalm by David.
2 Hide me from the conspiracy of the wicked,
3 who sharpen their tongue like a sword,
4 to shoot innocent men from ambushes.
5 They encourage themselves in evil plans.
6 They plot injustice, saying, "We have made a perfect plan!"
7 But God will shoot at them.
8 Their own tongues shall ruin them.
9 All mankind shall be afraid.
10 The righteous shall be glad in the LORD,
