A Prayer to Protect Us from the Enemy - Part 2
[1] Hear me, my God, as I voice my complaint;
protect my life from the threat of the enemy.
[2] Hide me from the conspiracy of the wicked,
from the plots of evildoers.
[3] They sharpen their tongues like swords
and aim cruel words like deadly arrows.
[4] They shoot from ambush at the innocent;
they shoot suddenly, without fear.
[5] They encourage each other in evil plans,
they talk about hiding their snares;
they say, “Who will see it?”
[6] They plot injustice and say,
“We have devised a perfect plan!”
Surely the human mind and heart are cunning.
[7] But God will shoot them with his arrows;
they will suddenly be struck down.
[8] He will turn their own tongues against them
and bring them to ruin;
all who see them will shake their heads in scorn.
[9] All people will fear;
they will proclaim the works of God
and ponder what he has done.
