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