Psalms 64:5-10
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 64
5They make firm for themselves an evil purpose; They talk of setting snares secretly; They say, 'Who can see them?' 6They devise injustices, saying, 'We are ready with a well-conceived plot'; For the inward thought and the heart of a person are deep. 7But God will shoot an arrow at them; Suddenly they will be wounded. 8So they will make him stumble; Their own tongue is against them; All who see them will shake their heads. 9Then all people will fear, And they will declare the work of God, And will consider what He has done. 10The righteous person will be glad in the Lord and take refuge in Him; And all the upright in heart will boast.King James Version
Christian Standard Bible
New Living Translation
Chapter 64
5They encourage each other to do evil and plan how to set their traps in secret. 'Who will ever notice?' they ask. 6As they plot their crimes, they say, 'We have devised the perfect plan!' Yes, the human heart and mind are cunning.
7But God himself will shoot them with his arrows, suddenly striking them down.
8Their own tongues will ruin them, and all who see them will shake their heads in scorn.
9Then everyone will be afraid; they will proclaim the mighty acts of God and realize all the amazing things he does.
10The godly will rejoice in the Lord and find shelter in him. And those who do what is right will praise him.

Chapter 64
5They hold fast to their evil purpose; they talk of laying snares secretly, thinking, "Who can see them?" 6They search out injustice, saying, "We have accomplished a diligent search." For the inward mind and heart of a man are deep. 7 But God shoots his arrow at them; they are wounded suddenly. 8They are brought to ruin, with their own tongues turned against them; all who see them will wag their heads. 9Then all mankind fears; they tell what God has brought about and ponder what he has done. 10Let the righteous one rejoice in the Lord and take refuge in him! Let all the upright in heart exult!New International Version
6They plot injustice and say, "We have devised a perfect plan!" Surely the human mind and heart are cunning.
7But God will shoot them with his arrows; they will suddenly be struck down.
8He will turn their own tongues against them and bring them to ruin; all who see them will shake their heads in scorn.
