Psalm 64:5 in context

  1. 3Who have whet their tongue like a sword, And have aimed their arrows, even bitter words,
  2. 4That they may shoot in secret places at the perfect: Suddenly do they shoot at him, and fear not.
  3. 5They encourage themselves in an evil purpose; They commune of laying snares privily; They say, Who will see them?
  4. 6They search out iniquities; We have accomplished, say they, a diligent search: And the inward thought and the heart of every one is deep.
  5. 7But God will shoot at them; With an arrow suddenly shall they be wounded.
