1. Listen to my concerns, God,and protect mefrom my terrible enemies.
2. Keep me safe from secret plotsof corrupt and evil gangs.
3. Their words cut like swords,and their cruel remarkssting like sharp arrows.
4. They fearlessly ambushand shoot innocent people.
5. They are determined to do evil,and they tell themselves,“Let's set traps!No one can see us.”
6. They make evil plans and say,“We'll commit a perfect crime.No one knows our thoughts.”
7. But God will shoot his arrowsand quickly wound them.
8. They will be destroyedby their own words,and everyone who sees themwill tremble with fear.
9. They will be afraid and say,“Look at what God has doneand keep it all in mind.”
10. May the Lord bless his peoplewith peace and happinessand let them celebrate.
