Psalm 64:6

Protection From Evildoers

⁵ They encourage each other in an evil plan;
they talk about hiding traps and say,
“Who will see them?”
⁶ They devise crimes and say,
“We have perfected a secret plan.”
The inner man and the heart are mysterious. ⁷ But God will shoot them with arrows;
suddenly, they will be wounded.
