Il castigo dei malvagi

1 Al direttore del coro. Salmo di Davide. O Dio, ascolta la voce del mio lamento! Salva la mia vita dal terrore del nemico. 

2 Mettimi al riparo dalle trame dei malvagi, dagli intrighi dei malfattori. 

3 Hanno affilato la loro lingua come spada e hanno scagliato come frecce parole amare, 

4 per colpire di nascosto l’uomo integro; lo colpiscono all’improvviso, e non hanno paura. 

5 S’incoraggiano a vicenda in un’impresa malvagia; si accordano per camuffare tranelli, e dicono: «Chi se ne accorgerà?» 

6 Meditano pensieri malvagi e dicono: «Abbiamo attuato il nostro piano». I sentimenti e il cuore dell’uomo sono un abisso. 

7 Ma Dio scaglierà le sue frecce contro di loro, e all’improvviso saranno coperti di ferite; 

8 saranno abbattuti, e il male causato dalle proprie lingue ricadrà su di loro. Chiunque li vedrà scrollerà il capo. 

9 Allora tutti gli uomini temeranno, racconteranno l’opera di Dio e comprenderanno ciò che egli ha fatto. 

10 Il giusto esulterà nel Signore e cercherà rifugio in lui; tutti i retti di cuore si glorieranno.

Psalm 64

1 Dem Chorleiter. Ein Psalm. Von David. 

2 Höre, Gott, meine Stimme in meiner Klage; behüte mein Leben vor dem Schrecken des Feindes! 

3 Verbirg mich vor der Verschwörung der Übeltäter, vor dem Aufruhr derer, die Böses tun! 

4 Die ihre Zunge gleich einem Schwert geschärft, bitteres Wort als ihren Pfeil angelegt haben, (Sal 55,22; Sal 57,5) 

5 um im Versteck auf den Unschuldigen zu schießen, plötzlich schießen sie auf ihn und scheuen sich nicht. 

6 Sie stärken sich in böser Sache; sie reden davon, Fallstricke zu verbergen; sie sagen: »Wer wird sie sehen?« (Sal 10,11) 

7 Sie denken Schlechtigkeiten aus: »Wir sind fertig. Der Plan ist ausgedacht. Und das Innere eines jeden und ⟨sein⟩ Herz ist unergründlich.« (Ec 9,3; Ger 17,9) 

8 Aber Gott schießt auf sie einen Pfeil, plötzlich sind ihre Wunden da. (Sal 144,6) 

9 Und sie brachten ihn zum Straucheln, ⟨doch⟩ ihre Zunge ⟨kommt⟩ über sie; alle, die auf sie sehen, schütteln sich. (Sal 59,13; Sal 140,10) 

10 Da fürchteten sich alle Menschen und verkündeten das Tun Gottes und verstanden sein Werk. 

11 Der Gerechte wird sich am HERRN freuen und sich bei ihm bergen; und alle von Herzen Aufrichtigen werden sich rühmen. (Sal 5,12)

Salmo 64

English Standard Version

di Crossway

Hide Me from the Wicked

To the choirmaster. A Psalm of David.

1 Hear my voice, O God, in my complaint; preserve my life from dread of the enemy. (Sal 55,2) 

2 Hide me from the secret plots of the wicked, from the throng of evildoers, (Sal 55,14) 

3 who whet their tongues like swords, who aim bitter words like arrows, (Sal 11,2; Sal 57,4) 

4 shooting from ambush at the blameless, shooting at him suddenly and without fear. (Sal 10,8; Sal 55,19) 

5 They hold fast to their evil purpose; they talk of laying snares secretly, thinking, “Who can see them?” (Giob 22,13; Sal 140,5; Ger 23,14; Ez 13,22) 

6 They search out injustice, saying, “We have accomplished a diligent search.” For the inward mind and heart of a man are deep. (Sal 49,11) 

7 But God shoots his arrow at them; they are wounded suddenly. (Sal 7,12; Sal 7,13; Sal 58,7) 

8 They are brought to ruin, with their own tongues turned against them; all who see them will wag their heads. (Sal 22,7; Sal 40,3; Prov 12,13; Prov 18,7; Ger 18,16; Ger 48,27) 

9 Then all mankind fears; they tell what God has brought about and ponder what he has done. (Sal 8,1; Ger 50,28; Ger 51,10) 

10 Let the righteous one rejoice in the LORD and take refuge in him! Let all the upright in heart exult! (Giob 22,19; Sal 7,10; Sal 11,1; Sal 32,11)

Salmo 64

King James Version

1 To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David. Hear my voice, O God, in my prayer: preserve my life from fear of the enemy. 

2 Hide me from the secret counsel of the wicked; from the insurrection of the workers of iniquity: 

3 Who whet their tongue like a sword, and bend their bows to shoot their arrows, even bitter words: 

4 That they may shoot in secret at the perfect: suddenly do they shoot at him, and fear not. 

5 They encourage themselves in an evil matter: they commune of laying snares privily; they say, Who shall see them? 

6 They search out iniquities; they accomplish a diligent search: both the inward thought of every one of them , and the heart, is deep. 

7 But God shall shoot at them with an arrow; suddenly shall they be wounded. 

8 So they shall make their own tongue to fall upon themselves: all that see them shall flee away. 

9 And all men shall fear, and shall declare the work of God; for they shall wisely consider of his doing. 

10 The righteous shall be glad in the LORD, and shall trust in him; and all the upright in heart shall glory.
