Hide me from the ^(c)secret counsel of evildoers, From the tumult of ^(d)those who do iniquity,

Who ^(e)have sharpened their tongue like a sword. They ^(f)aimed bitter speech as their arrow,

To ^(g)shoot ^[b]from concealment at the blameless; Suddenly they shoot at him, and ^(h)do not fear.

They ^[c]hold fast to themselves an evil purpose; They ^[d]talk of ⁽ⁱ⁾laying snares secretly; They say, "^(j)Who can see them?"

They ^[e]devise injustices, saying, "We are ^[f]ready with a well-conceived plot"; For the ^[g](k)inward thought and the heart of a man are ^[h]deep.
