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

64:2 ἐσκέπασάς με ἀπὸ συστροφῆς πονηρευομένων, ἀπὸ πλήθους ἐργαζομένων τὴν ἀνομίαν, 64:2 ἐσκέπασάς με ἀπὸ συστροφῆς πονηρευομένων, ἀπὸ πλήθους ἐργαζομένων ἀδικίαν,
64:2 You have sheltered me from the conspiracy of those who do wickedly; from the multitude of those who work iniquity; 64:2 You have sheltered me from the conspiracy of those who do wickedly; from the multitude of those who work iniquity;

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

64:3 οἵτινες ἠκόνησαν ὡς ῥομφαίαν τὰς γλώσσας αὐτῶν, ἐνέτειναν τόξον αὐτῶν πρᾶγμα πικρὸν 64:3 οἵτινες ἠκόνησαν ὡς ῥομφαίαν τὰς γλώσσας αὐτῶν, ἐνέτειναν τόξον αὐτῶν πρᾶγμα πικρὸν
64:3 who have sharpened their tongues as a sword; they have bent their bow maliciously; 64:3 who have sharpened their tongues as a sword; they have bent their bow maliciously;

4 That they may shoot in secret at the perfect; suddenly do they shoot at him, and don't fear.

64:4 τοῦ κατατοξεῦσαι ἐν ἀποκρύφοις ἄμωμον, ἐξάπινα κατατοξεύσουσιν αὐτὸν καὶ οὐ φοβηθήσονται. 64:4 τοῦ κατατοξεῦσαι ἐν ἀποκρύφοις ἄμωμον, ἐξάπινα κατατοξεύσουσιν αὐτὸν καὶ οὐ φοβηθήσονται.
64:4 to shoot in secret at the blameless; they will shoot him suddenly, and will not fear. 64:4 to shoot in secret at the blameless; they will shoot him suddenly, and will not fear.

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

64:5 ἐκραταίωσαν ἑαυτοῖς λόγον πονηρόν, διηγήσαντο τοῦ κρύψαι παγίδας·
εἶπαν, τίς ὄψεται αὐτούς;
64:5 ἐκραταίωσαν ἑαυτοῖς λόγον πονηρόν, διηγήσαντο τοῦ κρύψαι παγίδας, εἶπαν·
τίς ὄψεται αὐτούς;

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

64:6 ἐξηρεύνησαν ἀνομίας, ἐξέλιπον ἐξερευνῶντες ἐξερευνήσει.
προσελεύσεται ἄνθρωπος, καὶ καρδία βαθεῖα,
64:6 ἐξηρεύνησαν ἀνομίαν, ἐξέλιπον ἐξερευνῶντες ἐξερευνήσεις.. προσελεύσεται ἄνθρωπος, καὶ καρδία βαθεῖα,
64:6 They have searched out iniquity; they have wearied themselves with searching diligently, a man shall approach and the heart is deep, 64:6 They have searched out iniquity; they have wearied themselves with searching diligently, a man shall approach and the heart is deep,

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

64:7 καὶ ὑψωθήσεται θεός.
βέλος νηπίων ἐγενήθησαν αἱ πληγαὶ αὐτῶν,
64:7 καὶ ὑψωθήσεται, Θεός.
βέλος νηπίων ἐγενήθησαν αἱ πληγαὶ αὐτῶν,
64:7 and God shall be exalted, their wounds were caused by the weapon of the foolish children, 64:7 and God shall be exalted, their wounds were caused by the weapon of the foolish children,

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

64:8 καὶ ἐξησθένησαν ἐπ' αὐτοὺς αἱ γλῶσσαι αὐτῶν.
ἐταράχθησαν πάντες οἱ θεωροῦντες αὐτούς,
64:8 καὶ ἐξησθένησαν ἐπ' αὐτοὺς αἱ γλῶσσαι αὐτῶν.
ἐταράχθησαν πάντες οἱ θεωροῦντες αὐτούς,
64:8 and their tongues have set him at nought, all that saw them were troubled; 64:8 and their tongues have set him at nought, all that saw them were troubled;

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

64:9 καὶ ἐφοβήθη πᾶς ἄνθρωπος.
καὶ ἀνήγγειλαν τὰ ἔργα τοῦ θεοῦ καὶ τὰ ποιήματα αὐτοῦ συνῆκαν.
