Psalms, 64

2. Hear, O God, my voice as I plead, protect my life from the enemy's threat.

3. Hide me from the scheming of the wicked, from the designs of the evil-plotters,

4. who sharpen their tongues like swords and aim bitter words like arrows,

5. shooting at the innocent from cover, shooting suddenly without fear.

6. They invite each other to evil-doing, they conspire to lay snares, saying, "No one will see us,

7. who will uncover our scheme?" Who peers into man will uncover them.

8. And now God fires his arrows at them and suddenly they are struck down.

9. Their own tongue brought them to ruin and all who see them shake their heads.

10. Everyone will stand in awe; they proclaim the works of God and ponder on his deeds.

11. The upright will rejoice and take refuge in the Lord; the upright of heart will glory in him.

Versi relativi a Psalms, 64:

Psalm 64 is a psalm of supplication, where the psalmist cries to God to protect him from his enemies. He asks God to defend him of those who plot against Him and those who speak ill of Him in the back. The psalmist has confidence that God will protect him and that his enemies will be defeated. Below are five verses related to the topics covered in Psalm 64:

Psalm 3:3-4: "But you, Lord, are a shield to me, my glory, and what exalts my head. With my voice I cry to the Lord, and heard me from his holy mountain." Like the psalmist in Psalm 64, the psalmist in Psalm 3 trusts God's protection against his enemies. He cries out God for help and knows that God will hear His prayers.

Psalm 27:1: "The Lord is my light and my salvation; whom will I fear? Is the Lord the strength of my life; whom will I fear me?" This verse shows the confidence that the psalmist has in God to protect him and guide him at all times.

Psalm 31:15: "My hours are in your hands; deliver me from the hands of my enemies and those who chase me." The psalmist in Psalm 64 asks God to protect him from his enemies and those who plot against him. This verse in Psalm 31 makes a similar request.

Psalm 37:39-40: "But the salvation of the righteous comes from the Lord; He is his fortress in the time of anguish. The Lord helps them and delivers them; He delivers them from the wicked and saves them, because they take refuge in Him." This verse reinforces the idea that God is the source of protection and security for the righteous. The psalmist in Psalm 64 trusts God to deliver him from his enemies.

Psalm 91:2: "I will tell the Lord, He is my God, my refuge, my fortress, and I will trust in Him." This verse highlights the importance of trusting God for protection and security. The psalmist in Psalm 64 has the same confidence in God as the psalmist in Psalm 91.





“Pobres e desafortunadas as almas que se envolvem no turbilhão de preocupações deste mundo. Quanto mais amam o mundo, mais suas paixões crescem, mais queimam de desejos, mais se tornam incapazes de atingir seus objetivos. E vêm, então, as inquietações, as impaciências e terríveis sofrimentos profundos, pois seus corações não palpitam com a caridade e o amor. Rezemos por essas almas desafortunadas e miseráveis, para que Jesus, em Sua infinita misericórdia, possa perdoá-las e conduzi-las a Ele.” São Padre Pio de Pietrelcina
