 For they have whetted their tongues like a sword: * they have bent their bow a bitter thing, to shoot in secret the undefiled.

They will shoot at him on a sudden, and will not fear: * they are resolute in wickedness.

They have talked of hiding snares: * they have said: Who shall see them?

They have searched after iniquities: * they have failed in their search.

Man shall come to a deep heart: * and God shall be exalted.

The arrows of children are their wounds: * and their tongues against them are made weak.

All that saw them were troubled: * and every man was afraid.

And they declared the works of God: * and understood his doings.

The just shall rejoice in the Lord, and shall hope in him: * and all the upright in heart shall be praised.

Glory be to the Father and to the Son and to the Holy Ghost.
