Psalm 64:5-7

New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised Catholic Edition

⁵They hold fast to their evil purpose;
    they talk of laying snares secretly,
thinking, ‘Who can see us?^[a]
⁶    Who can search out our crimes?^[b]
We have thought out a cunningly conceived plot.’
    For the human heart and mind are deep.

⁷But God will shoot his arrow at them;
they will be wounded suddenly.
