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

Verse 5 is found in chapter 64 of Psalms. Psalm 64 asks for protection from conspiracies and hidden verbal attacks. Enemies use words like arrows and prepare their plans from concealed places, but God can turn those weapons against those who prepared them. The community’s response to divine judgment is a combination of reverent fear and trust. The psalm ends by presenting God’s justice as a cause of joy for the upright.

daß sie heimlich schießen die Frommen; plötzlich schießen sie auf ihn ohne alle Scheu.
Obstinados en su inicuo designio, Tratan de esconder los lazos, Y dicen: ¿Quién los ha de ver?
Se animan unos a otros en sus planes malvados; hablan de ocultar trampas y dicen: «¿Quién las verá?».
Ils se fortifient dans leur méchanceté: Ils se concertent pour tendre des pièges, Ils disent: Qui les verra?
Fermano fra loro pensieri malvagi; Divisano di tender di nascosto lacci, Dicono: Chi li vedrà?
Firmam-se em mau intento; falam de armar laços secretamente, e dizem: Quem os verá?
他們彼此勉勵,設下惡計; 他們商量,暗設圈套, 說:「誰能看見呢?」
