O God, listen to my complaint.
    Protect my life from my enemies’ threats.
2 Hide me from the plots of this evil mob,
    from this gang of wrongdoers.
3 They sharpen their tongues like swords
    and aim their bitter words like arrows.
4 They shoot from ambush at the innocent,
    attacking suddenly and fearlessly.
5 They encourage each other to do evil
    and plan how to set their traps in secret.
    “Who will ever notice?” they ask.
6 As they plot their crimes, they say,
    “We have devised the perfect plan!”
    Yes, the human heart and mind are cunning.

What emotions are stirred within you when you read verses 2-6?
