Psalms 64:8 Context
6They search out iniquities, they accomplish a diligent search: both the inward thought of euery one of them, and the heart, is deepe. 7But God shall shoote at them: with an arrowe, sodenly shall they be wounded. 8So they shall make their owne tongue to fall vpon themselues: all that see them, shall flee away. 9And all men shall feare, and shall declare the worke of God; for they shall wisely consider of his doing. 10The righteous shalbe glad in the Lord, and shall trust in him; and all the vpright in heart shall glory.
