Revised Standard Version

⁴shooting from ambush at the blameless,
    shooting at him suddenly and without fear.
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 inward mind and heart of a man are deep!
