Psalms 55:9

7 How far away I would flee! In the wilderness I would remain. Selah

8 I would hurry to my shelter, far from this raging tempest.”

O Lord, confuse and confound their speech, for I see violence and strife in the city.

10 Day and night they encircle the walls, while malice and trouble lie within.

11 Destruction is within; oppression and deceit never leave the streets.

Dette ble sagt til Israel i en bestemt tid, så det er lurt å lese det sammen med teksten rundt. Les gjerne versene rundt også, for sammenhengen gir ofte mer enn ett vers alene.
