Psalms 59:15
13 Consume them in wrath; consume them till they are no more, so it may be known to the ends of the earth that God rules over Jacob. Selah
14 They return in the evening, snarling like dogs and prowling around the city.
They scavenge for food, and growl if they are not satisfied.
16 But I will sing of Your strength and proclaim Your loving devotion in the morning. For You are my fortress, my refuge in times of trouble.
17 To You, O my strength, I sing praises, for You, O God, are my fortress, my God of loving devotion.
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.
