Psalms 59:7

5 O LORD God of Hosts, the God of Israel, rouse Yourself to punish all the nations; show no mercy to the wicked traitors. Selah

6 They return in the evening, snarling like dogs and prowling around the city.

See what they spew from their mouths— sharp words from their lips: “For who can hear us?”

8 But You, O LORD, laugh at them; You scoff at all the nations.

9 I will keep watch for You, O my strength, because You, O God, are my fortress.

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.
