Psalms 59:8

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

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

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.

10 My God of loving devotion will come to meet me; God will let me stare down my foes.

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.
