Psalms 64:5
3 who sharpen their tongues like swords and aim their bitter words like arrows,
4 ambushing the innocent in seclusion, shooting suddenly, without fear.
They hold fast to their evil purpose; they speak of hiding their snares. “Who will see them?” they say.
6 They devise injustice and say, “We have perfected a secret plan.” For the inner man and the heart are mysterious.
7 But God will shoot them with arrows; suddenly they will be wounded.
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.
