59:3For look, they wait to ambush me;5
powerful men stalk6 me,
but not because I have rebelled or sinned, O Lord.7
Footnotes
- 5 Heb “my life.”
- 6 The Hebrew verb is from the root גּוּר (gur), which means “to challenge, attack” in Isa 54:15 and “to stalk” (with hostile intent) in Ps 56:8.
- 7 The point is that the psalmist’s enemies have no justifiable reason for attacking him. He has neither rebelled or sinned against the Lord.
