Psalms
Chapter
64
{David's
Detailed Counter-Insurgency Prayer (from II Samuel 15:30 and following)}
{Verses
1-6: 'Prayer under pressure'/'Motus Operendi of Conspiracy'}
1~~{Subscript
- Title}
To
the chief Musician
{of the musical division - the band and choir - 4000 people} . . .
a
Psalm of David.
1b~~Hear
my voice, O 'Elohiym/Godhead . . . in my prayer . . .
guard
my life from the terror {pressure} of the enemy.
2~~Cause
me to be hid
from
the conspiracy of the wicked/'evil ones' . . .
{Ahithophel, Absalom and David's nephew Amasa (commander of
revolutionary army}
from
the revolt/insurrection/mob
of
the workers of iniquity.
{primarily believers out of fellowship}
{Note: This is the revolt of David's son Absalom. These 'wicked' are those who reject David's authority.}
{Description
of the Pressure}
3~~Who
sharpen their tongue like a sword
and
bend their bows to shoot their arrows . . .
even
bitter words.
{maligning, slander, judging, gossip, etc.}
4~~They
who shoot 'from ambush'/'in secret'
at
the equipped/complete/honorable
{doctrine in the soul - mature and in some form of authority} . . .
suddenly
. . . do they shoot at him . . . and fear not.
5~~They encourage themselves in an evil matter.
They decide to lay snares privately.
They
say/think, 'Who shall see them?'
{Conspiring in secret}
{Invasion
of David's Privacy}
6~~They
'search out iniquities'/'spy iniquities'/'plot injustice'.
They
accomplish a diligent search.
{observe David until can find a sin/failure they can exploit}
Both
the inward thought of every one of them . . .
and
the right lobe {heart} . . . is deep/devious.
{deep in evil to the point of being devious}
{Verses
7-10: Divine Punishment for the Conspiracy}
{Intervention
of God - Sins of the Tongue Discipline}
7~~But
'Elohiym/Godhead will shoot at them with an arrow . . .
{divine punishment}
suddenly
. . . shall they be wounded.
{Note: Self-induced misery and compounded discipline. In judging for example, 1) self-induced misery; 2) your sin has its own discipline; and 3) if you mention a sin, then God 's judgement of their sin is applied to YOU - also see Matthew.}
8~~So
they shall make their own tongue
to
fall upon themselves
{tongue weighs a ton and will smash you to bits} . . .
all
that see them shall flee away.
{Human
Reaction}
9~~And
all men shall fear,
{will have respect for God's laws for establishment and authority}
and
shall declare the work of Elohiym/Godhead.
For they shall wisely consider of His doing.
10~~
The righteous shall be glad in Jehovah/God . . .
and
shall trust/'take refuge' in Him.
And
all the upright/honorable in the 'right lobe'/heart' . . .
shall
rejoice/glory.
