Psalms 59:6

4 They run and prepare themselves through no fault of mine.
^aAwake to help me, and behold!

5 You therefore, O Lord God of hosts, the God of Israel,
Awake to punish all the¹ nations;
Do not be merciful to any wicked transgressors. Selah

6 ^aAt evening they return,
They growl like a dog,
And go all around the city.

7 Indeed, they belch with their mouth;
^aSwords are in their lips;
For they say, ^b“Who hears?”

8 But ^aYou, O Lord, shall laugh at them;
You shall have all the¹ nations in derision.

Psalms 59:6

They return at evening - When the beasts of prey leave their dens, and go prowling about the cities and villages to get offal, and entrap domestic animals, these come about the city to see if they may get an entrance, destroy the work, and those engaged in it.
