Psalms 62:3
How long will you threaten a man?
What it says
David asks how long the attackers will assail a man like a wall already leaning and tottering.
What it is doing
This verse portrays both the pressure of the attack and the vulnerability it aims to exploit.
In context
1For the choirmaster. According to Jeduthun. A Psalm of David. 2He alone is my rock and my salvation. 3How long will you threaten a man? 4They fully intend to cast him down from his lofty perch; 5Rest in God alone, O my soul, 6He alone is my rock and my salvation; 7My salvation and my honor rest on God, my strong rock; 8Trust in Him at all times, O people; 9Lowborn men are but a vapor; 10Place no trust in extortion 11God has spoken once; 12and loving devotion to You, O Lord.
