“For they speak not peace: but they devise deceitful matters against them that are quiet in the land.”
Psalms 35:20 (KJV)
Commentary on Psalms 35:20
Those 'quiet in the land' (Hebrew 'shaanan,' peaceful, secure, trusting) represents innocent people living in covenant fidelity. Wicked individuals specifically target such people because righteousness exposes their evil (John 3:20). The plotting of 'deceitful matters' rather than honest confrontation reveals moral corruption—they lack even the courage of open opposition, instead employing cunning schemes against the defenseless.
