Psalms 56:5 (KJV)
Commentary on Psalms 56:5
Enemies' continual twisting of David's words ('wrest my words') reveals the weapon of slander. The Hebrew 'atsab' (pain/grieve) shows how verbal assault injures. All their thoughts being 'against me for evil' indicates comprehensive hostility, prefiguring Christ who faced constant opposition seeking grounds for accusation (Matthew 22:15).
