Commentary on Psalms 56:6
The enemies' tactics—gathering, hiding, marking steps—reveal coordinated, deliberate persecution. 'They wait for my soul' indicates their murderous intent. Yet David's recounting of these details to God demonstrates confidence that omniscience sees all plots. Nothing escapes divine notice, ensuring that persecution serves God's sovereign purposes despite appearing random or unjust.
