“Let them melt away as waters which run continually: when he bendeth his bow to shoot his arrows, let them be as cut in pieces.”
Psalms 58:7 (KJV)
Commentary on Psalms 58:7
The dual images of melting water and broken arrows emphasize the complete negation of the wicked's power. Water that 'runs continually away' (Hebrew 'halak'—walk/go) depicts dissipation and futility. Arrows 'cut in pieces' represents weapons rendered useless. This demonstrates God's sovereignty—He can reduce the mighty to nothing, anticipated in Mary's Magnificat (Luke 1:51-53).
