Psalms 17:13

Arise, Lord (Yahweh)!
Confront him (stand against his face)!
Bring him down to his knees!
Save my life (soul – Hebr. nefesh) from the godless (wicked, evil), your sword.
[The first two verbs give a nice rhythm to the language. Stand up is kumah and go confront is kadmah. The word "sword" in this verse can be interpreted in two ways. The sword can be a parallel to "God's hand" in the next verse. The sword then becomes a weapon in God's hand when he intervenes and defends the righteous. It is also possible to see it as the wicked being God's sword in his service. The latter interpretation means that the wicked are sometimes God's instruments for carrying out his judgment. This idea is not foreign to the Bible, see Isa. 10:5–7; Jer. 51:20.]
