Psalm 138:7
βThough I walk in the midst of trouble, thou wilt revive me: thou shalt stretch forth thine hand against the wrath of mine enemies, and thy right hand shall save me.β
KJV
Read in Psalm 138Meaning
Preservation is hoped for inside real danger rather than a life free of suffering.
Read carefully
The verse voices trust in trouble; it gives no guarantee of bodily invulnerability or mandate for private violence.
Reflection
Seek preservation without converting enemy language into retaliation.
