Psalm 68:2
βAs smoke is driven away, so drive them away: as wax melteth before the fire, so let the wicked perish at the presence of God.β
KJV
Read in Psalm 68Meaning
The similes intensify the opening claim that violent resistance cannot finally stand before God.
God rises, enemies scatter, and the vulnerable find a home
The opening joins divine victory with joy, worship, care for orphans and widows, and a home for the isolated.
Read carefully
It is divine-judgment poetry, not a human targeting mandate.
Reflection
Resist despair without taking revenge into your own hands.
