Psalm 143:11-12 Part 3 of 4

For the glory of your name, O LORD, preserve my life.

    for I am your servant. 

 

In your unfailing love, silence all my enemies and destroy all my foes, ...

    They deliberately forget that God made the heavens long ago by the word of his command, and he brought the earth out from the water and surrounded it with water.

They are being kept for the day of judgment, when ungodly people will be destroyed.  (see all 2 Peter 3)

and all who fear your name,

    from the least to the greatest.

It is time to destroy

    all who have caused destruction on the earth."  (see all Revelation 11)
