Context of Psalms 59:13
11Slay them not, lest my people forget: scatter them by thy power; and bring them down, O Lord our shield. 12For the sin of their mouth and the words of their lips let them even be taken in their pride: and for cursing and lying which they speak. Consume them in wrath, consume them, that they may not be : and let them know that God ruleth in Jacob to the ends of the earth. Selah. 14And at evening let them return; and let them make a noise like a dog, and go about the city. 15Let them wander up and down for food, and murmur if they are not satisfied.
