Psalms 35:20
Assamese - 2019 (ইণ্ডিয়ান ৰিভাইচ ভাৰচন (IRV) আচামিচ - 2019)
What Does This Mean?
This verse is a plea from someone who is being unfairly targeted. The speaker is complaining about people who do not wish peace but instead plot against those who are living quietly and peacefully. The message is about the troubles faced by innocent people due to the malicious intentions of others.
Explained for Children
Imagine you are playing nicely in the playground, and some kids are whispering about how they want to cause trouble for you. They are not being friendly or peaceful; instead, they are planning mean things to upset you. This verse is like that, but it's about grown-ups who are trying to make life hard for good people.
Historical Background
This verse is part of Psalm 35, written by David. It reflects a time when David faced enemies who were plotting against him even though he was peaceful. The psalms were often written in response to real-life situations, and this one is no exception, showing the challenges David faced.
Living It Out Today
Today, this verse can apply to situations where someone faces bullying or unfair treatment from others who are not content with peace and instead seek to cause harm. For example, in a workplace, a hard-working employee might find colleagues scheming to sabotage their efforts out of jealousy or malice.
