Psaume 141:10

10 Que les méchants tombent dans leurs filets, Et que j'échappe en même temps!

Psaume 141:10 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 141:10

Let the wicked fall into their own nets
Which they have laid for others, as they very often do; see ( Psalms 7:15 Psalms 7:16 ) ; or "into his net" F11, either Saul into his own net, and others with him, so Kimchi and Ben Melech; or the wicked into the net which God has laid for them; see ( Ezekiel 12:13 ) ;

whilst that I withal escape;
or "whilst I together escape", or "pass over" F12; that is, while he, together with his companions, passed over the net laid; or,

``till I pass over safe and sound,''

will all mine, as Noldius F13; not only pass over and escape the snares of the wicked, but pass out of this world into a state of happiness and glory in another.

Psaume 141:10 In-Context

8 C'est vers toi, Eternel, Seigneur! que se tournent mes yeux, C'est auprès de toi que je cherche un refuge: N'abandonne pas mon âme!
9 Garantis-moi du piège qu'ils me tendent, Et des embûches de ceux qui font le mal!
10 Que les méchants tombent dans leurs filets, Et que j'échappe en même temps!
