35:8 Let destruction take them by surprise! 1
Let the net they hid catch them!
Let them fall into destruction! 2
1 tn Heb “let destruction [which] he does not know come to him.” The singular is used of the enemy in v. 8, probably in a representative or collective sense. The psalmist has more than one enemy, as vv. 1-7 make clear.
2 tn The psalmist’s prayer for his enemies’ demise continues. See vv. 4-6.
