NET © Notes

tn Heb “there the workers of wickedness have fallen.” The adverb שָׁם (sham, “there”) is used here for dramatic effect, as the psalmist envisions the evildoers lying fallen at a spot that is vivid in his imagination (BDB 1027 s.v.).

tn The psalmist uses perfect verbal forms in v. 12 to describe the demise of the wicked as if it has already taken place.
