The eyes of the LORD keep watch over knowledge, but he frustrates the words of the unfaithful—a statement that God protects those pursuing wisdom and knowledge while opposing those who speak falsehood. The metaphor 'eyes of the LORD' (enei YHWH) describes God's omniscience and care. The consequence for the unfaithful is that their words are 'frustrated' (yesalef), thwarted or overturned. The theological significance involves the principle that God actively guards wisdom and opposes deception.
