“Arise, O Lord, disappoint him, cast him down: deliver my soul from the wicked, which is thy sword:”
The imperative to arise and confront the wicked and deliver the speaker invokes God to active intervention. The call to arise echoes the lament psalms and suggests rousing God to action. The command to confront establishes that God must engage the enemies directly rather than permitting them to proceed. This verse transitions from description of danger to invocation of divine action.
