Holy Scripture
Psalms 35:5
A church father on this verse
“What of others? For all are not so conquered as to be converted and believe: many continue in obstinacy, many preserve in heart the spirit of going before, and if they exert it not, yet they labour with it, and finding opportunity bring it forth. Of such, what followeth? "Let them be as dust before the wind" (ver. 5).…”

3For he has dealt craftily before him, To discover his iniquity and hate it.
4The words of his mouth are transgression and deceit: He is not inclined to understand how to do good.

6O Lord, thy mercy is in the heaven; And thy truth reaches to the clouds.
7Thy righteousness is as the mountains of God, Thy judgments are as a great deep: O Lord, thou wilt preserve men and beasts.
