psalms 58:9 Before your pots can feel the thorns, he shall take them away as with a whirlwind, both living, and in his wrath. - Free Bible Online

psalms 58:9 Before your pots can feel [the fire of] thorns, He will sweep them away with a whirlwind, the green and the burning alike.


      9. he shall take them away as with a whirlwind--literally, "blow him (them) away."
      both living . . . wrath--literally, "as the living" or fresh as the heated or burning--that is, thorns--all easily blown away, so easily and quickly the wicked. The figure of the "snail" perhaps alludes to its loss of saliva when moving. Though obscure in its clauses, the general sense of the passage is clear.
